[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 6966512, member: 576029"] the ELD is causing you an issue right now, and will be an issue until you bypass or work around it. it shuts off your alt to save fuel mileage when the ignition load is low. so you drop to 12V or lower while driving. that means it won't charge your main battery or your second battery. upgrading the alt won't change that either, it's part of the powertrain control module. this is assuming your Civic has one. Only US domestic Honda's have them. [/QUOTE]
