weird electrical problem. Alt?
Last week I started having a weird electrical problem. Pretty much every light on the cluster that works on a ground are lit up when I was driving except for the brake light.
It was no big deal it would happen every once in awhile. they would turn on than off some times flash on and off really fast. At one time the trunk light would turn off well the others are on. I thought it was a wire being grounded out but I haven't found one yet
then came the other problems after a few days I noticed the lights would start to dim and than go back to normal. Then the car would start to bog at low RPMs and than go away after I hit around 2500-3000 RPMs. the grounded lights also started to trun off when Vtec would engage and it was not doing that before. Now my car is dying I can't driving it with out it dying after a few minutes. One time when it died on me I popped the clutch and it started back up. The cluster lights turned off and the problem went away for about 10 minutes and everything was working fine than the lights came back on and it died again.
