Re: Intermittent tree lights
I went a whole day without experiencing any problems, but then it happened again today.
I use neutral in a lot of my city driving; coasting to red lights or down hills...I first saw my dash lights flash when I moved the gear selector to neutral. From then on, they would flash intermittently even while driving (gear selector in 3 or D). I was able to remember specifically which lights illuminate. They are: STEERING, battery symbol, STOP(!), BRAKE(!), and ABS. John, svxcess, has put me in contact with Maniac Motors and I will be giving them a call in the near future to further diagnose the problem.

Re: Intermittent tree lights
To sum up this thread, I gave Maniac Motors a call this morning and they are sending me a replacement alternator as mine is still under warranty.

Re: Intermittent tree lights
Speaking from experience i had an intermittent problem, i could drive the car for an hour or 2 so then it wouldn't restart until jumped then it would go for several weeks and do it again, i changed the battery solved it for 1 week then the lights stayed on last thursday, turns out the rectifier was crapped out,i suspect this is why it was only doing it ocasionally i ended up modding the mounts to accept a 2.5 legacy alt i think it was a 23700-AA220 this is more available around here , it has to last till wed when she gets traded on a new impreza so i think maybe it doesnt want to go
regards cam
