Icon2 possible elecrtical or fuse issue?

Hey guys, I have a 99 crv and awhile back I noticed the clock only comes on sometimes when I turn the car on (always comes on after a few minutes) and the noise that it makes when the headlights are left on and door open only sounds sometimes. Also the low gas light only comes on occasionally when my tank is low. I recently replaced the battery thinking that would help but it didn't. If anybody knows what is causing this I would appreciate it, If it is a fuse, which one? Thanks!

there's more than one issue going on.
Here's a DIY on fixing your clock if you know how to solder http://blog.scurker.com/2010/09/hond...2001-clock-fix

I never let my tank get low enough for the gas light to even come on, so i dont even know if mine works

I'd be interested in hearing about the lights sounder not working. Does your dome light not come on as well? then I would imagine the door switch is getting worn out.

thanks for your response. Well I dont know about that clock fix because that seems to be if the clock does not work at all and mine does work, it just doesn't come on right away SOME of the time. I usually have my dome light set to off, but I tried switching it to the middle position and it did come on when the door opened along with the light sounder which only works SOME of the time as well.

Now just yesterday while driving I noticed my left headlight went out, However when I turn the brights on it does work. They do not appear do be separate bulbs,so what the heck is going on? This is the most important issue now, the other stuff I can live with.

brights and low beams are inside the same bulb. your regular bulb filament burned out. buy a whole new bulb.

I can almost assure you the clock fix is your issue with your clock, I have fixed mine once but it seems to be going again probably on a different transistor and it will come on and off periodically during my drives.
