window dimming.

i searched...

when i go to roll down 2 or more windows at a time , the lights dim. with or without the amp hooked up. im sure its a bad ground but i checked everything and it looked fine. could the battery be taking a shit? those honda batts are so tiny, so i was thinking this could also be the cause.

it's drawing power. its not some kind of magical thing.

it's providing more of a draw on your electircal system. turn on your a/c or rear defroster. betcha does same thing.

ac doesnt do it like that. i hit the switch for one window and its fine , its just when two going down at a time. the lights pulling less than 10amps (id assume) but the amps pulling ~60a. hmf.

mine does the same thing in a 2005 subaru impreza with a 300w amp. I put the windows down and the lights dim like bass is hitting. Its funny, I can't see what i break when i put a 1600 watt amp in //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

The servo motors inside the doors take a lot of current. It's normal.

Mine did that, you might have a bad factory ground

i dont think so...when i was doing the big 3 i sanded down the factory ground point and placed it back in the origonal spot. i guess its common, hm.
