2005 Accord radio display goes off when lights are turned on.

Title says it all, sorry if it's been covered I am on the way out the door for work and I thought I'd ask here. It is OK with the lights off and you can see the display, just with no back light when the lights are turned on. The light in the glove box is off too, but I can't find a blown fuse.

Well, I fiddled with the dimmer when the wife got home tonight and it worked just fine. It didn't last night but it does now, that's fine with me. It healed itself.

I seem to remember an issue with a loose connector causing that problem. I suggest you search a little further because it will probably reappear when that connector shifts around again. Wish I could remember which connector they said it was, behind the radio I think. Try the HondaAccordForum site, I think that is where I saw it posted.

Thank you sir, I'll follow up some, you're right that it will probably pop up again.
