Maciek Posted January 2, 2007 Share Posted January 2, 2007 HI, just wanted to see if I can get a second opinion. This morning I turned my car on and the centre console radio display was not working (no lights) and the climate control/radio control buttons had no lights as well. The radio and all centre console functions work properly just there is no backlight on them. Took the car to the Honda dealership to determine problem/solution and was told that i need a new radio (cd changer) which is a $300 fix for a refurbished model and I would rather not pay that much if there is an easier fix. It just strikes me as odd that only the lights on the centre console dont work and the dealer wants to replace the whole radio. I would appreciate any advice if anyone finds this problem familiar or has expereinced something similar in their car. BTW this is a CAnadian model accord with ether a panasonic or alpine cd changer. Thanks in advance, Maciek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the air controls in between the cd player and cd player controls in ur accord? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
