1996 honda civic ex 2dr dashboard and overheating problems
i have a 1996 Honda civic ex 2dr i was driving home one day from work and my dashboard lights suddenly went off i checked all my fuses they are all good none of them are burned out i checked the light bulbs from the dashboard and they are not burned out when i turn my alarm my dashboard lights start flashing like if they work im thinkin it might be a power shortage in the cars wiring or a cable might of been disconnected what can i do or what might be the problem.
I also have another problem with it i was driving my car to my friends house and my car suddenly started overheating. i drove it back home i was only a block away from my house and i left the car at home next day i bought a water pump because i thought it was my water pump i replaced my water pump which i thought my car was going to be better but it was still the same i checked my hoses on my car and none of them are damaged i checked my thermastat and its good but just i case it was damaged or ruined i bought a new one for it and it still does the same thing i took of the cap from the radiator and the water just goes back out i dont know what might be the problem i need help or some information on what might be the problem.
