reedal Posted July 10, 2015 Report Posted July 10, 2015 Sorry. Couldn't detect your sarcasm. But agreed, you should replace the stock grounds, even if they were corroded they should have only been cleaned and reinstalled, not removed. Don't know why, but removing stock grounds has a habit of causing issues even if it was replaced with a better one.

illestVillian Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Posted July 10, 2015 The other day i put the stock grounds back to 4 gauge and rerouted the 1/0. As for the original, they gone. The 1 was too fuct up and the other I cut and used as a jumper after i blew the main battery fuse to get my windows back up cause it was after hours to run to pepboys and it was calling for rain. But now when the voltage drops as I'm driving, say down to 12.3, I can hit the power windows and it will shoot the voltage back up to 14.1. Same thing if I'm cruising along at 35 mph, voltage drops into the twelves , I can slide the car into neutral and it climbs right back up to 14. Crazy symptoms
reedal Posted July 10, 2015 Report Posted July 10, 2015 try the ELD bypass that has been suggested. I got nothin. How did you blow the main fuse...?

illestVillian Posted July 10, 2015 Author Report Posted July 10, 2015 Lol, I stuck the ratchet down in the engine the double check the positive on the alternator and accidentally hit the exhaust manifold. This is after hours of taking a negative on and off the battery, jumping in and out of the car, sweating my ass off. Just wasn't focused at the time,it was getting dark and I made a rookie mistake. Now I'm thinking I need a new eld not a bypass. Cuz it was never like this before and it started with the Stock alternator and then followed in to see mechman alternator. That bypass is out of my league like I said bebefore. I've never prayed for a check engine light before in my life untill now. A new eld with the fuse box is $200. 300 to 400 installed I'm sure. Thats the Avenue I'm leaning towards at this point. But the thing that gets me second guessing, is on a Acura forum I've read so many threads where people had the same symptoms but had bad relays or air buildup in the radiator, it could be so many different types of things. Just need to save up more money. Missed a week of work over this car. The new alternator seems to keep it from stalling like it was. Thanks again for your help, time, and thoughts. I do appreciate it!

Crazy symptoms That is all due to the eld. eld stands for electrical load detector, basically it senses that the alt isn't in high demand and turns down the charge voltage to increase gas mileage. 2002 Honda CR-VAlpine 9887My BuildRebuilding...

cocoleveo7686 Posted July 11, 2015 Report Posted July 11, 2015 is eld bypass the same as a pcm bypass? My singer alt charges at 14.8 then sits around 14.0 warm with only a 200 amp 4 channel amp and a 55ah battery
