Detailed Description

For Honda Accord applications, it is for vehicles without fog lights and with auto headlights. For Honda Insight and Honda CR-V applications, it is for vehicles equipped with automatic headlights.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Inoperative or intermittent headlight dimmer control
• High beams that do not latch or flash correctly
• Turn signal control that no longer responds properly

• Worn steering-column switch contacts on automatic-headlight vehicles

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the vehicle has the listed automatic-headlight configuration before ordering. Match the connector shape, terminal count, and switch layout to the original unit before installation. Because this is a bolt-on switch assembly, careful alignment with the steering-column mounting points is important for proper operation.

Quality Assurance
