Hey guys i just put a white 194 led bulb in the license plate socket, and it worked and looked alright, then i took it out and put some tin foil to make the led reflect (since leds are direct light) back in and put the cover on and now my tail lights and license plate lights don't work! i tried the key in every position and i tried the lights with the car on.

my headlights, turn signals, and brake lights still work. but the tails and license plate light are not working at all. wtf did i do

does anyone know what fuse i should check?




EDIT: fixed it, small red fuse with the # 10 on it. i think it was labeled small light on the fuse cover by your clutch foot.

 

fuse box?

 

i was planning on doing this, in for answer. have done this on my wife's rsx and no ill effects but it has regular incan tails

 

CHECK THE FUSES!!!

 

found it finally. I checked almost all of them before i found which was blown. Its a little red 10 fuse, under the the dash above and left of your clutch pedal

Mods can delete this thread if you want.

 

Oh that's where the fuse box is, now I know.

Btw why check them all when they are labeled?

 

lol, I was gonna say you prolly installed the LED backwards...glad you found your problem though!

 

ive owned 5 hondas and never had to change a fuse lol.
And there are 3 fuse boxes in the S so i was stating which one. They are not specifically labelled, go read some of them.
