Do you find that either one or both of your headlights is looking a bit dimmer than normal? It’s totally okay – though we’ve gone over the hump of the longest night of the year, it’s still dark out much earlier than in the summer and we’re bound to notice any headlight issues quite easily! So, if you do see that you’ve got a problem developing, check out why it might be happening!

If one headlight isn’t working, then you probably have a burned out bulb or other component relating to your headlight operation. This is an easy fix that your dealer can do for you. If neither of the headlights are working, it’s likely a bad component (i.e. a fuse, relay, or module) or the wiring. Have your dealer check your bulbs anyway!

If your high or low beams aren’t working, it could be the bulb(s), but it could also be because of a bad relay or control switch that’s stopped working properly.

If both of your headlights work, but are dim, then the lenses could be foggy or dirty or your headlights could just be nearing the ends of their natural lives. However, if they’re only dim in certain situations it could be a problem with your charging system. Before you take your vehicle to your dealer for diagnosis and repair, clean your headlights with cleaning solution or soap and water and a clean cloth to make sure that your headlights aren’t just dirty!
