i have a 2001 honda accord and the backlight of my clock isnt working! does anybody know how to fix it?

Question

2001 honda accord 4dr exl. the backlight doesnt come on when i turn on my lights (when it is supposed to come on)

Answer 1

there is a small bulb in the back of the clock that has burnt out. You can remove the clock by pulling on the rectangle that surrounds the clock with equal pressure on all sides. the clock should just pop out. You'll see the back of the bulb as a round plastic screw about 1/8th inch in diameter and about 1/16" high. It should be in a cavity on the back of the clock on the passenger side of the clock when looking at the clock from the front. You can disconnect the clock connectors if you want but its not necessary to remove the bulb. simply use a small screwdriver to turn the bulb 1/4 turn and it will come out. you will probably have to buy the bulb at a Honda dealer. If you don't want to take the clock out, ask the parts guy for a bulb and I would venture to guess that the dealer will have someone put it in for you at no charge because its that easy to do.

hope that answers your question

it may be having an auto dimming setup i.e if you switch on the clearance or the headlight, the other lights will dim. just check if it is in the proper setting
