Fog Light Bulb Replacement (on some models)

~2min read

Halogen bulbs are used in the vehicle's headlamps. When replacing a burned-out bulb, hold the new bulb only by its plastic base, do not touch the glass envelope with your fingers, and protect it from contact with hard objects. If fingerprints or grease get on the bulb glass, wipe it with a clean cloth dampened with alcohol.

Halogen bulbs become very hot during operation. Oil, dirt, or scratches on the bulb glass can cause the bulb to overheat and fail quickly.

The fog lights were correctly adjusted when the vehicle was delivered.

However, if you frequently carry heavy loads in the cargo area or tow a trailer, the headlight beam aim may need to be readjusted.

For this procedure, contact an authorized Honda dealer service center.
