Honda Civic 2001 light issue. Part of recall?
Honda Civic 2001 light issue. Part of recall?
I was going out to get dinner and all of a sudden the lights on my Honda Civic don't work anymore. Just the headlights. The turning signal, brake and parking lights all work fine. The outside headlights have sort of a faded out yellow color. I haven't tested the brights yet since I live in an apartment complex. Thank God I was able to quickly turn around and pull back into the apartments. Could have been an accident. Just glad I'm safe and realized the problem. I turned onto a side street and checked the hazards, brake lights and so on, and they all worked fine. Even my lights inside the car that told me the headlights were working were on!!! I'm taking it to the dealer tomorrow. If this is part of the recall issue that happened several years ago, the dealers fix it for free right?

There's a recall for low beam headlights inop on some of the cars. Enter your VIN to see if yours needs done:

I am having a similar issue, however my prob is with my high beams. The low beams work fine but for some unknown reason my hi-beams are inoperable. The high beam indicator does not even come on when I turn them on. I have checked all fuses, relays and bulbs that I could find without success. HELP!!!

However, if the recall does in fact apply to your car (dealer must check the VIN), you still should have it performed.
