What kind of light bulbs are in the headlights of the VAZ 2114 and other lighting devices?


Types of lighting fixtures

For installation in the headlights of the VAZ 2114, double-filament lamps with an H4 socket are used, the power of which is 60/55 W. They perform simultaneously the functions of high and low beam. This allows you to reduce the size of the headlights and reduce heat. However, such versatility also has negative sides. If one thread burns out, the other can still work. But, since it is impossible to drive without low or high beams, you have to change a partially working lamp. At the same time, headlight bulbs are always installed in pairs to obtain the same glow mode on the left and right sides. It turns out that because of one burnt-out filament, you will have to change two lamps, which is uneconomical.

Halogen lamps are installed at the manufacturer's factory. This is a modification of conventional incandescent lamps, the bulbs of which contain pairs of halogens - iodine and bromine. This makes it possible to increase the heating of the coil and increase the brightness of the glow. However, the temperature of the flask, which has to be made of quartz glass, also increases.

In addition to halogen lamps, the following are installed in the headlights of a VAZ 2114 car:

  • incandescent lamps. They are cheap, but dull and short-lived. Currently practically not used;
  • xenon lamps. They have increased brightness because the plasma arc glows. They do not have filaments, therefore they are more resistant to stress. The disadvantage of xenon is the need to use an ignition unit, which takes up extra space;
  • LEDs. These are relatively new lamps that have managed to win the preference of most car enthusiasts. They are safe, the supply voltage is only 12 V. The service life is up to 50,000 hours (halogen - up to 2000). Practically do not heat up. The disadvantage is the directional emission of the light flux. While halogen or xenon samples shine evenly in all directions, LED lamps emit in one direction, so several crystals mounted on a cylindrical base are used at once. In addition, the LEDs are equipped with diffusion lenses that evenly distribute the flow in all directions.

Tuning VAZ 2109

There are now quite a lot of different parts appearing on the auto parts market for tuning and modification of cars, including the VAZ 2109. In this article we will focus on installing LEDs instead of side light bulbs on our car. I would like to immediately warn readers that all colors other than white and yellow in the car’s headlights are regarded by the traffic inspectors as a gross violation of current norms and rules, so I warn you against installing LEDs of other colors in the dimensions, since almost all LEDs are available for sale colors of the rainbow. Be smart in your choice.

This is what the required LEDs look like:

We simply replace the standard lamp in the head marker lights of the VAZ 2109 with this part. Photo for comparison with the standard lamps in the dimensions:

This is what the final result of this modification looks like:

Now about the benefits of this modification. LEDs consume much less energy compared to standard incandescent bulbs used in cars. That is, by introducing this modification you make life easier for your battery. Plus a visual effect a la xenon. And it just looks good.

I also cannot help but note the negative aspects. So, if your car has a function for monitoring the serviceability of side light lamps and brake lights (injector, high panel), the burnt-out lamp indicator will always remind the owner of the malfunction. The fact is that the LED consumes much less current than an incandescent lamp, and the lamp health monitoring relay (RLIL), having detected too low a current in the lamp power circuit, informs the driver about the breakage of the incandescent lamp filament by igniting the corresponding lamp on the instrument panel, or by beeping the on-board control systems (BSK) on cars with Europanel.

Types of headlights

The headlight unit on a VAZ can have two design options:

  • Bosch (BOSH);
  • Kirzhach.

Outwardly they are very similar. Experts distinguish them by small details - the shape of the blender arches or the rotation diffuser. Kirzhach has a long, narrow reflector with a partition and no top wall. Bosch has walls on all sides, and the reflector is short. For an inexperienced person, it is easier to distinguish these designs by the shape of the plug on the back of the headlamp - Bosch products have one and are made in the form of an oval. These subtleties are not accessible to everyone, but only to experienced car enthusiasts.

Important! They have no fundamental difference in design, but installing one instead of the other will not work. Therefore, you should know which headlights will fit the body of a given car, so as not to find yourself in a difficult situation when purchasing. In addition, Kirzhach headlights are more difficult to disassemble than Bosch.

There are also Chinese analogues of headlight units for the VAZ 2114. They can have any shape, since they are not subject to general standards. Purchasing such products is a big risk. You can, with equal probability, get suitable headlights, or have lighting fixtures that do not match the shape of the sockets.

What and how can you change the standard lights?

