It's all about changing the bulbs properly

You have no choice but to change the bulb, because without both lights in the dark, you will become completely lost. If it is not a story like the one we have cited, in cities and towns the light on the vehicle is even more important because it means safety. If you have only one vehicle light, you may be less visible to vehicles in the opposite direction or those behind you, depending on whether you have a headlight or a rear light, and other road users may also be considered to be a motorcyclist, not a car. And imagine that everything is possible just because one light does not work for you. Therefore, it is best to stand in the right place along the way and change the light bulb.

For some, it was a cat's cough, and for others, it was something more like high physics than just the manual, mechanical part of the job. Namely, some vehicles have bulbs that are difficult to access on their headlights and taillights, so we actually need to have a lot of experience in order to be able to replace the bulb. Therefore, the best advice we can give you is the following - learn how to change the light bulb on your vehicle when you do not need it, ie while your vehicle is parked in the garage or yard. This is the only way to change the light bulb when needed.

For starters, make sure you have a spare bulb in the box in your trunk. It is usually a part of the obligatory equipment for the car, but it is not bad to check the condition from time to time. It is always good to buy new light bulbs and have them in preparation because we never know when we will need them. Also, it is good to have more bulbs for a certain light on the car because it can happen that the new bulb does not work so that we can replace it with another one. In addition, strictly adhere to the model and intensity of the bulb for your type of car. Unfortunately, it often happens on our roads that the owners put inappropriate light bulbs, so in the end we get too strong lights that greatly irritate other drivers.

Then check how to get to the bulbs. Some vehicles have different light bulb access systems. For example, with some there is only a narrow opening, so you actually need to have a very narrow and small hand to remove the bulb and put a new one. In some it can be taken off glass so reckon you will need the right screwdrivers for this job. However, every car model has its own somewhat specific way of changing the light bulb, so it is certainly a good idea to get familiar with it beforehand so that there are no surprises along the way when you least need it.

When installing the bulb, make sure that it is sufficiently clamped, and also that it is not clamped too tightly to avoid cracking or other damage. The right measure is the best answer to this.

Be prepared that the light bulb on some cars is the easiest to reach in a squatting position, so it is also something to consider. Some bulbs also have a rubber shield that needs to be removed in order to access the bulb at all. Also, with some brands of vehicles, it is necessary to turn the wheel to the left or right, considering which headlight changes, all in order to access the bulb more easily.

But if it doesn't work out or you're a little scared of these stories, then there is a solution. In the worst case, you can go to your car mechanic who will change your light bulb and it won't charge you much, often it won't charge you anything. And happy everyone!
