1997 Honda Civic Check Engine Light, Speedometer
1997 Honda Civic: Automatic
Just got to work and had a heck of time getting in. Owned car since new and have never seen check engine light come on. Today is the first. Pouring rain on the drive, the car started normally and ran nornally. Travelled approx. 4 miles before check engine light came on. Car seemed a bit sluggish but nothing alarming. I noticed the speedometer was not working and upon giving the car gas after stopping for a traffic light -- the speedometer flew past 60 mph as I pulled from the light. Very strange. The needle then went back to zero. I continued to drive and noticed the dash lights were not steady -- they were dimming slightly and then getting bright again. I'm not sure but I think my headlights were doing the same. I pulled off and this odd behavior continued while parked.
I did continue to drive another 8 miles in this condition. I'm guessing I got something very wet when going through a puddle?
Any guidance is appreicated.
