Just unscrew/twist the bulb holder ,about a quarter trun, at the back of the headlight unit.

  • Grommie Jan 06, 2011

    I just got done doing both of mine. Here is a little more complete an answer:
    1. If it is the left headlight you will want to remove the battery because there isn't much room for your hand otherwise.
    2. The headlight is held in place by a plastic housing/holder. Turn this holder 1/4 turn counter clockwise. This may not be easy, as the housing can tend to get gummed up and stuck. If it won't budge (as mine didn't at first) try using a large set of gripper pliers for some added torque.
    3. Once the housing has been rotated, wiggle the bulb back out of the housing.
    4. Now you need to remove the wire attachment from the bulb. There is a clip that needs to disengaged. Do this by pushing down on the little lever at the end/bottom of the attachment. This will lever the clip (at the top of the attachment) away from the wedge on the bulb's exterior so you can slide the wire attachment off. This too might need some prying and wiggling to disengage.
    5. Attach the new bulb to the wire attachment, sliding the attachment up until it clicks over the bulb housing wedge.
    6. Place the bulb back in the plastic housing by aligning the tabs on the bulb with the openings on the housing. Make sure it is all the way inserted.
    7. Turn the bulb holder back clockwise this time 1/4 turn to secure the bulb in place.
    8. If you had to remove the battery, reconnect it.

Brake Lights out on 1991 Honda Accord

After you have checked the fuseand the bulb connection, you may also want to check the brake switch located at top of the brake padel under the dashboard. Once you push the brake padel, the switch will trigger and the brake light will be on. Use simple 12 volt test pen or voltmeter to test the current supply. Enjoy it.

Headlights on a 1991 Honda Accord

the bulb gets replaced from the back the front headlight covers do not come off .You first have to unplug the wiring connector to the bulb you are replacing which sometimes is a pain then you twist the ring that's around the bulb to unlock it from the housing then pull the bulb straight out .If the bulb your replacing is on the same side as the battery you will need to remove the battery because there wont be enough room for you to access

1991 honda accord ex headlight problems

Hello, firstly I was wondering if the lights shut off when you pull the switch off the harness?
If YES, then THAT switch or wiring could be bad
if NO, then it's most likely the body control module

Charging problem

Possible solution. It could be the belt tensioner. It might not hold the belt tight enough to have a consistent charge to the battery through the alternator. I had to replace the one on my 91 accord and that solved my problem.

1991 Honda Accord Starting/Ignition trouble

sounds like a bad battery or the battery cables are corroded where they hook up to the battery or loose. if it cranks for a couple seconds slow than clicks quickly there isnt enough voltage getting to the starter. not all new parts are good.
