clock on 2001 accord

Nov 22, 2007 8 Replies

I just purchased a 2001 Accord EX, and I have a question about the clock on the dash. Is it supposed to light up when the lights are turned on? I can't see it at night.


It's supposed to light up whenever the car is on.

It pries right out of the dash. Just put a small flat blade at the bottom and pry. Disconnect the harness, and look for the very small bulb that's screwed into the back. Replace that. It's a couple bucks at the dealer.

Same procedure as for the Odyssey:

Nope. On the Accord, it pries right out. On the Ody, you're pulling out half the dash. Stupid, but there you have it.

Curly,

on the tsb you just referenced, look up in the upper right corner. See where it says, "Odyssey: Remove the instrument panel"? Not the same as the Accord, I must say.

This is as ugly as the instruction for replacing the headlamp bulb, which starts with, "Remove inner wheel well" or something similar.

Ah, well.

Sorry, I should have said: They're both covered _in_ the same TSB.

OOps.

Just replaced my clock bulb. Very simple. I didn't have to disconnect anything. I was able to pull the whole assembly out far enough to get at the bulb. Just a slight CW rotation and the bulb was out of it's socket.. MLD