The easiest way is to change the appearance of your car - replacing the light fixtures with more original ones. The range of flashlights for the VAZ 2114, of course, is not particularly wide, but there is plenty to choose from. And the simple way is because all tuning comes down to “removing the standard ones, installing the purchased ones.” Let's wander around the shops and see what we can find for our VAZ 2114.

Osvar flashlights are the most popular option among car enthusiasts. They are relatively inexpensive and finding them is not a problem. The only thing is that the manufacturer uses ordinary light bulbs in it, but if desired, you can replace them with LED ones yourself. Although for most car owners this is not relevant.

We'll finish our shopping trip here, although there are still many miracles there. Just watch a short video about a flashlight with red turn signals and move on to the next point.

How to remove tail lights

It's time to figure out how to remove the stock lights to install new ones. To work, you will need an 8 socket wrench with an extension and a Phillips screwdriver. We open the trunk door, use a Phillips screwdriver to dismantle part of the upholstery so that, by bending it, you can gain access to the entire rear part of the lamp.


The upholstery is attached to the body using self-tapping screws

We find 4 nuts around the perimeter of the light fixture and unscrew them with a wrench


The lamp is secured with four nuts

Carefully remove the connector by pulling it towards the central axle of the car. We don’t swing it, we just pull it, trying not to twist it!


Removing the power supply

Pull the light from the outside of the car toward you and remove it.


Now the lamp can be removed

We install the new light fixture in the reverse order.

Manufacturers of lamps for VAZ 2114

Since lamps with an H4 socket are used in headlights of many models from different manufacturers, all manufacturers of car lamps produce such lamps. Among them are the following companies:

  1. A world-famous Dutch company, known for its low prices and good quality products;
  2. A German company with a long history and rich technological experience;
  3. Narva. This is another manufacturer from Germany, known for the quality and durability of its products;
  4. Bosh. Another German company that does not need any special introduction;
  5. Company based in Hong Kong and Germany. Produces a wide range of reliable lighting equipment.

The best lamps for VAZ 2114

Let's consider which low beam bulb can be used for installation in the headlights of a VAZ 2114 car:

  • Bosh A 12-60+55 VAZ H4 plus 60;
  • Osram H4 Night Breaker Unlimited +110%;
  • General Electric H4 12V 60/55W P43t GE;
  • Philips H4 3700K X-treme Vision +130%;
  • Koito WhiteBeam III Premium 4500K.

This list is far from complete, however, a simple listing does not make sense. It is important to consider that all lamp models have their own purpose and specificity. When purchasing, you need to select samples for existing conditions and loads.

Installation methods

There are several options to equip your car with a fog light system. The choice depends on your personal preferences and capabilities.

The standard PTF kit includes several elements:

  • Headlights;
  • Light bulbs;
  • Switching relay;
  • Set of wires;
  • Connection diagram;
  • Button to turn on/off PTF.

When choosing a set, pay attention to the fact that the headlights match the shape of the glasses, that is, the facing elements

Today, for VAZ 2114 owners who want to install fog lights, it is recommended to choose rectangular kits from the Kirzhach company. It is used for factory installation of PTF on expensive versions of the model.

Main conclusions

The VAZ 2114 headlights have halogen lamps with an H4 socket by default. These are two-strand designs in which one thread is responsible for the high beam and the other for the low beam. In addition to halogen, the following can be used:

  • incandescent lamps;
  • xenon;
  • LED bulbs.

Most users prefer LEDs, but according to the rules it is necessary to use standard halogen designs. Express your thoughts about lamps for the VAZ 2114 in the comments.

Below we talk about what kind of light bulbs are in the headlights of the VAZ 2114, as well as in all other lighting fixtures of this car. In addition, the article provides expert advice on choosing light bulbs.

Process Features

To ensure that the process of dismantling and replacing the lighting component is successful, make sure that there is no condensation in the reflector unit. If you do find moisture in the block, clean the drainage channel, which you can find near the turn signal mount (on the left or right of the car). You can give a few more tips to motorists:

  • take into account the interval from the moment the vehicle's lighting system is turned off. Do not start work immediately after turning off the lighting system, as this may cause burns;
  • Whatever lamp you replace (xenon or halogen), wear protective gloves;
  • Do not replace lighting elements with overly powerful ones, as they can lead to failure of the lighting device.

Which light bulbs are better to choose?

