If the alternator was not actually replaced, then I strongly believe that it
is the cause of these problems. I had similar issues last year with my 2004
Civic, and only the alternator needed to be replaced. It seems to be a
somewhat common problem on this version of Civic.

the alternator was replaced but the situation continues. the blinking
of the drls and the parking lights continues until either you turn on
the lights at the switch or you pull the relay. As i said before, the
relay replacement doesn't make a difference.
