Car Forum / Honda Cars / August 20052001 clock backlight
I have a 2001 Honda Accord. The clock backlight no longer works. Does anyone know if there is a bulb that can be replaced or do I have to buy a new clock? If a new clock is the only solution, does anyone know where I can get one at a reasonable price? Thanks for your help. Bob it is a tiny bulb from Honda that costs about $3. Just go to the dealership. They'll know what you mea, it happens a lot. > I have a 2001 Honda Accord.

As I understand it, the whole top of the dash has to be removed to get at the back of the clock. Or so says the Honda Service Advisor here in Albuquerque. Our bulb stopped working years ago and it's just too much trouble to replace it. SignatureBearman If it's got tits, tires, tubes, or transistors, it's trouble. I just removed the clock lamp from my 2001 Honda Accord. The clock assembly is removed from the dash by simply sliding a thin flat screwdriver (or similar device) at the bottom of the assembly and gently pry it up and out. Two cables are attached which don't need to be removed but the job is easier if you do. Both cable connectors are easy to remove without tool. Depress the release latch and separate the connectors. The lamp resides very visibly on the circuit board (do not remove circuit board. Using a small (approx. 3/16 in) turn the lamp 1/4 turn CCW and lift out. FYI, while the cables are detached from the assembly the turn signals and emergency flashers are disabled. > I just removed the clock lamp from my 2001 Honda Accord. Too bad the Odyssey engineers didn't look to their Accord counterparts for how to do this. On the Odyssey, you have to remove the dash surround. |
