Default electrical---95 accord

ok, well a few years ago my honda accords lights went out (dash) all the lights excptlike the a/c indicater or the clock, etc...
well yea when i put on the head lights they go out.
then about 2 years later the retractable antenna broke (theres still an anttenna it jus doesnt go down) and it makes the buzzing noise it would typicaly make but doesnt move,
then recently my locks went out , (power locks) and the back door lock jams so you cant lock it.

have u checked the fuse(s)? they're usually right beside the footrest on the driver side.

for the power antenna unit...it's just a motor attached to gears, which attach to a plastic line with teeth, to pull the antenna in/out. either that line broke...or it's not aligned with the gears. u can disassemble it to check. if no longer repairable, then shop around the net or local junkyard/dismantler.

for the $500 camera...sorry dude

oh..and be careful when disassembling..i think there was a spring in there that popped all the parts out as soon as i opened the casing i had to spend more time figuring out which part goes where afterwards

i dont remember exactly...it's been a while...but shouldnt be much...i think just a couple of gear wheels, a magnet, and a couple of springs to provide tension. not really that difficult, just tedious to put back coz the pieces are so small...just make sure the magnet is put back the right way coz wrong polarity will reverse the direction of the antenna (i.e., IN instead of OUT). if ur gonna replace it anyway, might as well open it up, right?
