Ok guys...it's a long story...so i'll try to explain it with tab so it's easier to understand.........

- Yesterday, if you remember, I revived an old thread about flickering.......basically, yesterday i took out my side rear panels so the dent wizard can fix my dents on my rear quarter panel...

-so, he fixed my dents....and that same day, i put back the panels....and seats.....during this time, i used the dome like since it was gettin dark...

-after i turned on my car...i noticed that my whole car was flickering....including the tach....turning lights, everthing...that's when i posted on that thread.....afterward, i went to taco bell...everything was ok....then i slept

-the next day, as planned, i wanna go to auto store to buy stuff to clean the connection in my battery, at that time, i notice that i can't open my car with my remote.....when i open it with key and get on....i noticed the whole dash indicator light (SRS, ABS, etc etc was all on.........) .....and i CAN't start my car....

-at this time, i suspect the battery......I took out the subwoofer cable, i jump-start my car with my friend's car.....dash light was all still on.....and i can't start it....i played with the headlight during the jump-start...and somehow the dash light was all of....then, i was able to start my car! i drove it around....but then, after i turned the car off....i can't start it again....i jump start it again...try again with the headlight...but nothing happened...

-so, i took the battery out...brought it to auto store....let them check it out and test it...turns out the battery is in 'Good Condition - Low Charge', so...they charged it back.....15 minutes approx.

- i went back to my house, put it back on the car.....but...when i put the terminals back in....the same dash light turned on...and still, i can't start my car...

-after this, i jump-start my car again......the dash light was still turned on....and i CAN'T start my car................HOWEVER....when i played with the wiper.......suddenly the dash light was all of (again).......THIS TIME...i can actually start my car!! [NOW I KNOW....there's something wrong with the electric]

-i brought my car to auto store....they checked my battery and my alternator.....turns out that everything was OK......then, i planned get my car checked...but the honda service was closed...so i planned to drop it off on the dealer...and went back home with my bro..

-i arrived on the dealer...parked it.....and.....WHEN i turned it OFF...and took out the KEY...the damn engine was still working!! this time, i KNEW what i should do...I PLAYED with the wiper, then they all went off!

+strange thing is that, AFTER this incident...suddenly my car went back to normal!!!! no dash light....it starts up normally..... i turned it on and off...several times....it's just back to normal!

-so, i decided to went back home......and decided to bring my car to honda the next day............back home, when i got out of my car and want to lock it with the remote.......i NOTICED that the turning light didn't lights up! u know that it should lights up when u use the remote, right?

-I quickly checked out the fuses for the turning light and hazard light on the outside fuse box........turns out TWO fuses (number 2 and number 5, 7.5A and 10A) are blown!!! Now, i though.......'hey, maybe if i replace this, everything will be ok!" ------WRONG! when i put the extra fuse back into the slot, THE DASH LIGHT LIT ON EXACTLY THE SAME LIKE BEFORE! either i put the 7.5 or 10A back to it's slot...the dash light and the beep are back on!

-this is pretty much the end of my story....i put the bad fuses back on....my car currently working just fine...it starts, the turning light are working properly when the car is running (THANK GOD ) however, they're dead when i turn off the car...........of coarse, due to the fuses......

any idea what's going on?? sh~t.........there's definitely some electrical problem going on in my car

please help! i will probably gonna put my car into the dealer.........but what i hate is that...my car is 38000!! 36000 was just 2000 miles ago another problem is that....they (honda) probably blame the big blue subwoofer power cable

thanx in advance...thanx for reading....

haha so sorry to laugh but the wiper thing.

just wow though thats terrible!
so you know electrical problems take forever to find and fix so beware that your car will be gone a while at a dealership for this one.
i just hope you have the warranty!

electrical problems are a bitch to track down. They might intially blame it on your ICE, but just remind them of the magnum moss act. They have to trace it back to the modification and show that it caused your car troubles to void your warrenty

the thing is buddy.......

there's no more warranty on my car........3 years, 36K....they've passed out...

btw.....like i mentioned on my story.....i pretty much know exactly which one is the actual problem......which is number 2 adn 5 on the fuse box....does that even help?

well i got my starter fixed by wednesday. they even drove 40 mins to pick up the part and get it in by 6pm wednesday before they closed since they are such a great staff at the dealership i bought from (toyota dealership, owner also has honda and ford ones too, but farther away)

It was $0. anyway i got my rsx seats in now too. look not great since they dont match well but are amazing!
