1998 Honda Accord - 5 Symptoms of Electrical Issue Sign In

Ok, so I have a few issues and hopefully I'll get someone who knows what they are doing, because the Honda dealership in town is a bunch of idiots and can't figure out the issue.


Symptom #1 - with my car running, I can turn on my headlights...when I turn the key off, the headlights go off...no dinging sound like there used to be.

Symptom #2 - My car can't remember my A/C settings...when it used to. I can turn off car and have to turn all AC buttons on again.

Symptom #3 - My glove box light and vanity mirror lights aren't working

Symptom #4 - My #13 fuse which is labeled as the Clock blows out on contact - this is supposedly also the fuse for my ready codes for inspection purposes?

Symptom #5 - Clock is not working


Ok...here's what I tried. Disconnected clock - Fuse still blew. Replace PASSENGER SIDE Multiplex Unit - Fuse still blew...no issues fixed.

What else could it be? I've never done any wiring changes or any type of modification to any wiring at all...so i would find it hard to believe that the wires just all of a sudden started shorting out...is there something else that connects to that fuse that it might be?

hmm, that's what i thought first too, that it might be the clock shorting out... but if you disconnected it and installed the fuse and it blew immediately, then maybe it's a breaker? the fuse could be seeing too much amperage for what it's rated causing it to blow...
