Thanks for posting this informative video. One of my bulbs recently went out, and this gave great instructions on how to replace it. I even used a Case knife that I've had for many years that appears similar to yours to pry off the cover. The whole process was really easy thanks to this video.

@DavidCarrJaxFL 8 жыл бұрын

Removing the light cover, which I thought would be trickier, was easier for me than ordering the right light bulb. Thanks for putting the link to the right bulb in the comments. Guess I'll try again on Monday when the right bulb arrives.

@1kingfather 8 жыл бұрын

Thank you. The right bulb burned out a month ago on my 2009 Odyssey, & following your video I replaced it successfully. Last night the left bulb burned out, so I did a refresher this AM to get ready to replace it too, Thanks so very much for making it a relatively simple task to perform!

2012 Crosstour, this worked, thank you Also the direction of the bulb seems to matter but it's not clear which side is positive or negative so just try and flip it around if it doesn't work the first time The right side light is extremely dim after replacement so I'm thinking either the connector/wire to that light is faulty or it needs a new fuse

Thank you for posting this. The solution is to remove the two lenses carefully with a screwdriver,then remove the 2 Phillips screws inside each lighting bay. then, with a flat screwdriver,push out to each side the white switches, revealing the connections.Them, with rubbing alcohol clean the connections. Reinstall as above,they should work OK.If not the switches are bad just replace those.

Just wanted to add that if you find that your map light bulb(s) are still good, it may be the switches that turn the map lights on and off. Apparently this is a common problem on Honda's and Acura's. So if you put the bulb into the other side and it lights up, you know the bulb is still good. I wrote a post on how to fix the switch by cleaning it on OdyClub.com, you can see it here: www.odyclub.com/forums/52-2005-2010-odyssey/200201-map-light-interior-light-switch-not-working-right.html. Mine is post #12 by BeachbumNJ. Hope this helps someone.

If you depress and hold the light cover and take a thin screwdriver to the long side opposite the depressed side, it is easier to remove the cover than attempting to pop the short sides off as in the video. ( I actually used a paper clip that I found in the cup holder.)
