I THINK I HAVE A SHORT

[sirhatch1030]

MY TRUNK LIGHTS START FLIKERING AROUND 75-80MPH , IT USE TO DO IT AROUND 100-130 MPH , JUST WINDERING HAS ANY ONE HAD THIS PROBLEM , IT IS A 93 EG HATCH. THANKS

[blacknightteg]

how the fuck do you know if your trunk likghts flickering at 80mph? what do you do drive around with that shit open and flapping?

[IntegraXTR]

do you have a system? that may be the reason if so

[sirhatch1030]

IM TALKING ABOUT THE LIGHT WHEN YOU POP UR TRUNK , ON THE CLUSTER ,THE HATCH LIGHT .

do you have a system? that may be the reason if so


yup, if so, get a cap

[sirhatch1030]

NO SYSTEM . BUT IT HAS A ALARM.

[B16a2 Civic]

so the open trunk light indicator is goin off on the cluster?

how the fuck do you know if your trunk likghts flickering at 80mph? what do you do drive around with that shit open and flapping?probably doesn't have interior....i can't see shit backing up at night unless i turn the lights off.


so the open trunk light indicator is goin off on the cluster?ohh, trunk open light or actual taillights on the trunk?

[sirhatch1030]

HAS ALL INTERIOER , YES IT IS THE INDICATOR .

[sirhatch1030]

TRUNK INDICATOR , SORRY.

hmmm, i thoguht it was the tail lights....hmmm, sounds like maybe a pinched wire or something

[speedminded]

hmmm, i thoguht it was the tail lights....hmmm, sounds like maybe a pinched wire or somethinghe did say lights as in plural and there is only one trunk open light so assumed it was taillights also.

[speedminded]

as for the light coming on....does opening or closing the windows effect it? I'm sure the wind/pressure is pushing it just enough....maybe pull the switch off and put a washer underneath it so it fits more snuggly against the hatch...or is the switch build into the latch?

[sirhatch1030]

I ROLLED UP THE WINDOWS AND IT STILL HAPPENS , THATS WHAT I THOUGHT IT WAS BUT ITS NOT .

[B16a2 Civic]

pinched wire maybe
bad sensor?

[sirhatch1030]

WERE WOULD THAT WIRE BE LOC , AND IF THE SENSOR WHY ONLY AT 60-75 MPH.

[B16a2 Civic]

i've never had this problem, im just giving typical problems when it comes to electronics and wires
what i would suggest is take out the cluster and check teh back.

[sirhatch1030]

I ALREADY HAVE .

[B16a2 Civic]

is the cluster old?

[BABY J]

It's a simple switch, spray WD40 on it and it will open the circuit all the way (when the hatch = closed).

[IntegraXTR]

^^ never heard that one before, I was gonna say maybe you have a short in your gauge cluster.

[sirhatch1030]

not the cluster , ive swap them out .
