Just wanna thank anyone in advance for help! i have a 2000 accord se 4 cylinder with 98k and have some electrical/wiring problems...i already checked all the grounds and all are intact...heres the problem=my wipers will come on automatically when they are off, my back left window will roll itself down, my doors will lock and unlock by themselves, when remote locking and unlocking my doors the front park lights and rear lights will flicker, not blink solid. also my interior dash will flicker as well...also when all this is happening there is a clicking noise coming from the right passenger side area...all of this will happen randomly especially when the engine is cold...after the engine warms up problems will diminish....anyone have any input?!?!? its VERY annoying! THANK YOU!

 

Whenever random stuff that's not SUPPOSED to be related to each other, all screws up at the same time, I always suspect bad grounds.

Can't be much help except for that vague statement 'cause I no longer own the 6th-gen car or the Helm book that goes with it.

 

I got the car used and it didnt come with a manual but would you happen to know where the grounds are? all the grounds i found were good...would you think it could be loose wiring i know the car was in an accident at some point from the previous owner....all i can think of is taking it to a electrical repair shop and maybe having them rewire it...but thats probably gonna be expensive

 

The spooner link I posted in the online manuals thread in the main DIY section has a 98-02 shop manual that you can download as an iso file. Burn it to a cd, and it will have the ground locations.

 

That is a lot of stuff to be all one problem but it must be. I tried to think of anyplace all of the items relate and I can’t think of any. The Door looks I would think security system, the wipers lights, dash lights maybe related to the combination switch wiring and the odd ball seems to be that just one window rolls down. I wonder if the clinking noise is the receiver for the security system.

Do you know where it was hit?

 

it was hit in the front i believe, ya the clicking noise is the security alarm but sometimes it will click nonstop for about 30 sec. i'm lost here i checked all the grounds that i could find all i can think of is wiring. it also stumps me that it only happens while the engine is warming up once its nice and warm the problems dont happen

 

Another way it MIGHT(?) be related...
I think many of those things are controlled through multiplexers rather than discrete circuits. Check that out, but you probably need the shop manual (like PA said) for more info.

 

Yes, I would check all the connections to the fuse boxes, especially the under dash fuse box, which may also be the MICU (Multiplex integrated control unit) which controls most of the electrical stuff in the car.
