Do I Need to Replace the Entire Headlight Assembly If the Low Beam Bulb Is Broken?
1 Answers
No. If the bulb is broken, just replace the bulb. It is not common for the high beam or low beam to fail, and the causes are usually simple, such as a broken wire, poor contact in the plug, a blown fuse for the high or low beam, a damaged light relay, a broken bulb, or damage to the headlight assembly. More details are as follows: 1. Check the fuse: Check whether the relay and bulb are damaged and replace them if necessary. Different car models have different headlight structures, which can include two-lamp or four-lamp systems. 2. Car headlights include: high beam and low beam. The basic function of both high beam and low beam is to illuminate the road ahead of the vehicle. The difference is that one illuminates a shorter distance, and the other illuminates a longer distance. Under normal circumstances, the low beam illuminates a distance of about 30-40 meters. 3. Adjust the light intensity based on the distance of the filament: The high beam is focused, emitting light in parallel, which is more concentrated and brighter, allowing it to illuminate distant and very high objects. The low beam is focused beyond 1 to 2 times the focal point, emitting light in a divergent state, which can illuminate a larger area of nearby objects.
