How do I turn off the auto high beams on my Honda Accord?

I just bought a new Honda Accord and I’ve noticed my high beams adjust automatically whenever another vehicle is approaching. Do you know how to turn off the auto high beam feature on my Honda Accord?

Great question! Most new

vehicles come equipped with auto high-beam assist. The system is meant to support safer driving—it automatically switches the headlights from a low beam setting to a high beam setting when it detects another vehicle or pedestrian.
But not every driver prefers to have this system activated. Luckily, deactivating the high-beam assist feature is relatively easy. Below we’ve outlined how to properly turn off the auto high beams on your Honda Accord:
  • Put your vehicle in park.
  • Turn the ignition off.
  • Turn the light switch to AUTO.
  • Pull the light switch lever toward you and hold for 40 seconds.
The auto high-beam indicator light should blink twice. This means the system has been disabled!
