How To Tell You Need New Lights

If your headlights seem less bright than they once were, or if they have started to blink on or off, your headlights may be near the end of their life and in need of replacement. If your headlights have begun emitting a foggy glow instead of clear, direct beams of light, that’s another sign that replacement may be in order.

High beams that don’t work even if the regular beams do, and headlights that consistently blow fuses are also warning signs to watch for. Scheduling a service appointment at Fury Waconia will allow us to diagnose the problem and replace those lights if needed, before they burn out completely.

What To Expect When Scheduling Headlight Service

During your headlight service appointment, one of our factory-trained technicians at Fury Waconia will inspect your vehicle and determine the problem. In many cases, a simple headlight replacement is all that is needed. In some other cases, faulty wiring or some other electrical issue may also be a factor. We’ll perform the appropriate repair and get you back behind the wheel in no time.

If your vehicle needs new lights, we usually recommend having both lights replaced at the same time. Headlights are generally installed in pairs, and if one light goes out, the other is usually not far behind. Having both addressed during the same appointment will save you a trip back to our service department.

How To Maintain Your New Lights

Most standard headlights last for about five years, but your lights will still need regular maintenance checks. Your headlights can get knocked out of alignment as your vehicle is driven, and the plastic lenses that cover your headlamps can be damaged when rocks and other debris are kicked up from the road.

Our service department at Fury Waconia will check out the headlights on your vehicle as part of routine tune-ups, but you may also want to get in the habit of visually inspecting your lights and looking for any damage. Our service department makes it easy and convenient to maintain your headlights and other parts of your car. We offer a comfortable waiting room and courtesy transportation for customers within a six-mile pick-up area who are having service work done. When you’re ready to schedule your next service appointment, call Fury Waconia.
