Default headlight/AC hell

I just replaced my right light with a new projector light (which looks nice) but im still running into the smae problem i had before. My lights would be on and my right light would go out as soon as i turn on my AC, i checked my fuses, and bulbs all is fine. When i turn on the AC my engine makes a whisper sound and then my light will not return on unless im driving then it blinks while im driving (a good way to get shot) also when i turn on my AC the BRAKE light (inside only) and right turn signal light stays on inside and out. I now thinking i have a bad ground but i dont know.....Does anyone else have any ideas. I also replaced my alternator because the of same thing and my alternator is fine. I rather do it myself, b/c i have no honda dealership here.

what year, make and model? and you said that you got projector lights. i just installed a pair and i noticed that there are ac wires near the light wiring. is there a chance that you wired the lights wrong? get back to me and maybe i can help.
