There is a small electric motor inside the actuator assembly that has probably "burned out". Same problem with my 03 pilot. The remote would not lock the other doors or arm the security system unless you physically locked the driver's side door. Eventually my passenger side burned out as well. Fixed it myself pretty easily. Cheap fix too. works like new now. http://www.ebay.com/itm/120935451126?var=420082237231&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
The Honda Pilot is a mid-d sport utility vehicle introduced in 2003. The 2005 modelcame in three different types: the LX, EX and EX-L. In the center of theinterior roof is a dome light, or map light. All you need is a screwdriver to complete the job. Once removed, you can add new electronics to the Pilot'sroof.
1. Turn off the dome light and the car's engine.
2. Insert a flat headscrewdriver into the edge of the map light plastic cover.
3. Pry the cover off until itpops out of place.
4. Locate the two screws on theinside of the light mount and remove them with the screwdriver.
5. Remove the plastic domelight fixture to access the connector attached to the bulb.
6. Detach the connector fromthe dome light bulb. The dome light fixture can now be removed. Hope this is what you are searching..
Look on the sides of the dome light and look for a tiny little notch in the plastic. Take a screwdriver and gently pry at the notch and it should just pop out
This is a real pain, took me forever to find mine... there is a little TINY slot that you can fit a VERY small flat head screwdriver in to pop it off.
Dont worry, the plastic is durable, just try to use a precision screwdriver if you have one and basically pry it open. it really will just Pop off once you get in there
Filament gets fractured, possibly by vibration of the roof lining. I have replaced mine 4 times and while the bulb looks OK it is high resistance, buy a few bulbs and replace them when it occurs.
Try replacing the bulb it really is east. Gently pry off dome so as to not break it and with all doors closed you should be able to remove bulb and replace it. The dealership will do this for about 150 US Good Luck
