Tenth-generation Accord headlight with the daytime running light strip dark on one section

Accord DRL strip burned out

The Honda Accord DRL is an LED strip sealed inside the headlight. You may see:

  • One side dark while the other still glows
  • A strip that is patchy, dim or flickering
  • The DRL out after water got into the headlight

The usual answer is that the strip cannot be changed on its own, so you need the entire headlight assembly. Repair opens your original headlight, replaces the strip and reseals it. Tell us the symptom and we'll confirm whether the LED or DRL module can be repaired.

Condensation inside a 2018–2020 Accord headlight

Fog or droplets that come back after every wash or rain mean the seal has failed. Left alone, that moisture can take out the LEDs.

The repair dries the unit, reseals it and checks the electronics, as in Headlight Condensation Repair & Resealing.

Accord LED headlight out on one side

On trims with a Honda Accord LED headlight, a low or high beam that goes out, flickers or brings up a headlight warning is a fault inside the unit, not a bulb.

The fix is the one in LED Headlight Repair, done on your Accord headlight. Daytime running light faults on every make are in DRL Repair (Daytime Running Lights).

Both sides have moisture. Should I send both headlights?
