The standard lights are quite good enough if the reflectors and lens are really shiny and not partially rusted. Large bulbs run the risk of melting the plastic reflectors costing new head lights. Adjusting the head lights to correct beam height will also help. You can use relays in the system. Disconnect the wires to the back of the bulbs and attach then to the trigger pins of the relay (4 relays-2 high beam L+R and 2LBeam L+R). Run fused power wires from the battery to the power pin of the relay and out to the beam pin of the bulb. earth the bulbs as normal. The operation works like this You switch on the lights to low beam and the power from the switch energises the relay and drops in the contacts which allows power from the battery ,through the bulb low beam to earth. Switching to high beam energises the relay and allows power from the battery through the relay and out to the high beam part of the bulb through to earth. You have full 12 volts to the lights and reduced current through the light switch. 4 relays --1 each for each light low and 1 each for each light high. jump the wire from each beam position between relays of the same light so that they work off the one wire from the switch

Headlight systems inoperable 1995 Dodge Dakota SLT 3.9L V6 magnum

It may be a wiring issue. If the bulbs were dim that at least shows there was current getting to them. I'm in the UK and I'm not familiar with your vehicle ..

... but, somewhere around the rear brake/tail lights and/or front lights/indicators there should be some sort of earth wire that will attach to either the metal of the light unit, or closeby onto the bodywork.

It may be that you have a poor earth connection.

If you have a length of wire lying around, switch your lights on, place one end of the wire against the bulb body and the other end of the wire against a suitable earthing point. If the bulbs come on/become brighter it points towards a faulty earth. There may be only one earth for both rear lights and one earth for the front lights.

Don't forget to check your battery earth as well.

Why doesnt headlight work on low beam left side?

Bulb may be no good as in headlight bulbs one filament can go leaving only either low beam or high beam operational on one headlight so change the bulb first on that side other than that could be power related

My car headlights are still work but I do not know why it does not have enough 12 volt

Do you mean the voltage is down below 12V? Your headlights may be dim because



- globes are failing, causing a dark film to form inside the glass. Replace them with good name brand globes

- corroded contacts in the globe mounting. Pull the contact housing off and on a few times to scrap the contacts

- low voltage at the contacts. Remove a contact housing, start the engine, turn on the lights, and measure the voltage available at the contacts. It should be 12V or at higher. If not, the battery charging circuit and alternator require inspection.

- poor grounding at the headlight. The bulb circuit may be grounded by a return wire or through the bulb mounting direct to the chassis. Measure the electrical resistance between the metal flange where the bulb sits and the metal chassis. It should be low, about 0.1 - 0.3 ohm

- tarnished headlight reflector, or clouded outer lens. Autozone and similar places sell kits which claim to allow restoration of these. Expect limited success I think

The driver side running lights don't work on my 2007 hyundai elantra. brake light, blinkers and headlights all work and the bulbs are good because they flash when i lock car with the fab. but they don't...

brake lights and blinkers use the sale filament in the bulb
the running light is the other (in a dual filament bulb)
you may have a poor connection or a break inside the bulb base.
test with a known good bulb.
the next place to look is the connector on the light switch and the joint where the running lights split off.

2004 kia spectra-headlights blow

The lights should be able to handle well over 16 volts before blowing. How often do they go out? What brand of bulb a you using. Do your headlights bounce when you drive down the road. Is the connector for the headlights in good shape with no burnt pins. Are you touching the glass of the bulb with your fingers when you install it?

I’m happy to assist further over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/jeremy_d728a59f986299fa

1992 Honda Prelude lights wont focus

Hard to say without looking at it. Usually it is 2 reasons: the bulb is not fitted properly or the headlight itself is dull (yellow). In the second case you just polish the headlight with some car polish until it is clear. Anyway i am sure you fixed it by now....

Poor headlights on rover 75

Yes you can. I bought led headlights for my 1948 fod. They are nice and bright. Before you replace your head lights check to make sure you have a good ground from the battery to the body.

Left headlight is verry poor on light

Well, the easiest thing to do would be to just switch your headlights and see if the right one burns as dim.If it doesnt,then you just need a new bulb.If it does,then you have a ground wire off or touching somewhere by the headlights on the left side probably.Check all your wires going to the lights all the way as far as you can check if so.

Changing headlamps on 2003 bmw 325xi

I am assuming that you have a burned out head light bulb.
1) Open hood.
2) Working in back of headlight assembly, grasp rear of bulb socket (harness connector) and turn counterclockwise 90 degrees. Pull bulb out of headlight assembly.
3) Disconnect harness connector from bulb (gently pry, it's plastic)
4) Installation is reverse of removal. (Do not touch halogen bulb with bare skin-oils from hand will cause bulb to burn out.) Align tabs on bulb base to cutouts on rear of lens assembly. (Note bottom tab is wider than other two) Secure bulb by rotating clockwise 90 degrees.
