The fuse for the low beams is usually in the left section or towards the middle, with the specific number varying by model year—for example, it's around fuse number 32 for the 2015 model. When checking, make sure the engine is off, and use pliers to gently pull out the fuse to see if the filament is broken. If it is, just replace it with a 15-amp fuse. For safety, avoid touching the battery unnecessarily. The location isn't hard to find, but if there are significant model differences, consulting the owner's manual or online diagrams is the most reliable. Headlight issues are common, so address them early to ensure driving safety and avoid getting stranded.
