Default Headlight issues 2004 Honda Accord LX

So I posted about my dome light, now moving on to the headlights, tail lights. I replaced my front passenger turn signal today, the turn signal now works, but the light does not (is it a day light, or a low beam, is it a seperate light bulb?)

Also, people have told me my back up lights are out, but I know all of those are good, the blinkers work, and the reverse lights blink when I lock the car.


Any ideas? I'm sorry I'm not explaining this better.


Thanks,
Joe

Remove connector of RF bulb and check for voltage to connector.

If no voltage check relay control module and fuses 5, 6 in underhood fuse box. Fuse 5 controls hi beam and 6 lo-beam for passenger (Right) side.

If you have voltage to connector, bulb or connector is faulty.

good luck

Thanks, I will check that tomorrow! It seems that my back up lights do work, but the only brake light that works, is the one behind the back wind sheild, though all of the lights in the back do work... I think I need a users manual, ha.


Thanks,
Joe

Sounds like the bulbs are bad to me...? If none of the brake lights worked I'd look at fuses and that but since at least one is working.

Okay, can someone give me the specific numbers of the sylvania bulbs for the brake lights and for the turn signal / day light? I could have possibly picked up the wrong bulbs I'm sure.

You can go to autozone web site and look them up.

Wait, I was talking about the brake lights in the rear where only the center lights up.


For the front, there are three bulbs. One for the turn signal. Two for the headlights.
