Got no answers in the accord forum...

ive been having a problem with my headlights/gauges/anything that lights up in my car. Basically when I press the gas pedal the light gets brighter on my gauge/headlights. Its kinda annoying. What could this be? I mean my lights are on and working but when I accelerate or tap it a centimeter it does this. Also not sure if its my AC/Heater but my rpm guage goes to 0 back to normal to 0 back to normal but the motor sounds fine. Its not dieing or anything. Could it be the radio? My radio cant turn off cause of the knob.

Just spitting out ideas.

Well seeing as the electricity in your car is created by your Alternator and it spins faster as the engine spins faster that is why your lights are getting brighter. It is not normal and would lead me to believe that your voltage regulator is busted.

 

sweet thanks, gives me somewhere to lead off of. Thanks

 

its a sign of the alternator like 4thgen said.. i have that problem too when i turn my system up.
