Default My 2002 Honda Accord Dash lights and tail lights!?
The headlights turn on when I turn the switch, but the dash lights and tail lights won't come on. What's more, the green transmission position indicator and green a/c light don't dim like normal when I turn on the headlights. I checked the fuse, it looks fine. Suggestions??

It is most likely the fuse. Hondas have several different fuse panels, make sure that you are checking the correct fuse. Even if the fuse looks good, try replacing it.

I think your tail lights and dash lights are on the same ciurit. They did this so when a tail light gos out the driver will know. Check the tail light bulbs first.

check all your fuses with a circuit tester under the dash, passenger kick panel, and engine compartment and if all the fuses are good , check to see if the dimmer got unplug, if fuse is good and nothing is unplug possible short or open wire in system
