In this video, I demonstrate the steps required to repair a common problem with the factory radio in a 2003 Honda Accord. The symptoms of this problem include a loss of the radio backlight, as well as the backlights for the HVAC controls, such that neither are visible at night.
I have to credit YouTube users “mitch cox” and “HiTechElectronic” for providing the information I used to make this repair. Please also check out their videos, as I found them extremely helpful. My motivation for creating my own how-to video for this repair is to simply provide all of the information in one tutorial, including the removal, repair, and re-installation of the factory radio. In my initial searches for a solution to this problem, I did not find any videos that contained all of the information in one clip. I hope that this video will be helpful to some of you who have experienced this issue with the 2003 Accord.
I am not a professional mechanic, so please use this information at your own risk. I take no responsibility for the success you may have at attempting this repair on your own, and I urge you to be smart and do things safely if you do take on this repair.
Thank you for watching!
