or maybe someone should just take the main power form the headlight switch and hook it to the ignition. so lights are only on when key is on. so lights turn off with the key.

I WILL DO THIS. I AM THE WOOOOOOOOOORST AT LEAVING MY LIGHTS ON...NICE!!!

GREAT INFO!!!

synergy10 · 02-02-2007, 11:33 PM

Wish I saw this about a month ago. I left my lights on after driving on one of those, sunny (lights off), then gloomy (lights on), then sunny (lights are still on cause my dumbass forgot) days.

HondaPartsHero · 02-03-2007, 06:01 AM

the fuses are rear defroster (ground) and headlights (power). this has been around for years and it works fine

fireant · 02-03-2007, 07:41 AM

Its true, those fuses do work, but it just feels wierd jamming wires into them.

onemore · 02-03-2007, 08:45 AM

Glad I saw this my wife always leaves her lights on

b18apwr · 02-03-2007, 08:51 AM

For clarity, this method is: lights on, keys off to buzz, correct? I've drawn out a circuit with two relays for: lights on, keys off, door open to buzz. I may look at adding these two fuse box locations and dropping one of the relays. Thanks.

fireant · 02-03-2007, 09:00 AM

correct, the buzz happens when the lights are on and the keys are off, whether or not the doors are open.

ilovemyb16a · 02-03-2007, 09:03 AM

im going try it

HBK · 02-03-2007, 09:46 AM

Is this just for headlights, or does it work for interior lights left on as well. I'm known for leaving my dome light on

fireant · 02-03-2007, 09:46 AM

just headlights as far as I know.

92civicfreak · 02-03-2007, 10:03 AM

A good option, especially for anyone using the other plugs already for something else.

FIGARILA · 02-03-2007, 01:54 PM

man i need to do this.....i ended up just carrying jumper cable with me cause i leave the lights on often.

grog · 02-03-2007, 03:01 PM

like i posted before, these clips stretch out the fuse slots. making it too big for just a fuse(i had to bend them to fit). if you can do it the "correct way" then why not, it saves you from damaging the fuse slots. which i cant see how you can bend them back, maybe if you open it up.
but, to each his own.

91ed9 · 02-03-2007, 04:08 PM

i just did this beeper thing and it works when the car is off and the healights are on, but also when i turned on my car to go for a drive and put my headlights on it also started to beep.. any suggestions i mean there are only 2 plugs lol

fireant · 02-03-2007, 04:12 PM

hmmm, check all your fuses.

stemiched · 02-03-2007, 05:53 PM

i have been wanting to do this for a while... i have forgotten my headlights on and drained my battery at least 4 times this school year... always forget about my head lights when worrying about getting my backpack... will have to do this as soon as i can get to radio shack...

Pay2play killa · 02-03-2007, 05:59 PM

wierd!

there was a beeper on my car when I bought it that does just what this thread is meant to do.

I thought it was stock

I guess someone that had the car before me wasn't as stupid as I thought they were

UfoTofU · 02-06-2007, 11:26 AM

Worked for me!

Very nice.

ryan89crx · 02-06-2007, 12:32 PM

Just borrowing your pic ^^^

So, I already have a wire plugged into the right socket (red clip above). Its for my power window switches that light up when the headlights are turned on.

Can I just put the wire from the beeper (beeper red wire above) with the current wire (from switch) together? Then plug the ground (black wire) from the beeper into the other socket?

UltimX · 02-10-2007, 12:27 PM

i have a question. what exactly are the plugs for if you don't have the mod in? alarm?
