NOt sure if I have blown a fuse or something else has gone wrong, but
the car stereo light has dimmed so that the light looks as if it is
out. So, common sense tells me that it is not a fuse or there would be
no light at all. But, not sure if it is just the light hitting it a
certain way. Does anyone know how fix this problem? Has anyone had this
problem? Think this may be common in those models.

If this is an EX model (or even an LX V6), there is a TSB for this.  Even if
the car is out of warranty, you may still be able to get the unit replaced
for free or for just the cost of labour.  You may have to contact Honda
customer service first, though.

Correct...this is an EX-L model. What is a TSB? Any suggestions as what
to say to customer service? or just tell them it simply went
out...didn't know if you knew of a loop whole?  Thank so much for your
help!!

My lights are fine, but sometimes it seems the radio volume isn't
working right.  I complained to the dealer under warranty, they said
it sounded fine to them.

Would that fall under the same heading???

2004 Accord EX4

Thx.

Mine has done the same thing. I'm going to call Honda customer service
tomorrow nad see if they will cover it, even though my vehicle is out
of warranty. I'll let you know.

My 2003 EX-V6 Accord Manual had it's radio replaced THREE times-all under
warranty. That car was so un-Honda-like that I finally traded it in for a
new Element.

I have a 2005 Accord hybrid and a 2006 Odyssey.  Both radios suck.
