I've noticed my headlights and gauges dim ever so slightly when I hit the breaks, then get bright again after half a second or so. Any idea if this is normal? I hope to god it's not the alternator, because I just replaced the alt in my 5th gen celi and don't want to do it again with a car I jsut bought! Also if my luck is completely ****e, is the alt on a 5th gen interchangeable with a 6th gen?
Thanks! --------------------  |

Thanks! i used to have a similar problem. it also might be a bad connection to your battery. mine i had to put on a new clamp to get it to stop. otherwise it might be your battery or alternator. --------------------  Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |
