1997 Honda Accord 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 120k miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
My 1997 Honda Accord EX 4cyl. is acting strange. When I roll the windows up, if I keep pressing on the button to roll them up with some of the dashboard lights dim, and at times the radio goes out...also sometimes after this happens, when I turn the car off it resets the cd player and erases the preset stations in it s memory ( as If the battery was disconnected) I replaced the battery about 8 months ago so i am not too sure why it would be doing this. I had Advance Auto run a diagnostic test on the battery and alternator and everything came out good... any ideas?

Thanks so much

Could be that the window motor is drawing too much amperage and the system that powers it is being overloaded, causing the stereo reset
