Alternator/Generator/Regulator
Driving home at night in heavy rain with family when the srs light came on followed less than a minute later by the abs light. Less than 1 minute later car died on the road.

I purchased a new 2000 honda accord v6 in june of 2000. It is now 4 1/2 years old and has fewer than 18,000 miles. About 1 week ago i started hearing a whine or whirr and took it to the dealer today (12/15/04). It checked out to be a bad alternator, and they said it would be over $500 to fix!! I found seven complaints on this site and all of them (including mine) share a defective air bag light which comes on…

Purchased new 2000 accord ex v-6, 4 dr-replaced transmission at 10,000 miles, then again around 55,000 miles. Now on third transmission and wondering how long this one will last. Also, now the srs light is on and they say the seat belt has to replaced, as well as now the alternator and tensioner are being repalced ($600 job!). Based on some other complaints, it seems the two are related, as well as the alternator…

The srs airbag light came on at approximately 69,000 mi.the car was taken to dealer and no fault codes were found on the computer. I had the delphi alternator load tested and determined that could be the culprit. During this time, i also had both of my headlamps burned out within weeks of each other. I replaced the alternator with an aftermarket one and have not had any problems since. *ak

It has been checked for an electrical short and nothing could be found. The factory-installed cd player failed at approximately 37,000…
