How to Replace Honda Gauge Cluster Lights 

Awesome tutorial. Just used it to change my cluster bulbs. Thanks so much for posting.

MUCH easier than I expected! Thanks!

Your video explained everything perfectly! I changed the lights on my 2001 Civic EX. They're sized 74 bulbs but if you're getting LEDs make sure they're correct or you'll just have brights spots on your cluster, I stuck with halogens for this

thank you for this! some of the lights for my prndl just went out 😭😭

Thanks for the info, that looks like it won't be too much problem, fingers crossed.

What are the bulb numbers?....Mario from Nova Scotia , Canada

The back of my cluster panel (2005) doesn’t look like yours…I removed the white backing and it has silver dome shaped “caps” on it….2 with blue dots on the left side, 1 with a red dot in the middle, and 1 with a green dot on the right. Somebody please help!

I followed your steps in hoping to disable the low washer fluid light. But I guess these are all just the red lights. I'd rather just disable the light than go through the hassle of accessing, cleaning, and possibly replacing the washer level sensor. Any tips? (I also seemed to lower the power of one of the top lights...maybe I didn't click the blue/green assembly back in properly?)

The blue one is for the high beam indicator. its a blue light instead of the other white ones.

what is the cruise control lamp and socket

thanks 6speeddakota . very helpful indeed ...

Thank you. This video was very helpful :)

This is SO MUCH EASIER than doing this on my 1991 Accord....!!!!!!!

I replaced the Dash Lights in my 05 Element, the Odometer Lights worked before I did, but afterward stopped working, so I bought new bulbs for the Odometer and everything works, Was kinda weird though..

Sorry, Body is this for what year Honda accord? mine 1994 ex. thanks for your help.

I appreciate the clip dude....thanks.

Hi 6speedakota I have Honda Odyssey 2006 LX. My van check engine light is not turn On at all. Looks like it is burned out. I would like to find out if the check engine light is replaceable in this model or I need to change the whole speedometer assembly.

Hi, I have a 03 Honda Accord ex. I am trying to change mine to led but for some reason when I got to the back of instrument. I didn't notice where to take out the bulbs I just seen wiring wrapped around what seems to be the bulbs. Some help is needed. Thanks

How do you take the front lens off? I'm going to do this but I'm in need of fixing the needles and where they sit?

What size are the lights (larger ones)? How about smaller ones? 2721?

What kind of light bulbs for Honda Civic 2004 ?

What type of lights did you use specifically and do you know where I could buy them from? Also, my dash lights up red (similar to how the car in the video looks) do I need to buy red bulbs, or are they white bulbs and the dash itself tints the white light to red?

Thanks, good stuff.

Just replaced all white light-bulbs and they work great and evenly light up the console. I thought since a lot of people are asking what size and type to get I would link them here: Philips 74 LongerLife Miniature Bulb, 2 Pack. I payed $1.68 per pack (ordered 5) you can just pull out the old bulbs out of the plastic black housing and put in the new ones. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0173MKOKI/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

What bulb is used for the odometer/trip meter LCD? Need one for the LCD clock, too.

So... on my 05 Civic I had few dead backlight... so I started to replace them with some LED lights, I did it one by one to figure out which one was which... anyways... Not sure what happened but I must have shorted something because now non of gauge lights are working. Well not all but speed/tach/fuel/temp lights only are all dead now. Odometer still works + other check lights still work. Oh and my P,R,N,D,D3,D2 lights now have slight flickering too. Can I buy a replacement (used) circuit board where lights all plug in? or is this entire cluster a single part? ?

Do you need to disconnect the battery so you don't blow the airbag....?

I'm trying to buy two bulbs (LP8 and LP10) and I can't find an online store to purchase them. Any advice or a link to share?

Thaaannnnnk Youuuuuuuu!!!!!!

hi 6speedakota. my 2001 Civic has burnt out bulbs as well as temperature gauge not working. Do you know how to fix this? Thanks

what type of bulbs did you use I ma traying to find out for my 2002 honda civic ex

What is the bulb size for the odometer lights? I bought blur led 75s for them and did not work.

