It's obvious that you need high-intensity car headlights for proper visibility while driving at night. So, what keeps you from sticking with low-intensity, dull car bulbs? Automakers believe that LED car headlights are the need of the moment, and their use is increasing.
Almost all aftermarket headlight bulbs are labeled Plug and Play. The trouble is, sometimes there are things that are out of anyone's control. Your headlight may not be deep enough, there may be a CANBus error, or you may need a specific light socket in order to install the upgrade bulb.
Most common issues when upgrading to LED:
1. The bulb is not suitable
Usually, this means you ordered the wrong bulb. It could be that the data for your vehicle in our car light bulb finder is wrong, or you ordered the wrong light bulb by mistake.
2. The bulb fits but is loose in the bulb holder
This is where you need to replace the bulb holder or install an adapter to the bulb so that it fits properly.
3. One LED light is off
This can be checked/fixed by changing the polarization between the power supply and the bulb. This is common on Japanese vehicles and can be fixed by reversing the connection and plugging it back in.
4. Both LED lights are off
First, check the polarization. If you've done this and nothing happens, there may be a power issue. This is usually due to your vehicle's battery not providing enough charge. It is recommended that you test (or replace) the battery, if the problem persists then we need to investigate further.
5. Dashboard displays a warning message
This would be a CANBus problem. Fortunately, the CANBus warning can be resolved by connecting an LED resistor kit.
6. LED fan prevents my dust cover from closing
If your LED bulbs are preventing the dust cover from closing, there are custom dust covers that can be reduced in size. They are lightweight and prevent any moisture from entering your headlights.
