ANY BUYING/SELLING IN THIS FORUM WILL RESULT IN AN INSTANT BAN!

Read the rules: http://www.cb7tuner.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=43956

Myself, and the other mods have been very nice and lenient with the rules. We have been deleting threads, and giving out warnings. Some members didn't get the clue and re-posted over and over... Now ANY member buying or selling in this section will be banned... No IF's AND's or BUT's.

Beginner Forum Rules - EVERYBODY read! (old and new members alike!)

Beginners start here. Once you have 30 worthwhile posts (off topic doesn't count) you may post outside of the Beginner forums. Any "whoring" (posting simply to raise your post count) will return your count to 0, or result in a ban.

These are the rules. Read them. Live by them.

1) Absolutely NO flaming! "Flaming" is an outright attack on a member. ALL questions are encouraged to be asked here, no matter how basic. Members with over 30 posts will be subject to a ONE WEEK ban if caught flaming in this forum (and yes, moderators can read deleted posts). Members with under 30 posts will be subject to a ONE DAY ban.

2) Use appropriate language. Racial or sexual slurs will not be tolerated. A ban will be issued at the discretion of the cb7tuner.com staff.

3) No items may be sold in the Beginner forums. Any "for sale" threads will be deleted.

4) Temporarily banned members will be PERMANTLY banned if they are found posting on another account.

The rules can and will be added to. Any updates will be marked in the title.

The rules for the overall forum can be found here:

Read them. You will be expected to follow them.

    electrical problem...can anyone help?

    Ok so here's what happens out of know where a few weeks ago a buddy told me that my reverse lights were on while i was driving...since he told me that i also noticed that evrytime i hit my brakes all the lghts inside my car get brighter and so do my front turn signals. I tried looking for a bad ground but no luck and I've also checked all my fuses and there all good. Dos anyone know what the problem might be. I have a 1990 accord by the way. Any help would be appreciated thanks

    You need a copy of the Helms for the wiring diagrams, and a multimeter. The Horn, Brake lights circuit is joined to the Small Lights circuit, find out where. You'll have to disconnect all the Small Lights and Horn/Brake circuit components and fuses as they all connected to ground at the chassis and to positive at the same battery. One you've done this, the joined section will present itself.

    The Reverse switch may be damaged or the issue may be related to your other problem since all three circuits (reverse, small lights, and brake/horn) have components (light bulbs) in the tail lights.

    Happy hunting.
