Accord 1.8 vtec flashes all lights, stalls and doesn't start

[CFBR91]

Hi.

I am a new member from Norway who wants to say hello

I am having an issue with my 1999 accord 1.8 vtec.
Most of the time it runs great, with no problems at all and no warning lights in the dash.

The problem happens around every 300-500km. The car is fine when suddenly all lights in the dashboard flashes, still no stalling or missfire but every time about 30sec-1min later it stalls suddenly, sometimes with a slight buzzing-sound behind the dash-area. Then it will start and immediately stall. If i wait for a couple of minutes it will start back up like nothing ever happened.
It seems to be a returning event that has happened several times since this autumn.

I hope someone can tell me what might be wrong, as the car over all is in good shape despite its 320000km.


Thank you in advance,
Carl Fredrik

I probably sound like a broken record, but I would start with the ignition switch. Swap it for a good one or buy a new one, they're not that expensive. It sounds like there's a connection being lost somewhere, and the obvious place to look is in the ignition.

IT was the ignition switch, the car runs like a dream now
thank you for responding!