  • Osram C ool B lue B oost is a high-quality lamp from a German manufacturer. Emits white light, which has a positive effect on visibility in low visibility conditions. The brightness indicators of the model are at a high level. Lighting element power 100/90 W. The service life ranges from 120 to 400 hours of continuous operation. The price of the product differs depending on the region and averages 1100-1200 Russian rubles .
  • Philips Blue V ision Ultra . _ _ The power of the lighting element is 60/50 W. The model is distinguished by high brightness. Cold white light allows you to see the road situation regardless of the level of illumination. The cost of two lamps in this series is 1400 - 1500 Russian rubles .
  • IPF T itan W hite are high-quality models from the Japanese manufacturer. A distinctive feature of the product is its high luminous characteristics and long service life. The lamps provide high-quality illumination of the road surface regardless of weather conditions. Power is 55 W. The cost of a product from a Japanese manufacturer averages 2,200 rubles .

The owner independently decides which bulbs in the VAZ 2114 headlights he needs. In addition to the above, Bosch products have proven themselves well. When choosing, you should take into account the type of base; we remind you that for VAZ 2114 cars it is marked H4.

PTF Kirzhach light bulb base

Depending on the year of manufacture, different types of lamp bases were installed on the “luxury” versions of the fourteenth VAZ model. In addition to caps from foreign manufacturers, caps from PTF are often found in the PTF case.


The photo above shows the H11 format socket, which is installed in “foglights”. It makes no sense to choose bulbs for VAZ 2114 fog lights without understanding which base is used in the housing, because they are not interchangeable. Only H11 is used, while on modified versions of machines, H3 format sockets are often found.


Bulbs for VAZ 2114 fog lights of this format produce a brighter color, but H11 is more common, because do not blind oncoming cars. A car lamp for “four” is available for sale in several versions:

  • Halogen (standard with a yellowish tint);
  • LED (bright elements with white light). Due to low heating they are more durable;
  • Xenon. Effective and bright, but require compliance with installation instructions. If used incorrectly, it blinds oncoming cars. Service life is about three years.

Also, for improper use of xenon, inspectors may issue an order to eliminate the violation.

Replacing headlight bulbs

  • Disconnect the on-board power supply. To do this, you need to disconnect the negative terminal from the battery.
  • Open the engine compartment.
  • Unscrew the two fasteners from the back of the headlight.
  • Remove the protective cover.
  • Disconnect the electrical connector.
  • Unclip the spring securing the lighting element to the seat.
  • Remove the lamp.

Assembly is carried out in reverse order. When installing a halogen lamp, do not touch the glass bulb of the product with your hands.

After the new part is installed, you need to connect the negative terminal to the battery and check the functionality of the headlight.

Types of light bulbs in other lighting fixtures

  • Fog lights . The type of base depends on what type of fog lights are installed on the car. This can be a H3, H4 base, but most often the H base is used. Before purchasing, it is better to dismantle the lamp to determine the type of base.
  • Front side lights . Lamps with T4W . To install, you need to lower the base into the socket and turn it clockwise until it stops.
  • Rear marker lights . Lighting element P21W .
  • Turn signals . The front and rear lights are equipped with P21W , the side ones - T4W .
  • Brake lights , reverse . The element used is P21W .

Depending on the installation location, the type of lamp differs. The most powerful ones are installed in the headlights. This design allows you to safely operate the car in low visibility conditions. To determine which bulbs are in the headlights of a VAZ 2114, you need to remove them from the car, or use this manual.

The version about every fifth accident, due to poor visibility of the road, has the right to live.

Lada 2114 Musician in black Logbook LED lights, taillights, room lighting

It’s clear from the title that I replaced some of the light bulbs with LED ones.
Now, in order: Front dimensions I bought light bulbs from MTF (Korea). Base W5W, 12V, 1W. It is written on the box: bipolar, with built-in stabilizer, illumination angle 240 degrees, light 5500K.

I liked the light, maybe not the brightest, but the light is beautiful. We'll see how long these bulbs last.

