I felt dizzy and difficulty concentrating after driving my new car for two hours. Could excessive electrical wires be causing this?
I felt these symptoms about three times directly after driving my 2000 Honda Civic.
The car has about 10 or so electrical wires running above the driver's window and along the headliner for the two dome lights, sun roof, and rear speakers. These wires are very close to my head.
I never felt this in my old car which only had one wire running above the driver's window.
Does this sound unusual? Thank you very much!
LMAO wtf? No it's not the Fing electrical wires! Fing get out of your car eat and drink something. I drive long trips all the time and this is normal in any vehicle. Sometimes it's worse then other times. Same cure Everytime. Walk around and ground yourself. Take a quick nap if need be.
Fumes, probably. If it smells of cleaning fluids or air freshener, give it as many chances to air out as you can. Also, make sure the exhaust isn't leaking into the cabin.
Make yourself a tinfoil hat. That should protect you from those nasty old wires.
No. But I second the tinfoil hat idea, you can never be too safe.
You're a nut case thinking stupid things like that.
The most likely cause of being dizzy is an exhaust leak or oil from a valve cover leak burning on the exhaust manifold. Burning
Cars typically make people sick. They are inherently poisonous.
You were probably just used to the sick feeling from the other car but when you shifted to a new car it gave you a new sick feeling.
You really just have to get used to it.
Don't worry about dying from being sick immediately.
Studies show it takes quite a few years before the poisons work through the human body enough to kill you.
No. After extensive research from about 1984-2005 we have determined the concerns about EMFs were unfounded. The EU's regulations are still in force but there was never any valid reason for them.
There are reasons you may feel like that. Though. The top concern is carbon monoxide from an exhaust problem. Other concerns with less serious consequences can include background noises you don't pay attention to but still affect you, and the seat position. If it gets better or worse when you adjust the seat back a bit more forward or back, that is where the problem is.
I agree with those who advise having your exhaust system checked out. Especially if you live in a cold winter area where your windows are always up.
Happened to me once. Turned out it was a tail light bulb, the socket had come loose allowing the bulb to rest against plastic. The noxious smell and fumes was plastic burning on the bulb. The feeling I got from this was more sick/nauseated. If it's a sickening plastic type odor check bulbs and for something stuck on the exhaust. A wiring harness should not be doing this to you unless it's shorting out. That would be evident by burned spots on it.
Oil leak can cause that, exhaust leak can cause that. And if those wires, are were you can see them they most likely are add on's some one did: check to see if the wires are hot or not after driving some distance. Until you fine out what is causing this problem drive with the window open.
- If one or two ISP's ban a site and raise prices, can a new one rise up and compete? Why? Why not? What about Honda/Toyota? Or ' MCI & Sprint muscling AT&T aside? Anyone remember Nucor Steel? Each of those took advantage of very different situations, each with seemingly impossible odds. Thing is, they were all LEGALLY allowed to compete. How about here?
- I rebuilt my honda eu3000is carb, and now it smoke a few minutes after starting. It has only 50 hours or so? I cleaned out some green slime from the carb bowl, and cleaned out the main jet. Then, put it all back together. Did I miss something in the re-assembly? It runs good, just smokes.
- Why could my 2000 Honda Civic show it's going to overheat I have coolant a new radiator a new radiator cap a new temp gauge switch and? A new thermostat head gasket is fine could it just need to flushed and a new water pump and timing belt
- Is it worth it driving 2 hours to work? My uncle offered me a job that pays 18 bucks an hour. It's 2 hour away and I have to go threw tolls. I have a 95 honda civic and a motorcycle which I spend 40 bucks on gas to full the tank on the Car. I'm going to finish high school in a week in a half. If I get the job I have to work Tue-Saturday and 10 hours. Is it worth it or not.
