Keeping Your Vehicle Lights On

What do I do when a light on my vehicle goes out?

When a light on your vehicle goes out, it can be frustrating and a bit scary, especially if you are driving at night or in gloomy conditions. If you ever find yourself with limited light and want to check to see if a light is burnt out, the first thing you need to do is identify which light is the problem. You can do this by turning on your headlights and getting out of your car to see which one is not working. If it is a brake light, you will want to have someone pressing the brake pedal while you check the lights.

Periodically, it is a good idea to check all of your car’s lights to ensure they are working properly. This can help you to avoid not realizing a light is out and getting pulled over by the police or into an accident. If you notice a light is starting to dim, it is always better to change it sooner rather than later.

A burnt-out bulb is an easy fix. You can schedule an appointment at Joe Holland Chevrolet’s certified service center so you know that your Chevrolet’s lights are being properly replaced.

Can I change the lights on my vehicle myself?

If you are comfortable changing your own light, you can, but if you are not comfortable working on your own car, it is best to take your vehicle to a professional to ensure the job gets done properly. Sometimes, the issue may be more than just a burnt-out bulb. If changing it does not fix the problem, there is a possibility that there is a problem with the fuse or the wiring, which should definitely be inspected at a certified service center.
