2001 Accord v6 LIGHTS FLICKER
 
Can anyone tell me if they have experienced the same problem I'm having? I have a 2001 accord v6 with 128k runs very good however the lights flicker and the dash lights too when the car is on and this creates a miss in the engine. I tried many things and cant figure it out. Can someone help?

Thanks!

We don't appreciate multiple posting about the same issue...

Is the Check Engine Light on? have you gotten the codes?

How do you know there is a miss in the engine?

Engine rpms change very little up and down. What do you think it is?

Have codes scanned at a parts store. Post the code number on here. They start with the letter P and have 4 numbers. Like P1234.

You can also have the battery/alternator/starter tested while you are there too.

Are the spark plugs due for a change too? Take a look in your owner's manual for the proper interval between changes.

Can you get the car to stall or the interior lights to flicker by shaking the key while the car is running?

After getting the codes scanned, I would disconnect the battery. Then I would clean any corrosion all ends of both battery cables. Also clean the battery posts.

i also have the same problem with the headlight tailight and interior lights flickering. As stupid as it sounds though, i put LED lights in the interior and the flickering makes it look pretty cool lol the head and tail lights i have just come to ignore. If you do try something that works, please by all means let me know. Thanks!
