    Default HELP!!! weired stuff!!!

    Ok so i have a 91 integra ls, with a 94 gsr motor in it and the stock ls trans. I was putting in a new clutch, and i took out the battery. I put it on the floor of my garage. I totally forgot this was bad, so when i put it back in the car i had to jump it off. When i did the car started fine. The only thing is that when i turn on anything in the car it puts a massive draw on the rpms, and headlights won't even turn. Also all of my dash lights are really dim, and if i turn on the ac or heater fans, my temp. gauge goes in to the red. Also if i turn the headlights it makes my radio go on and off. I have never had these problems before.


    I have no idea what is going on. PLEASE HELP!!!??!??!??!?!

    Check your alternator.

    If the headlights don't turn on, check all relevant fuses. As regards to the problem of overheating, besides the alternator I mentioned, I'll guess the belt is slipping due to the added load of using the compressor, which in turns slows the cooling fan down, thereby causing the engine to overheat. Have you checked the cooling fan and coolant?
    I think these are enough suggestions for you to work on..

    well see i have HID's and they come for a sec. and then they go off, the temp. goes up as soon as i put the fan on, and goes right back down when i turn the fans off.

    Hmm.. both problems (lights and temp) seem to suggest a wiring issue rather than a component going bad. Are you sure you didn't knock out something out?

    Check your grounds. Is the alternator good? Unhook the positive terminal while the car is running. Does it turn off or continue running?

    i don't think it is the alternator because all the same things happen when the car is off too.

    G force- PM'd. last warning

    C-los-PM'd 1st warning

    Put in a new battery. Your old battery may be so bad that the alt is trying SO HARD to charge it that its having a hard time making enough power for the rest of the car. JUst install new battery then come back to us.
