Could also be bad grounding leads at the block.
When I do a battery retrofit like I just did... or rewire a trailer... I ground the crap out of everything at least twice. Never ever hurts to have lots and lots of cross grounding.
Honda ground wires are lighter than I like, but I am an overkill kinda guy.
Good luck... these are great little beaters. Paid $2700 for mine and treat her like a redheaded stepchild. Cheaper than an ATV.
Yep, lots of stuff to check and this thread is giving me a good list of things to look at.
On the CR-V, yeah, I love this little thing. Handles great, easy to get in and out of tight parking lots, decent mileage and it carries 95% of what I need carried. Been thinking about a new mid-size pickup but not a lot of inventory out there so like
everything these days it's a seller's market. The car only has a bit over 123,000 miles on it and has been maintained regularly so I figure it's only about halfway through its expected life span. Lots cheaper to give it some TLC when needed and keep it going than buy even a lower mileage used pick up.
