Weird problem with my civic
When I turn my key on all the lights on the cluster are dim and slowly blink. While all thats happen the main relay clicks like crazy as well. With all this going I can not crank the car when I try the main relay just clicks more. After all that I disconnect the battery for a few mins and then reconnect it. Then after its reconnected the car will start with no problem at all the main relay dont click and the lights dont blink. Any info of what this might be will be really appreciated.
Thanks
sounds like you might have a bad battery connection. ive had a similar problem before and it was because my terminals were corroded.
Yeah a bad battery terminal or a bad ground can cause this. I had the same issue with my old civic and it was the ground wire on the engine near the coolant temp sensor.
i had the sames problems awhile back, i fixed it with the suggestions stated above
Should of bought a ef lol we just need to redo all your grounds and see if that fixes it
Well this morning I went out to crank it up and it did the same. After I disconnected the battery it still didn't work. I guess when I get off work I'll go home and check all my grounds real good.
battery terminal shorts
^^^should I replace it
Just got home and check and cleaned all my grounds. Now when I try to start it the main relay isn't clicking anymore and now the cluster lights just go completely out.
Check the grounds again sounds still like its a bad grounding issueOriginally Posted by redneckhatch
We fixed it it was the ground wire on the battery it was green inside the connector
^^^ what do you mean WE fixed it. You got that when I was about done I think you held the flash light for 5 mins. Yea but thanks again for who all replied.
