my 97 honda civics engine light recently has been going on and off, and yesterday it stayed on. The headlights began strobing with the engine cycle, and my speedo jumped around and zeroed out. I can feel restraint in driving, and can hear a high pitched noise under the hood. It starts and drives and Im guessing this is an electrical or relay problem. can you help?

Have the computer scanned for code/s-you have a problem within the engine management system that caused the CEL to turn on-This is your starting point of diagnosis,finding out what's going on.
