Tails lights out, brake lights still working… Which fuse?
Hello,
Which fuse in which fuse box do I replace?
Also, the lights that illuminate the dials for the amount of heat and amount of fan are out too. Separate problem which started earlier I believe.
Finally, the cabin light has been out/intermittent for a long time. Annoying problem because I have no light when I get in the car. I’ve changed the bulb and it worked intermittently.
I’ve read about moisture problems which could be the cause of this. I live in the PNW. So it’s dank.
I want to replace all door gaskets if anyone has suggestions of where to find them.
Thanks in advance.

Can anyone help with this?
Please help! I’m surprised none of the Freaks on this site have not replied. I called the dealership and they won’t tell me which fuse it is due to liability reasons.

Tall lights: Check Under-dash Fuse/Relay Box Fuse No. 22 (10A) (see attached). If the fuse checks out re-seed the TAILLIGHT RELAY (Under-dash Fuse/Relay Box. It's in the row of relays above fuses 31 and 30. Fourth one from the left).
Cabin light: Intermittent nature confirms that it's probably moisture related. I've stopped chasing that one down on a 1990 Accord
Door gaskets can be found online. Prices vary. I've had good luck with Honda Parts Now on the west coast. Contact them with the part numbers to confirm availability etc.
i.e. SEAL, R. FT DOOR (outer)

Thanks again @jljimenezp … problem solved!
It was just the fuse. You saved me from having to pull each one, one at a time. In the manual that comes with the car, the fuse box diagram calls that fuse “small light.” WTH?!? You would think with the amount of cars Honda sells in English speaking countries they would just call it “rear lights” or “tail lights.”
I am annoyed with the dealership as well. I know their techs could have told me that info but they wanted me to bring it in. To swap that fuse they would have charged me a full hour of shop time I’m sure, probably at $150/hr. To be fair, I didn’t buy the car there new, but I have bought another car there once before and they have worked on this one. Had I bought this one new I would have been pretty irate for the run around.
End rant.
Anyway, thanks again.
