2007 Honda Accord. Headlights flicker periodically. Suspect taillights are doing the same. Reported to dealership. They tested battery and charging system and could not find a problem. Took to my mechanic. Same result. Replaced bulbs in lights. Problem remains. Had electronics shop check all data system but there are no listings. Online bulletin board suggests this is a pervasive issue with Honda vehicles but Honda has not addressed it. I don't know if this is an electrical problem or just faulty vehicles but the dimming of lights at night time when following another driver could be mistaken as me trying to get their attention. In the seattle, wa area that could be a dangerous thing. . . . Please help!!.
It's a major design flaw of Honda to deviate from the standard that the dash lights do not illuminate unless the headlights are on. I'm sure most other drivers are accustomed to this standard. Compound that with other vehicle models (of which we have two) that will turn on headlights automatically, and you have serious potential to drive at night without nothing but the automatic running lights on. These running lights produce enough reflective light, along with the dash lights, to lead the driver to believe they have the headlights on.
