Minor accident
Hi,
I had a very minor accident with my Accord LX-G 2003, left bumper, left front panel and left sealed beam... Had it repaired, and ever since I have no lights on the center control panel, radio and fan, the radio works so does the AC/Fan... The AC green light works and the heater setting lignts work too. But the lights under the buttons don't. I can't see any burned fuses, nor find anything else not working on the car. Any idea would be appriciated. Thanks. |

How about the tail lights? If no, its a fuse, you just haven't found it yet. If yes, then check the wiring, fuses & breakers in and around the underhood fuse box. Since you say this started after the accident repair, it is likely that something is wrong in the vicinity of the repair - wire pinched, pulled loose, reconnected to the wrong place, fuse not fully seated, etc. It can be difficult to see a break in the filament in those tiny fuses. Try substituting with a known to be good fuse. |
