2000 Honda Accord dash lights

The dash lights went out on my 2000 accord LX 6 cyl coupe. I have no dashlights or radio lights. I checked all the fuses and this did not help. It is not the bulbs as the lights come on on the clock and radio when the headlights are off. Please help.

Check the dimmer switch that controls the birghtness of the dash lights.

Im having the same problem with my 96' civic coupe. When the headlights are off, radio lights come on, and when the headlights are on, dash and panel lights dont turn on. Weird that sometimes they work and sometimes they dont when you turn on the headlights. Took it to a mechanic who changed the wires and fuse, but still went off after a couple of days, so I will have to take a look at it. Did you change the fuse? Also check the wires if there is a short, that's what Im gonna do.

Do you both have stock honda radios?

There is another thread on this about Accord radios causing all kinds of trouble. Search for it.

Yes, we do. I dont know if it's the exact same problem with the civic as with the accord. Will it be "fixed" if I buy an aftermarket radio?

Most likely. Can you try to just unhook the radio and see if that helps?

i have the same problem with my 2000 accord lx 4door...the dash lights won't come on and the radio light goes out...i checked all my fuses and i am sure that my radio connections have nothing to do with the problem. could it be a problem where a bulb is blown or something of that sort?

the center consol has two screws on the bottom and one behind the clock. you can use a flat head screwdriver to pluck the clock out.
