1999 Honda Accord clock light - EZ change
Just replaced the clock light on my 1999 Accord. Took all of 2
minutes!
The clock/flasher assembly pops out as one unit. You can use a
screwdriver but be careful not to scratch the dash. I opted for a 1
1/2" wide putty knife. Place tool in bottom middle of the
clock/flasher and apply SLIGHT upward pressure and the assembly pops
out. The light is on the right side when viewed from the front, left
side viewed from the rear. The round 3/16" diameter plastic head is
the bulb. Using a small screwdriver, turn 1/4 turn counter-clockwise
to remove. Install new bulb with 1/4 turn clockwise. Turn on
ignition switch to check for operation. (Light comes on with ignition
switch not headlights.)
Get the replacement bulb at your local dealer, part number
35505-S84-B02.
cost $3.19
I have two local Honda dealers, one quoted me $45 labor and the other
said the whole dash assembly needed to be removed, cost $80 labor!!!
Wonder why dealerships have a lousy reputation?
If you can change a lightbulb in your home, this has about the same
level of difficulty.
