and when it turns on

Probably your sensor.

How old is your battery? When mine was just about dead, my warning lights would come on. Mech told me that the warning indicators may come on if the system isn't getting enough juice from the battery.

how many volts does it have to be???

cuz on my Avic-D3 voltage indicator
it says 13.5Volts..
but i heard I need about 14.1+ or something

is that why??? need more battery power??

is it cuz I still have to stock battery and im running my HID+SUB+AMP???

You should be maintaining around 14V when your car is on, around 12.5 with your car off. Low voltage can certainly cause warning lights to come on, and if you're not careful it can cause malfunction of certain systems...

check your brake fluid filter (under the cap). I know on my old prelude, the ECU would decide to tell me odd info about my brake's whenever the hell it felt like it, lol.

If thats not it, PM me, and I'll check the Service manual when I get home and see what the EWD says.

I had this happen to me MANY times... even had a thread about it... I remounted my HID's (made sure it wasn't touching any metal) and the problem went away (haven't seen this problem for almost a year).

PS Pay attention to the speedometer... when I had my problem, the speedometer would go down and back up again (no change in actual speed)... if you're seeing the same thing, it's probably the same problem...

PPS I also changed my battery about six months ago, so that may have partially solved the problem, but I'm fairly certain that during the time between remounting HID's and changing the battery, I hadn't seen this problem pop up.

hey what kind of prelude did you own? I used to own a 99 milano red prelude, 5-speed!
