Where is the fuse on a Honda Accord headlight?
Pop the hood to access the fuse box. Using your owner’s manual, determine which fuse is the headlight fuse. Pull the headlight fuse using the fuse puller. If the fuse puller is missing from the fuse box, a pair of tweezers will also suffice. Check the metal link inside the fuse.
What should the battery voltage be on a Honda Accord?
Connect the positive voltmeter wire to the positive (red) side of the battery, and the negative voltmeter wire to the negative (black) side of the battery. The battery should read between 12.5 to 12.8 volts. Jump start the battery if a greater charge is needed. While the car is idling, the battery should achieve 13.5 to 14.5 volts.