Do I have to replace them with an OEM part, or are cheap LED bulbs from Aliexpress ok? 10$ per bulb seems kinda pricy to me

What type of lights would i need for my 2002 honda civic lx coupe ?

How many cluster lights do you need in total? I have to do this to my wife's Civic.

i have a 04 civic odometer lights have been changed still it dont work, fuses seems to be ok,any advice?

I have a 2002 Honda civic lx 4D, but I'm not confident on what bulbs I need and how many for my car. Can you or anybody help with the info?

hi what kind of cluster lights do I need for Honda civic cxi 2000 ?

what size bulbs should it be for a 2001 em2? same ??

I have a Honda Civic ex coupe and my check engine light is out. It is the only thing on the dash that doesn’t turn on when I turn the key. Can I use this method if I get the bulb?

Cool. Thank u

my 2004 honda civic EX cluster does not have any visible twist bulbs. Anyone else run into this? I dont think it's been replaced

thank you, and what size where the ones you used?

on the left side there's to lights that turns on in the bottom one of them stay on I tried to reset it but it doesn't go away what else can I do

Thanks man ;)

You can pop the lights out of the twist to save yourself some money I did it with a Wawa gift card.

Blue is High Beam.

Is it necessary to disconnect the battery while doing this?

I put it back and the lights only work when the headlights are off... once i turn the headlights on, lighting turns off, could that be a burned fuse?

How can your honda go 240 speed how is that possible

The part number on the bag is 78181-S84-A02

Anybody know the bulb type a 2001 civic needs???

anyone knows how to take off or replace 2007 honda fit cluster?

Anyone know a video on this on a 9th gen ?

I paid nothing at the juckyard. And I got a bunch them.

anybody no how to do this on a 2010 HONDA ACCORD LX 4 SEDAN 8th gen..Thanks, i been looking everywhere!!

Thank you for the video....very helpful....this is Greg even though I'm logged in with my wife's account.....I replaced all the bulbs in my 2002 Honda Civic with LED's (they cost $11.65 for 10 on Ebay with free shipping)....I think that as the stock bulbs age they get more and more dim, because in the before photo, you can see how dim mine were: LED bulb link: www.ebay.com/itm/121175926771?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEWNX%3AIT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649 Before photo: www.dropbox.com/s/0d96mxp0qc6yzwu/Before.jpg After photo: www.dropbox.com/s/nme8km87rdmqg2g/After.jpg In the after photo, it looks like the odometer is blinding bright, but it's not.....that's just how the photo turned out.....if you do this to your car, LED's only work in one position so if they don't light, remove them and reverse the way they plug into the socket, and plug them back in...... Needle nose pliers are the tool you need. When removing them, grab the white LED when it's exposed so it doesn't come unplugged and fall inside (I didn't take the white piece off the back)....... Put Saran Wrap over the tips of the needle nose pliers so they are non-conductive......some videos say to disconnect the battery, but since you have to test every LED as you go along, you can't do this..... the sockets for the lamps are picky....some LED's wouldn't work and I'd move them to a different hole and then they worked fine.....a bit of juggling and they were all working.....the bulb with the blue base is the cruise control indicator and it wouldn't work with an LED (it stayed on even when the car wasn't running) but since the original with the blue base wasn't burnt out, I just put it back in.....that bulb doesn't seem dim....what's strange is there are things that light up and display on my dash with no replaceable bulb behind them.....they must have soldered non-replaceable bulbs behind these.... Something that's messed up is they sell replacement "clusters" (all the dials in the dashboard behind the steering wheel) on Ebay and the mileage is saved in each cluster, so replacing one with a new one would show you have zero miles on your car...the chip that stores mileage should be mounted somewhere on the frame so cars can't change the amount of actual miles displayed just by changing a part....they had a brand new one that would fit my car on Ebay for a little over $80....
