thank youComment

Id say check your batt if it just started i had an setup like that in my old accord and the alt powered it fine....i had an red top optoma in that car and it never gave me any probs and i only had an 1 farid cap....Originally posted by pike0825 View Post
Edit....if the batt light is coming on then you need an new alt...or in my case i needed an new belt lol. ...that alt is an refurb thats been upgraded they dont tend to last....it will do the job great for what you have.....but i wouldnt buy an upgraded referb without an warrenty...Last edited by SPLCB7; 05-26-2011, 12:27 AM.Comment

OHH YEAH. dude, this flickering ligth has been on my ass for a year now. i havent done anything about it. im thinking stock alt. cant take the heat.Last edited by pike0825; 05-26-2011, 12:41 AM.Comment

the fact that its been going on for an year and your alt is still working says its prob an ecu or bad wireing....id check the volts at the alt to see though it should run 14 volts all day....if the alt is good id say start at the batt but if it needs an alt then fix it first....your voltege regulator is in your ecu if its going out id worry about that before anything else. ....get that light to stop flickering before anything else.... Or you could end up with an very worse problem down the road.....Originally posted by pike0825 View PostComment

Unless your alt is just crapping out period your stock alt should handle that 1200 watt amp no problem I know its not pushing anywhere near 1200 watts tho,I'd replace the cap and do like a batcap 800.

well this is probably a dumb question. when your alternator is bad, does the battery light automatically come on? and is there any way to prevent it from going bad because i have never changed my alt before, so it does worry me.

If it comes on solid yes your alt is out.... flickering i would guess is voltege regulator....ive changed an few out there not all that hard to do. ...i once had an probe that was an nightmare our cars are easy. Civics are an luttle more tricky but not bad.Originally posted by lilg4mdalbc View Postwell this is probably a dumb question. when your alternator is bad, does the battery light automatically come on? and is there any way to prevent it from going bad because i have never changed my alt before, so it does worry me.Comment

well, i also just replaced ecu with a working one ( my last ecu failed it went on limp mode ) and the flickering continues. you think maybe bad audio wirring? everything looks good and the sound has a lot of potential but maybe i should all wires are new and in good shapeOriginally posted by speedofsound760 View Post
anyway ima get a high output alternator for sure so anyone recommend a good alternator. i got like 150$ to spend on it.Comment

At that point id say replace the alt check belts wireing going to batt and grounds or....i dont have an book on me to check but it could have an relay that went bad.....Originally posted by pike0825 View Post
As far as alts try shucks or auto zone......and they can tell if your alt is bad there just bring in your old one and have it tested....Comment

^^^^ after that point only thing left would be replacing your wire harness or the ecu u got is also bad ive had that happen before two...Comment
