RookieReplaced the bulb but still no map light. Works on right side but quit working in '08 on lefthand side. Fuse is good because it works on the righthand side. Any suggestions beside going to the dealership?

RookieI have replaced a map light and now it stays on permanently. Your problem seems to be the opposite. I traced my problem to a defective switch. It's an Alps SPED210200, but I can't find it online from any site, but one that wants to charge a $35 minimum (onlinecomponents.com). Honda does not seem to sell the switch as a stand-alone item--only as an assembly.

both dome lights would not come on when door opened. Removed assembly and switches and cleaned the connections and got one of them working. moved switch from working side to other side and other side started to work so I think one of the switches is bad. You can buy them individually from mouser elctronics (alps SPED210200)

2006 Pilot map lights burned out, but after replacing bulbs, the map lights work but only one comes on with door opening. Appears to be an electrical (wiring) problem.
