Default 2002 Honda Accord Interior Lights Question

Hi, everyone. I have two dashboard light questions I hope someone can answer for a 2002 Honda Accord.

1) Should the hazard lights button be backlit? I've recently noticed it is not when the headlights are on, and I never noticed if it was supposed to be so.

2) Does anyone know if there is a map of where all the lights are behind the dashboard? I replaced a bulb behind there over a year ago, but now I'm thinking I may have missed one or two.

Any help would be great! Thanks!

Yes, the hazard light should be lit up when the headlights are on. In fact, I can't think of anything on the dash that doesn't have a backlight.

You're right. I was able to find and pull out the hazard light, so I'll get a new one this afternoon.

As for the bulbs in the cluster, does anyone have a listing of the bulb sizes used? Is there a good place for me to look?

I think I may have found a source for the info:

I'm reviewing it now for the details.

With those kind of bulbs, the dealership is probably the easiest place to buy them. Just bring them the bulb and match them up. Should be $1 or $2 per bulb.

Thanks for the suggestions. As for the part numbers and details, I found that the www.hondaautomotiveparts.com site was an excellent resource.

As for the bulbs, I ordered the hazard bulb from Honda. It's such a tiny bulb that not even dealers carry it that often! And for the gauges, I am upgrading the lights to a brighter LED treatment, as I like how that looks in the newer hondas. Not trying to trick it out, so I stayed with white.

Hi,

I have a 2002 accord EX V6 sedan and my interior ceiling light as well as my clock light are out.

This happened within a couple of days of the battery dying and having to be boosted.

I checked what I thought were the correct fuses and the ceiling light bulb and none appear to be blown.

But does anyone know which fuse controls the interior lights and/or clock light?

There are no other lights out in the vehicle.

Thanks
