Why is Half of the Daytime Running Light on the 9.5th Generation Accord Not Working?
2 Answers
It may be due to a malfunction in the LED light. Here is some extended information about the Honda Accord: Model Introduction: The Accord (Accord), a testament to Honda's innovative spirit and global leading technology, has a 38-year global history. The original tires for the Accord are Michelin ultra-high-performance sports tires. On April 16, 2018, the all-new generation Honda Accord, also known as the 10th generation Honda Accord, was officially launched in China. To address changes in contact area during high-speed cornering, Michelin adopted variable contact area technology on the PSS. The luxury version is equipped with 215/60R16 Michelin tires. Market Positioning: A leading model in China's mid-to-high-end car segment, setting a new technological benchmark in the mid-to-high-end car market. Solution: If the daytime running light is malfunctioning within the warranty period, it can be repaired for free at a 4S dealership.
As an owner of a 9.5th-generation Accord, I've also encountered the issue where half of the daytime running lights (DRLs) stop working. This is most likely caused by a failure in part of the LED light strip, as these lights are designed in grouped segments - when one section fails, half the lighting dims. DRLs are crucial for daytime driving visibility, and having half of them out significantly reduces safety. During my own inspection, I found that loose connections due to aging wiring or moisture ingress might be the culprit. Sometimes simply adjusting the connectors can temporarily fix it, but it's best to get a professional diagnosis. Regular maintenance should include checking light functionality, and cleaning the lens covers can prevent moisture buildup to extend lifespan. If the entire module needs replacement, it can be costly, but never compromise on safety by delaying repairs.
