Default Clock Light not working!

My clock light stopped working I think the day I took apart my dashboard. I'm not sure if I broke the something but I purchased new t3 led bulbs. I put them in and it did not work. I'm not sure what else to do. Do I have the bulb in the wrong way?

May sound way too simple, did you plug it in? Check the fuse for it too. I think it's wired with the radio(?). Might be wrong.

How would I check the fuse? I plugged everything back in. The hazard light doesn't light up anymore either.

To be sure, what model do you have? Year whatever... Umm, do the hazards work? The actual function I mean. You would check the fuse by pulling it out to see if it is corroded or broken. Look up a fuse diagram on here..

My clock light also does not work. I replaced the bulb and that did not fix the problem. I would not think it is a fuse since the clock still works.

There's a small chance that the clock actually broke or the connections need to be cleaned. try that.?

Yes the hazard lights perform perfectly and the clock shows the time fine. But neither light up. I have 2002 SE accord 4dr

Retry the connections for the light. I'm not familiar with the clocks on the 02 Accords since I have been in one for 10 years. But if it worked before then something got knocked loose inside it. the alternative way is to just replace it with one on ebay since they generally aren't pricey. At least for my 97.

Okay, thanks for the reply. Could you help me find the clock part on eBay or other websites because I can only find previous generation clocks. I can't find the 02 accord clocks

Led bulbs can only go in 1 way. They are a diode which means if they are hooked up backwards they will not work.

Try what Speedfreek09 said first. But here is a clock for a 1999-'02 Accord. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1999-2002-Honda-Accord-Digital-Clock-Switch-Dash-Hazard-Switch-OEM-/261619256829?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3ce9b90dfd&vxp=mtr
