Rep Power: 0 if its under warrenty bring it to honda, or pull the headlights and see if the filiment in them are blown...if they are run somewhere that sells headlight bulbs and ask them for some H4's

Rep Power: 0 Yeah man, if your high-beam light doesn't come on, it's not the bulbs, and I'd take it to the dealer. They'd be able to fix it really easy. What were you using a clothes hanger for???

Rep Power: 0 I just got back from the dealer and I have to go back again. My low beams just stopped working the other night. High beams worked fine. Bulbs were good, fuses good...dealer traced it back to a burnt switch and wiring cause by a faulty alarm installation. Anyone want to buy a Viper alarm, this things coming out soon. (Please note: I did not install the alarm myself, a 'professional' did!)

Rep Power: 0 sounds like a burnt switch....if the bright light doesn't even come on then the car doesn't know you are putting the light on...good luck at the factory dude

Rep Power: 277 Do you have aftermarket headlight bulbs? My headlights went out all at once too, and I was like WTF? I checked all the fuses and they were OK. Then I checked the bulbs, they were both blown at the same time! Check your bulbs!! I doubt you did anyhting with the clothes hanger. It would blow a fuse before doing any other damage and you would have had to have the headlights on. Besides, we all know how tough the covering is on wiring. You can barely cut it with a knife.
