2003 Honda CR-V EX headlight problem...help!
Headlight problem started about month ago with passenger side
out...closing hood would cause it to come on at first.
Replaced both headlight bulbs and passenger bulb filament was
bad...both headlights now worked.
About a week ago the drivers side went out...ck'd filament good
and swapped out bulb......no go..worked on this for hours
cleaning connectors wiring prongs in plug....no go.....
Plugged bulb in while out of socket touched ground no go....but,
after pulling on wires and plug bulb came on.
Replaced bulb in assy replaced rubber plugged in and again its
does not work.
My guesses or a broken wire bad connector somewhere...ground
etc..
Does anyone know the schematic on this vehicle where the plugs
and connectors are?
Its hard for me to believe a almost new car has a broken wire
or corrosion like you find on 20-30 year cars.
Any input on T/S or anyone had this problem?
Thanks for any help!

On some Hondas there are little triangles on the plastic connector that
you're supposed to squeeze like hell to get the lamp to release. If you
don't know about that, and just twist and shout until it comes out,
you've loosened the metal part of the connector so it has no 'bite' on
the lamp's prong anymore. I had to pop the plastic connector apart,
clean out all the grease and carefully crush the brass (copper) parts
tighter and reassemble with new silicone grease. I drew a picture first
so I didn't mess up the wiring. It was a '95 Odyssey, but I'm know lots
of Hondas are similar.

Thanks Curly....but this CR-V just has regular 3 prong
connectors on the bulb.

===============================
Quote from '00 CR-V manual: "Remove the electrical connector from the
bulb by squeezing the connector on both sides to unlock the tab. Pull
the connector straight off" The Helms (service) manual doesn't mention
the squeezing part, but Helms assumes you're a Honda tech and should
have known that.
Maybe they changed the design after '01, but I doubt it. What does your
owner's manual say?
Look on the bright side . . You get a VW feature (headlight problems)
without having to buy a VW.

Quote from '00 CR-V manual: "Remove the electrical connector from the
bulb by squeezing the connector on both sides to unlock the tab. Pull
the connector straight off" The Helms (service) manual doesn't mention
the squeezing part, but Helms assumes you're a Honda tech and should
have known that.
Maybe they changed the design after '01, but I doubt it. What does your
owner's manual say?

Thanks Curly, I've had a similar problem with the right high beam
headlamp on my 2002 civic (see my problem posting about four days ago).
I'll try that on mine as well.
