    my battery light went on briefly and off while driving.
    a/c was not on, fan was not on, only running light on.
    no other signs of problems.

    this have been happenning a few times over the last year.

    anyone can give me an idea as what to look for ?
    thanks

    The battery icon on this warning light misleads. It's
    actually a warning light for the alternator/charging system.
    Like Bob said, the first suspect is the alternator brushes.
    Has this car ever had the brushes or the whole alternator
    replaced?

    More info appears at
    http://home.earthlink.net/~honda.lioness/id13.html . Skip
    down to the five quick checks (one-third of the way down)
    you can do to help narrow down the problem.
