How To Tell The Signs Of Faulty Lexus Headlights

Your Lexus headlights play a very important role, helping you see and be seen on the road, especially under low light conditions. To this end, it can be said to be an essential safety feature that’s part of your vehicle. Every driver’s worst nightmare is for their headlight bulbs to fail in the middle of the road, particularly when it’s dark out. To prevent this from occurring, you will need to be able to tell the signs of faulty Lexus headlights so that you can get them replaced timely.

We share with you some signs to watch out for in this article!

Lights Flickering On and Off

If you find that your headlights flicker on and off regularly, this could be a sign that they are going to blow soon. At this point, it’s probably safer to get them replaced as you do not want to be met with an unexpected situation while on the road.

Another possible issue flickering lights can point towards is a bad connection or harness. You may want to carry out a thorough inspection to identify the root of the problem.

Dim Lights

Have you noticed that your headlights are dimmer than usual? This is one of the first symptoms that your headlight bulb is approaching the end of its service life. Of course, you can expect a headlight bulb to shine the brightest when it is new, and for this to gradually dim overtime. A dim headlight will not be able to provide the illumination you need, and it is advisable to get it changed at the first opportunity.

Light Is Out Completely

Naturally, this is something you can expect at the end of your headlight bulb’s service life. However, if it has caught you unexpected, this can put you in a highly dangerous situation.

It is recommended to replace both headlight bulbs at once, even if only one has blown. This is because you want both bulbs to be at the same stage of their service life, and if one bulb has blown, it’s usually a sign that the other is not far behind.

One Bulb is Malfunctioning

Even if you have one functioning headlight and one that is acting a little strange, the best solution would be to get both changed at the same time. Uneven headlights can cause you to have better illumination on one side of the road, which does not give you a complete picture of what’s ahead, behind and around you.
