Asked by Dan Jan 18, 2018 at 07:01 PM about the 2002 Honda Accord EX V6

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I've just started to get a ruff idle on my 02 v6
accord. It has 218k on it and also i had problems
with the lights getting bright then dimming.. Also
there's all kinds of different dash light's coming on
when it does it like the battery,seatbelt light and a
couple others.. I replaced the alternator thinking
that would help and it did for a couple days then
the dash lights still flash on and off.. Seems like
only when i hit the brakes, and it has a new
battery.. Headlights aren't getting bright then
dimming so idk what's up with this thing

sounds like low battery voltage,thinking the bad alternator took out the battery.
