Many of the 6th gen Accord V6 came with the Delphi alternator, which was not a very good alternator. It may be ready to go...

it most likely means your alternator started to fail n kicked itself back in and will go dead on you very soon....replace it before hand

as for the door lights n all they come on when the electrical system does....thus the alternator kicking back in
