Hi all, I'm trying to get some help with my factory radio and AC unit. I have a 2003 4 cyl. 2 door accord, and the backlighting on the unit went out. All the functions work fine and the LCD display is working as well, it is just not backlit.

Is this a common problem? I have an aftermarket HU but I checked and rechecked all wires and they are fine( the problem happened many months after the HU install). I also checked all fuses. I just know there is a hidden fuse or wire somewhere I am overlooking. I even took the unit apart down to the PCBs but couldn't find a fuse.

Help!

Thanks

 

check with your honda dealer,we have a service bulletin pertaining to that problem,if you are under warranty,if not, they can replace under the goodwill policy.

 

Thank you so much, I never would have known there was a recall. Unfortunately, my car is rebuilt so not under warranty.

Is there any way to get some details about this bulletin?

Thanks!

 

The TSB applies to the stock head unit, which will be replaced at no charge. Since you have an aftermarket head unit, the TSB does not apply to you.
