Need HELP for Flickering headlight---2003 Accord V6
Hi, I'm new in this forum and hopefully everyone can help me out with this problem. I have 03 Accord 4 drs V6. My Accord headlight started the flickeringabout 2 weeks ago. It happened every time after I accelerated during the low speed(20mph-45mph). The headlights are totally off and then go back on again. Besidesthe headlight flickering, there is nothing wrong on the dash board or carperformance. I changed the alternator a month ago. I just got a new battery andchecked all the wire that hood up the car, everything is good. I did the electricaltest from o’really and they told me my alternator is good. I’m so frustrated withthis and wonder if anyone has any experience of this can help me out?
Any suggestion or opinion would be appreciated.Thanks for reading

Can still be a wire problem associated with the alternator or that the Electronic Load Detector (ELD) has faulty solder joints. On Accords, if the ELD has faulty solder joints, the under-hood fuse relay box is replaced.
There was a Honda service bulletin, TSB # 05-034 regarding the ELD may have faulty solder joints.
Technical service bulletins (TSBs) are not recalls, unless specifically noted as related to a recall; generally, they are to help Honda technicians with known issues. Issues noted in TSBs do not necessary apply to all vehicles. Normal warranty applies.

Thanks for the replying. I went to the o’reallyto borrow the OBDII to check the code in my car. Here are the codes that Ifound:
ABS 61-01: 1.Battery voltage failure 2.Battery voltage low 3. Modulator-control unit initial IG low voltage
ABS 83-01: 1. ECM relation failure 2.ECM/PCM relation failure
ABS 86-01: 1. Can node error 2. Canrelation failure 3. F-CAN BUS-OFF malfunction
SRS 61-10: Open in the left front seat beltbuckle switch
For my understanding, the ABS 61-01 codeappears because I just replace with a new battery with my car. The SRS 61-10code is because of the seat belt buckle switch has problem. What are the ABS83-01 and ABS 86-01 try to tell me?
By the way, I tried the high beam and I found that the high beam is all good. The problem only happens on the low beam
Thanks again for the help~~

Do both headlights have a problem?
Is this problem happening all of the time? How good are you at doing some electrical testing, namely back-probing a connector and taking some voltage or continuity readings?
