Honda Repair: 2005 Honda CRV headlight, 2005 honda crv, honda cr v

Question
The left headlight is OK. The turn signal works both sides till I turn on the
headlights. Then the right one does not work. that is a Honda safety feature.
Non working turn signal on full lamps is to warn the owner there is a burned
out head lamp. The right headlight will not burn. The bulb is good. Checked
with an Ohm meter and attached the battery charger to it and it lights up. An
H1 Silverstar bulb is BRIGHT. Especially right in front of you. The wiring
harness that plugs into the adapter that the H1 bulb sits in is getting voltage
with the motor running and the headlights are on. The right turn signal works
with no lights on. Also works with just the 'parking lights'. When the
headlights are turned on, it goes out and the right turn signal glows on the
dash. It does not look like the turn signal bulb is a multi filament. If it was
then maybe it is the problem and not the headlight. I've checked the adapter
the H1 bulb connects to and there is no short. Just a little confused. leaned
the sockets. Made sure the connections at the bulb is making contact.
Changed out the turn signal bulb this morning (5:30 am) No change yet. Still
confused here.

Answer
Jeffrey, you are not the first person to ask me this similar problem for Honda CR-V's, second generation, 2001 - 2007. Apparently there is a major flaw with the headlight system in these years. Factory default? Probably, but, no recalls available. Apparently you can continue to just replace the bulbs. But, I think the problem lies in the dimmer switch that runs the relays for the lights. Other people have just replaced bulbs. Unfortunately this problem leads to alot of faults within the headlight wiring system. Your problem could be a bulb or a relay or a switch. It is truly trial and error. I would start by inspecting the relays and switches looking for corrosion.
