| I recently put in a new alternator when I noticed that my car was living on the battery and the alternator was dead or malfunctioning. The symtoms I had were the Lights were dim then became very dim, light from time became very dim to almost nothing, power lost as I traveld from 2-5 miles, Turn signals fading as usage required, hard start and hesitation when starting until you put gas to it. I had this mechanic do it for me, not nowing if he fully charged the battery first or not. When I as it not hard but fair I hear a buzz sound from the key ignition area. Also now my time(clock) lights have become very dim to almost nothing whe ni have the headlights on. when I turn off the head lights the clock becomes very bright???? The Rpm are also acting funny like droping from 1 to 500ish, alwways scareing me when im at a l ight or traffic. Respond back asap if possible as I've had many problems with this vehicle now. It's a 91 honda civic hb si |
