Civic Lighting Fault

I'm having a weird electrical issue with my 2023 Honda Civic Hybrid. The car has about 43009 km on it. Basically, I'm experiencing a fault in the lighting. The lights switch on seemingly randomly, and when I had it checked, there's an error stored related to the light switch. I've checked all the fuses I could find, but they seem fine. Could this be a dimmer switch issue or some kind of electrical problem? I am guessing it could be a defective cable or plug connection?

I had a similar problem with my Civic. It sounds like a faulty headlight switch. Have you tried wiggling the switch or the surrounding wires to see if it triggers the lights?

Thanks for the quick reply! When you say wiggling the switch, do you mean the dimmer switch specifically? And did you also get an error code stored in the memory when your lights acted up?

Yes, I mean the dimmer switch. And yes, there was indeed an error code present. Given the symptoms and the error code, I would suggest having a qualified technician examine the wiring and switch. In my case, the issue was resolved with a new switch. It cost 95€, including labor.

Okay, that's super helpful! I'll take it to a workshop to get the switch and wiring checked. I really appreciate the insight!
