Troubleshooting
Headlight not turning on
Verify that the correct bulb types (PY21W, H7, W5W, WY5W) are installed properly and are not burnt out. Check the electrical connections to the headlight assembly for security and corrosion. Consult a mechanic to test the vehicle's headlight wiring and fuse.
Indicator light not functioning
Ensure the PY21W indicator bulb is correctly seated and functional. Check the vehicle's fuse box for the indicator circuit fuse. Inspect wiring harness connections for any damage or loose pins.
Beam misalignment after installation
The headlight assembly features adjustment screws for horizontal and vertical alignment. Refer to your vehicle's service manual or consult a professional mechanic to adjust the beam pattern correctly. Incorrect alignment can impair visibility and be illegal.
Moisture inside the headlight assembly
This can indicate a compromised seal. Check the seals around the bulb openings and the main housing. If damage is found, the seal may need to be repaired or the headlight assembly replaced. Driving with moisture inside can damage bulbs and reflectors.