Tail lights The only changes to the tail lights were the dimensions, stops and reverse. I did not touch the turn signals and rear fog lights. I bought not the cheapest diode light bulbs from an unknown manufacturer with the required base. The diodes shine in all directions. There are white diodes in reverse, and red diodes in the dimensions and stops. The seller said that if you put white ones in the feet, for example, the light will not be red, but with a pink tint. In the end, I listened to him and took the red diodes. I also cut out and stuck pieces of vibration insulation with the foil facing outward so that the light would be reflected and shine brighter. I lubricated all the contacts of the light bulbs and on the board with silicone grease so that they would not oxidize for as long as possible. After all, with such flashlights this is a disease, but when you lubricate it there are no problems. As a result, the light of the dimensions and stops did not become brighter. It became moderately bright, slightly muted, and a little matte or something. The light, as the light bulb seller said, is a rich red color. You can hardly see much of a difference, but the light is subdued and shines in a rich red, which I like. It's a shame the photo camera can't handle that shade. The stops used to be a little late due to the diodes on the spoiler, but now everything is as it should be. In general, you don’t see much of a difference, but the advantages are that the light is a little more interesting, and the stops light up faster. In reverse, the light bulbs were not at all impressive. Just as nothing was illuminated before, these diodes do not illuminate anything either. Only the light became not yellow, but more beautifully white and blue. I don’t know why it’s blue.

Room lighting From what was left in the store of 36mm size, I had to buy expensive ones with decoys and six diodes. The seller said they are not the brightest. The bulbs fit right in because of their square shape, but that’s even a plus, they fit snugly. After turning on the light I was pleased. Pure white, the brightness is just what you need, I don’t think it’s necessary to be brighter. Overall, I was very pleased with them. Let's see how long they last.

Which modification is better?

H4 halogen lamps installed on the VAZ-2114 are divided into:

  1. Standard.
  2. Enhanced light beam.
  3. Improved visual overview.
  4. All-weather.
  5. Increased power.

They are two incandescent filaments for low and high beam lighting. Lamps with a power of 60/55W are considered optimal among them .

Standard

Standard H4 lamp

Such lamps are mounted on every car of this VAZ model.

High beam lamp

High light flux lamp +30%

They are designated as +30%, 50% and so on. In addition to consuming “their” 55W and percent, they produce brighter light . But the duration of their operation is not long, although the price is more expensive.

Improved visual overview

Illuminated with white light familiar to the eye. Consuming the usual 55 W, they illuminate brighter, despite the bluish tint of the bulb.

They provide an excellent background light on snowy and dry roads. On a wet road it is better to use yellow fog lights. Doesn't blind oncoming cars. The service life of these does not differ from standard ones, despite the inflated price . Manufacturers prefer lamps with a yellow or bluish tint.

All weather

All-weather yellow lamp

The lamps are specially coated with a yellowish tint, which allows the light to achieve the contrast of the area in bad weather, especially cloudy (foggy). Yellow light has less reflection.

Increased power

They are in demand among owners who do not particularly know the “subject of the dispute.”

The manufacturer does not equip the VAZ-2114 with powerful lamps and does not recommend them, since this is associated with mandatory overheating and melting of wires, contacts, and headlight reflectors.

High-power lamps lead to consequences such as blinding an oncoming car and causing an accident.

Tuning headlights

The headlights on the VAZ 2114 can be easily tuned. The improvement of the headlights is manifested in the following modifications:

  • The headlight reflector is changed. The light beam is formed by a reflector, and the newer and better the coating, the brighter and more accurate it will be. To replace the headlight reflector, you must remove the headlight itself from the car. Then the glass is removed using a stationery knife. This must be done very carefully, since the sealant connecting the glass to the body is very dense, and the glass may burst. Next, the reflector is replaced with a new one. During assembly, a thick layer of transparent silicone sealant is applied to the edge of the glass, which is pressed against the body. If there are gaps when applying the sealant, the headlight will fog up from the inside. This will cause light scattering and rapid burnout of incandescent lamps.
  • Installation of lenses. Instead of the standard headlight reflector 2114, tuning is carried out by installing lenses. This is the best option for improving the brightness and clarity of lighting. The fact is that the lens creates a clear, directional beam, and does not scatter the light, as a standard reflector does. Accordingly, with proper adjustment, headlights with lenses will illuminate the night road well and will not blind drivers of oncoming cars. However, it is not recommended to carry out such tuning yourself, since it is quite difficult to calibrate the headlights. Contact the service.
  • "Angel Eyes". A good replacement for standard side lights is the installation of so-called “angel eyes”. They are an LED strip that goes around the edge of the lens. This fashion began with the BMW brand and has deeply entered the life of optics tuning. This modification will not affect the level of the head light in any way, but will give the optics an original look. Also, “angel eyes” act as daytime running lights. Therefore, you can avoid using low beams during the day, which will have a positive effect on the life of the generator and incandescent lamps. RETROFIT.PRO offers service for all types of automotive lighting devices.
  • Installation of xenon lamps. This modification significantly improves head lighting. But there are a number of disadvantages here. The installation of non-standard xenon is limited by the legislation of the Russian Federation, since such headlights blind drivers of oncoming cars and can provoke an accident. Therefore, it is necessary to comply with all conditions for installing xenon lamps. They include installing lenses, replacing corrugated glass with smooth glass, installing headlight washers and registering xenon in the vehicle title. You can buy a ready-made set of tuning headlights 2114 for installing xenon. This modification will require high-quality headlight adjustment.
  • Installation of LED lamps. LED lamps, unlike xenon, do not require additional modifications. But they are different. Simple lamps, similar to halogen ones, will give a negative effect, but lamps with ignition units and additional radiators will shine no worse than xenon. They also require careful headlight adjustment.

