What owners wrote
Both low beam headlights failed simultaneously. Subsequently repaired at a honda dealer. Repair required a new hi/lo beam switch and connector/wiring harness. I requested old parts and upon inspection, one of the metal connector pins (male and female) was discolored (black) due to heating with some distortion and discoloration of the connector block due to heating. Attached wire also discolored due to heating.
Tl* the contact owns a 2004 honda cr-v. The contact stated the low beam headlights stopped working sporadically. The failure occurred several times and as temporary fix she verified the fuse were damaged and replaced the headlights. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the problem. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 110,000 and the current mileage was 230,000. Updated 11/23/11 updated 12/05/11
