Hey Guys im trying to fix a prob on my moms Honda Civic 2001 4dr Lx.

No Warranty Left :-/... trying to fix it myself if its a fuse / relay / wire. Without having to have her take it out to Honda for a whole day and spend 80 bucks it possible. but as for the switch, im guessing since the Hi Beams work by pushing lever forward don’t they rely on the Low beam switch to be activated?

Humm ill look in to that. BTW i just took a LED to The Relay under the hood (Passenger Fuse Box, the two relays on the Drivers side of box.) to check power and when Lowbeams Activated it has power (will check to see if it has power when Hi beams or activted started raining)

I Found This Recall on the Car :-D.


Dear Honda Owner:

This notice is sent to you in accordance with the requirements of the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act.
What is the reason for this notice?

Honda Motor Co., Ltd. has decided that a defect relating to motor vehicle safety exists in certain 2001-02 Civics and 2000-01 Insights. A terminal in the headlight wire harness can overheat and may cause the low-beams to fail without warning. Although the high-beam position remains operational, an unexpected loss of low beams could result in a crash.

Problem solved (I Hope :-D ) Thanks Guys.