The headlights on all models of the Samara-2 line are the same. If you don’t want to make modifications yourself, then you can buy headlight tuning for VAZ 2113, 2114 and 2115.

Selecting a lamp for a VAZ-2114 by manufacturer and brand

Lamp type - H4. One lamp combines both high and low beam.

Based on the two components of the headlight design, the lamp is selected at the discretion of the driver. The essence of the H4 lamp, consisting of two filaments, has not changed. A halogen incandescent lamp differs in that the bulb is saturated with bromine or iodine vapor.

The flask is made of quartz glass. This increases the service life and the maximum temperature of the filament. At the same time, the brightness of the headlights increases, which is the most attractive factor in the popularity of the product.

The range of halogen H4 lamps is focused on high-quality lighting, among which lamps with increased light output are distinguished.

In accordance with European safety requirements, the following products meet the best performance indicators:

OSRAM COOL BLUE INTENCE , no deviations in electrical energy consumption were noted during testing. Low and high beams comply with GOST. Does not blind drivers of oncoming or passing traffic.

In low beam mode, due to the use of a power of 80 W, superiority remained with IPF SUPERDEAM , but at a long distance the illumination was only 70 meters.

NARVA H4 RANGE POWER left great confidence with excellent results in both modes.

KOITO WHITE lamp from a Japanese manufacturer, showing high-quality light output, does not affect the technical condition of the wiring or other elements of the headlight. Coupled with excellent luminous flux contours, it provides low and high beam illumination areas. The functionality extends to coverage angle and shadow boundary of the path. The protection factor against glare of oncoming cars is also a significant advantage of the device.

OSRAM COOL BLUE INTENCE lamps IPF SUPERDEAM lamps NARVA H4 RANGE POWER lamps KOITO WHITE lamps

This lamp comparison reveals the best models from Japanese H4 lamp manufacturers.

Types of lamps

Xenon

Gas discharge xenon lamps

Lamps equipped with xenon are three times brighter than conventional ones . They last ten times longer. Efficient in power consumption, almost two times, which allows the generator to operate in a gentle mode, preserving the engine life. A serious drawback is the inability of xenon to fit into a circuit designed for halogen lamps.

Halogen

Advantages : increased light output, choice of color, long service life, all-encompassing visibility of the road with coverage of the side of the road.

Disadvantages - high heating temperature of the bulb, poor quality of the lamp, inefficient energy consumption, the need for additional service.

Video about choosing lamps

Content

Light on the road means comfort, visibility, safety of the driver, passengers and other road users. At the same time, the very quality of the light characteristics of the car’s front lights depends on two factors of the lighting unit: the diffuser and the reflector. Therefore, the light bulbs on the VAZ 2114 must be of high quality, regardless of the year of production of your particular car.

It is also worth mentioning the aesthetics of the glow of the “eyes” of your car, because this is the first thing that people see when they meet your car for the first time at night. Let's figure out how to choose the right “mirror of the soul” of the iron horse, what nuances you should know about.

Bulbs in the headlights of a VAZ 2114

WORTH KNOWING! Lamps on the VAZ 2114 of the latest series are installed from BOSCH, which gives an incomparable quality of visibility on the road at night compared to earlier domestic analogues.

Replacing the low beam lamp

I hope that you have already chosen and bought what you are going to change. Therefore, let's understand the features of replacing the low beam bulb of a VAZ 2114.

We will need:

  • cotton gloves or a piece of clean cloth;
  • lamp H4;
  • screwdriver and pliers (just in case).

