D4 light off...

jonblizz · Jul 1, 2010

A little background , I had the tranny replaced under the Honda factory recall at 95k im currently at 132k

So my D4 Light went out yesterday , There arent any problems with the tranny as far as driving no weird sounds no weird jerking. When i put the car in any other gear the the light works. Im thinking that maybe i need to just replace the D4 light...
What do you guys think?

Start simple/easy....replace the bulb and don't over think it.

When you replace the bulbs use gloves, you dont want the oil from your fingers to get on the bulb. It will cause hot spots and premature burn outs.

i thought this was only true for head light bulbs and not for other types of bulbs?

Yeah that bulb (D?) went out on me too as well as well as the bulb for the temp gauge last year. Not too bad to change. You need to remove the whole instrument cluster and disconnect some stuff. The haynes manual has a nice guide, if you have one. I'll do a DIY if my bulb ever goes out again.
