if your lights dim under throttle...etc...my FIX!
ok guys, so my civic had a problem which consists of:
all the vehicle lights would dim under throttle regularly, usually at WOT.
(i know i shoulda snapped pictures but i found the problem...for my car atleast)
so if you have this problem...
take a look at your alternator fisheye ground. (mine was corroded to crap....dont know how, but it was...and in return my power wasnt getting grounded properly)
if it looks like crap and doesnt look like it transfers current very well (like rust or corrosion) de crimp it and go to wal mart and buy a package of 3M fisheye connectors (make sure you buy almost the same gauge or thicker!) and crimp one of those on your existing wiring harness.
now your vehicle should be fixed of this "light dimming problem"
thank god that was the problem (with my civic), cost me a whole 4 dollars......but way easier and cheaper than a new alternator or something.
