I have a 92 Accord LX, 2.2L, Auto. This problem I've been having, has been going on ever since it got cold outside. Well a side note: My Girlfriend was messing around with my glove department, and she got it stuck, and then tried to get it back open, and was pulling on the handle, and broke it. Stupid girl. lol.
Today, I was driving home from work. Then my Headlights started dimming, when I hit the Brake, coming to a red light. When accelerating, after sitting for about 20 seconds, the power restores, lights get brighter. Hit the brake again, this really akward whining noise starts coming from the hood. Coud it be the Alternator?
Another side note: Battery is about six months old, so I know that isn't it. New Distributor, Cap, and Roter, also.
I got home and was looking around under the hood, and one of my battery cable was corroded(SP?). Had some extra Coke in the car from McDonalds, so I poured some on it. When to start it, and it's really having a hard time. Like 7 cranks, then I hit the gas pedal, and then it starts. I'm clueless at this point. I kinda lean back in my seat, just trying to think of what the heck is the problem.
What do you know, my light inside of the glove department, has been on this whole time(like 3 days). Remember, my girlfriend broke my handle, so I had to break into this motherfucker. I screwed up my dash in the process,
I went to start it, and it started right up(1st crank). But when it starts, I still get a whining noise after it starts, then it smooths out. Is it the Alternator?
Sorry for the long post, just trying to give the reader as much information as possible, to identify the problem. Thanks.
