haywire!!!
Last night my car went a bit haywire! It's a 2001 civic, 1.4 se. I pulled away and ALL the dashboard light, eg ABS, handbrake, battery ect.. were flashing on and off, at the same time the headlights were flickering and the power steering was trying to flick back to the centre!!!

Help..

Could be the alternator or a loose battery connection.

Not charging, low battery voltage. Check battery connections and grounds.
