Civic 1998 problems
Greetings once again ya'll.
So I'm having a few problems with my 1998 Honda civic Automatic with 165k Miles.
Recently My car was throwing codes for:
P0501 VSS
P0135 o2 Sensor
P0325 Knock Sensor
So I replaced all of these parts and the codes keep coming back. All the parts where purchased from Autozone and have warrenty and I don't think that is the problem. Recently the cars lights (In dash, and outside) have been flickering and when the car is at idle, it sounds like a child saying "room room" very slowly nonstop.... (Hope you know what i mean)... Anyways the idle sounds like it's off a tad, the CEL is constantly on and the codes listed previously won't go away.
I did a Ghetto alternator test, "Unplugg the ground while the car is on". and the car struggled to stay on and the lights wen't nutts... Possibly indicating that the alternator is going bad... I'm wondering though if it could be some of the fuses or possibly some of the ground running through the car. Any ideas would be awesome. I will be taking it to autozone to test the alternator.
Thanks in advance.
