Help! A/C lights out!!! - Honda Prelude Forum

Ok, turned on my lights tonight, and noticed just one set of my A/C control panel is out, just the ones that show the direction of the air, rather at your feet or in your face, etc. All other back lights work fine. Can I fix this myself? and if so, can someone tell me where to buy the lights at? Could this simply be a fuse, as well? I figured if it were simply a fuse, the entire panel would be out. Any help is appreciated.

they are little LED's with inline resistors that sit behind each button. you are right though, the entire panel would be out if it were a fuse.

most likely either the LED burnt out or the resistor failed. to fix this you'll have to take the climate control apart and do some soldering.

you can refer to this write-up on how to do it: Writeup: LED Climate Control - Preludepower.com

No, I'm not going to even try that. I'm familiar with this mod, having seen it years ago, when NTPOG first put it up. However, there has to be a simpler way to remedy this. I'm considering just bringing it to Honda, but irst was hoping someone else has had the same issue by now...Anyone?
