I just finished attempting to replace driver side actuator...everything was going fine until i realised the acura dealership in montreal sold me the passenger side actuator! To top off my wonderful afternoon, all lights from center console ( climate control, radio and time display ) came off shortly after re assembling the door panel? Any input would be appreciated at this point...Were talking about an 05 tsx

 

There's an extended warranty on the centre console lights. Search the forums and you'll find it -- it might even be on the first page of Problems and Fixes section.

Whatever you do, do NOT mention to the dealership that you were doing anything to the car yourself. You don't want to give them an 'out' of the warranty work!

 

The waranty ran out at 80 000km...

 

The extended warranty on the HVAC / radio lights was to 160,000km (I think)...

 

Here's a pic of the service bulletin (for the American cars its 100,000 miles, which is about 160,000km):

thanks everyone for the prompt responses...i checked up this issue, and came to the conclusion that my situation is probably different since not one light in the car is functional, im thinking the interior light fuse is out, any idea where this fuse is located?? Thanks again..

 

Two fuse boxes - under the dash next to drivers' left foot. Other one is under the hood near the battery. Both have a "map" on the underside of their cover to show which fuse is for what, and what rating (Amps) it is.

 

i already checked the one on the left side of the driver seat, couldnt find any fuse designating interior lighting, will check under the hood later on, thanks curl, your input is appreciated..
