    Had to do this on my Element and initially tried bulbs from other sources that didn't work out. I was surprised at the little differences in similar size bulbs; seems like they would standardize this. I love all of your Honda Element video's and Save every video you do. Please keep the Honda Element in your lineup. I don't naturally get my hands to dirty but with encouragement from you I enjoy the challenge.

    • @ericthecarguy

      I wish I would have mentioned that in the video. Use of aftermarket bulbs or LED's doesn't often work out for repairs like this in my experience. As for more Element content, I'm actually giving this one to my brother soon. I'm not sure how much I'll see it after that. I have done a bunch of videos with it already though. Many are linked in the description. Thank you for your comment.

    I had an 03 Acura RSX where the HVAC lights all went out...same bulbs used here. I decided I didn't want to spend $10 a bulb and instead soldered an LED w/ resistor to the contact pads for the bulb. Worked great and was an economical fix if you aren't squeamish about soldering

  • @davidb.fishburn9338
    @davidb.fishburn9338 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Eric, you did not need to turn the key on to take the shifter out of park. There's a shifter override right there at the bottom of the shifter slot, that little panel hides a tab that you push to pop the shifter out of park, no need to even have the keys to do it. For those who are not aware, many cars now have an override of one type or another to allow the trans to be put in neutral. Mainly for towing with a dead battery, but it is also useful for when wheel alignments are done, since the car has to move a little on the alignment rack during the compensation procedure. Allows the trans to be taken out of park without having everything staying on and draining the battery. One thing i do like here is the easy access and replacement of the bulbs, much cheaper than having to replace the entire HVAC control panel. Many cars have leds in the panels that are not replaceable, which means that it can get expensive to replace the entire panel assembly.

    Normally I do not comment, but I will make an exception: years ago my dad bought a 2004 oddysey (used and quite abused), most of the lights of the buttons no longer worked (including those of the a/c); here in Mexico they are quite difficult to find and too expensive at the dealer. To make a long story short, I changed them to led (mini led), I put a resistor in series and it worked. It's been 5 years now and they still work. Greetings Eric from Ciudad Obregón.

    I did this for the gauge cluster bulbs on my 2006 Element but went with a pack of LED ones. About $10 from Amazon - I think a dozen in the pack. Only issue was having to flip the orientation 180 degrees if they didn’t light up - LEDs require proper +\- orientation or they won’t work. They don’t dim well but my eyes need the bright dash anyways.

    Honda charges a small fortune for these bulb/sockets. You can also get just the tiny bulbs on ebay, maybe Amazon. Take the old bulbs out of the socket by bending the fine wires that wrap around the socket base and then slip the new bulbs in. I've done this on my CR-V and Accord. Works great - just check for the right bulb size, brightness and color before ordering.

      I don't' recommend that. Fitment of aftermarket bulbs isn't that great, not to mention they have different resistance values that could screw other things up. I'd recommend OE bulbs if you were doing this job for best results.

    Hi Eric, the dial bulb part number is 79629-S3V-A01, small typo in your description.

    Eric replaces one bulb.
    Me screaming internally: you there, if one went out, the other ones will soon, just replace everything.
    Eric at the end of the video: Just replaced the bad ones and now the ones that worked are dead...

      In my defense I'm giving this vehicle to my brother soon and didn't want to spend a bunch of money if I could avoid it. Thanks for the comment.

    12 vdc LED replacements available? They should last "forever". Surprised to see incandescent bulbs.

      I don't recommend the use of LED's, or aftermarket bulbs in this application. I've seen them cause issues, especially when it comes to the dimming feature.

    Thanks for the vid! Looks like the correct item number for the dial bulbs is actually "79629-S3V-A01" rather than "79629-SV3-A01" as mentioned in the description?

    I’ve replaced similar bulbs on my old Ridgeline... they’re expensive for what they are. $7 - $8 each if I remember correctly.

      Probably because they are specialty light bulbs.
      Would be way cheaper, if they were ordinary household light bulbs.

    I'm not sure how cheap those honda bulbs are, but when I tried to buy bulbs from Hyundai they wanted around $10 per bulb. I found you can actually buy _just the bulb_ for < 50c (I believe I got mine at bulbtown) and put it on the old socket pretty easily.
    I just bought them in bulk and did every single bulb in both my Hyundai and Subaru to get it over with.
