in my 88 crx si i would drive it at night and the dash lights would go so dim from the headlights i could barley read them so i bought a new alternator and put it an and now they dim when i let off the gas but not as much. I've had the new alternator checked once and it seemed to be ok but im having it checked again tommarow. Any ideas?

 

mybe your grounds>..

 

its bolted to the engine in 2 places but i can check teh engine grounds tonight or tommmarow night

 

Have you battery tested, If its 4 years old or more, just replace it. If its too old it will never fully recharge!!

 

Get alt checked. As I have said in many other threads, I got a bad alt right out of the box and installed it.

HAVE ALL ALT CHECKED BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE STORE

 

put a new battery in it last month and had the new alternator checked 2ce one of the times was today do you know anything about the alternator control unit
