There is a service bulletin (04-027) that describes this issue. The repair
is to replace the audio unit.

I have a 2003 and noticed the same problem about a month ago. I finally
brought it in and am waiting for the new unit (2 weeks now). Thank god it's still under warranty. Anyone know how much a replacement would cost? -Andy robert3100 wrote: > Hi could anyone help me I just purchased a 2003 Honda accord the weirdest > thing just happen I went to turn my car on and the radio lights won’t > light up the radio works you could see the stations but only if you point > a flash light to the display.

I have this same problem, but I am out of warranty. The dealership told me
it would be approximately $1000 to replace the radio. It is ridiculous that this is such a common problem, yet there has been no recall issued. If any one knows of a cheaper fix, I would be extremely excited to hear it. |

Some people in this newsgroup managed to get it replaced for free or for only the cost of the labour after going through Honda customer service. And their cars were out of warranty as well. |

V6 Hondas with the 5-speed automatic were recalled, and that isn't exactly a safety item. Ford and Crapsler, for example, never recalled any of their cars that were more notorious for tranny failure than any Honda. |
