Are you in the dark about whether you need to visit a Kia dealer to have your low beams replaced? Do you feel you spend too much money on replacement light bulbs? Let us shed some light on the reasons your Kia might need new headlights.
Are They Dull?
The low beams on your vehicle should shine bright like a diamond. They illuminate the road during a storm or after the sun sets. Lights with a lackluster shine are nearing the end of their lifespan. You need to replace them before they completely stop working.
Are They Flickering?
It shouldn’t feel like your low beams are trying to send you a message via Morse code as you drive down the road at night. Flickering lights are often the first sign of an electrical connection issue. Eventually, the lights will just stop working.
Are They Murky?
Did you know dust, dirt, and other debris from the road can saturate lights? This can cause them to turn yellow or become hazy. UV rays of the sun can also cause your low beams to become murky. Unfortunately, lights have a hard time working properly if they are dirty. Your lights either need to be replaced or properly cleaned.
Are The Bulbs Constantly Burning Out?
No one wants to play a dangerous game of hide and seek with their low beams during a night drive. Your bulbs could be on their last lumens. It might not be the bulbs raising the white flag, though. Sometimes a bulb will burn out because of a deeper issue. If you frequently change your light bulbs, you might have a larger electrical issue.
Are Your High Beams Not Working?
Your high beams not working may not seem like a huge issue. This malfunction is a sign of an electrical connection issue. Do not ignore your high beams malfunctioning. In time, the electrical issue could get worse.
Are You Frequently Blowing Fuses?
Blown fuses happen from time to time. Just don’t allow yourself to justify frequently purchasing new fuses. Many culprits could cause you to blow a fuse, such as the lighting switch, the wiring, or even the use of the wrong light bulbs. Sometimes a frequently blown fuse means your lights need to be replaced.
Don’t live in fear of driving your Kia Forte after the sun sets or in a storm. A fresh set of low beams might be a simple fix to your problem. If you said yes to any of the questions above, head to Kia West Chester in West Chester, PA to get your beams inspected today.
