See the Light (Bulb Replacement)
December 14, 2025
When you notice one of your headlights has gone out, it’s important for the safe operation of your vehicle to get it changed and working again. Not only is replacing a headlight important for your ability to see in the dark, but it’s also vital that it be lighting your way and aimed correctly so oncoming drivers aren’t blinded.
Changing a headlight used to be something a driver might try to do themselves. But that was back when headlights were standard sizes and fairly easy to access on your vehicle. That has all changed with new technology and designs in today’s vehicles. Most lamps are now LEDs, and there are different sizes, intensities, and shapes in different vehicles. Accessing those bulbs has also grown extremely difficult in some cases, and we recommend you have one of our professional technicians do it for you.
It's just as important that your brake lights and side marker lights work, too, as they contribute to the safe operation and visibility of your vehicle. A technician will check to see what is causing a light not to illuminate, which could be a bulb, but also could be a problem with the electrical system in that bulb’s circuit.
Having all your lights working is not only a matter of convenience, but a matter of safety too. So don’t be in the dark when you don’t have to be. Let our technicians light up your life a little by making sure all your bulbs are working right.