Replacing a lamp on a VAZ 2114 is quite simple. We need:

  • turn off the ignition;
  • open the hood and disconnect the battery terminals.

Next, the process of replacing the low/high beam lamp on Kirzhach and Bosch headlights is slightly different. If you have Bosch headlights, then:

  1. We examine the headlight from the back and see that it is covered with a round casing. We turn the casing counterclockwise, its fastening resembles a bayonet mount.
  2. Remove the terminal block from the H4 bulb.
  3. We compress the antennae of the locking spring and disengage the lock.
  4. We remove and change the lamp.

Replacing a lamp in a BOSCH VAZ 2114 headlight

Be careful not to touch the bulb of a new halogen lamp with your hands. The oil from your hands will cause it to fail, so wear gloves when working. Try not to touch the lamp and parts of the engine compartment.

The main and only difference between the Kirzhach headlight is the mounting and shape of the rear shield. It is not round, but rectangular; therefore, to remove it, you do not need to turn it counterclockwise, but unscrew the fastening screws (indicated by number 3 in the figure). This can be done by hand, and if it doesn’t work, then pliers or a screwdriver will help us.

Farah Kirzhach: rear view

After assembling the headlight and connecting the battery to the vehicle's on-board network, you can begin operating your car with new high/low beam bulbs. Changing the low beam bulb on a VAZ 2114 turned out to be as easy as shelling pears! Have a nice trip, share in the comments what lamps you use!

Types of lighting fixtures

There is an opinion among police officers that every fifth road accident occurs due to the fault of incorrectly selected or faulty lighting devices, so a reasonable question arises: “What are they?”

Standard bulbs VAZ 2114

There are two types of lamps, one of which has subtypes:

  • xenon – the popularity of “xenon” and “bi-xenon” and other buzzwords, which, in essence, call one type of lamp, appeared for a reason, because this lighting device has a whole bunch of positive aspects against just one drawback. On the negative side, they note that the VAZ 2114 network is designed for halogen lights, and difficulties often arise with the installation of xenon. If you solve this problem, you will get: a double reduction in energy consumption, triple light, gentle load on the generator and engine, and almost ten times the service life in comparison with halogen analogues;

Xenon bulbs VAZ 2114

  • halogen - are a classic solution, have several advantages over their xenon counterpart, but do not solve the main tasks assigned to lighting devices. Among the advantages, they usually note the ability to configure a passive view of the roadside, which is not essential for new European cars with intelligently customizable headlights, but is still important for the VAZ 2114, and the ability to choose the color of the headlights. They have many more disadvantages than “xenon lights”: high energy consumption, regular maintenance work, excessive heat transfer during operation.

Halogen bulb VAZ 2114

Types of headlights

If the xenon headlight bulbs of the VAZ 2114 only lead to an installation problem, then when buying halogen ones, the car enthusiast also faces the problem of choice, because there are several types:

  1. Standard - in the modern configuration of the VAZ 2114 it is BOSCH with a power range of 60/55W. On previous versions of the car, the power was also in this range, but the car was equipped with domestic manufacturers, which noticeably affected the quality of the headlights.

Standard

  1. Amplified ones are more expensive than classic lamps and are marked +30 (50, etc.)%. Such headlights operate approximately the same percentage less, cost the same percentage more, and consume energy in the appropriate mode.

Amplified lamp

  1. Improved visibility – the bulb of these illuminators has a slight blue tint. While consumption and heating remain normal, the light is brighter, and visibility on dry or snowy roads is better and further. Such headlights do not blind oncoming car owners, but without high-quality fog lights they are unable to illuminate the road in rainy weather.
  2. All-weather - differ from standard ones by the presence of a yellow coating on the light source. In terms of technical characteristics, they are no different from them, but they help create a visual contrast in the contours of objects, especially when the weather is bad outside.

All weather lamp

  1. Increased power - these headlights are a product of the market, which generated demand, and not an objective necessity. More powerful lamps are the prerogative of young people who do not take into account possible road problems associated with the consequences of such “tuning”.

IMPORTANT! The manufacturer directly declares a ban on the installation of heavy-duty halogen lights, because they blind oncoming drivers and lead to a lot of accidents, both outside the city and within its boundaries.

If the problem is in the relay and it needs to be replaced, will the diodes work or will they flash again in a month? is there any info?

Sorry. There is not. I didn't install them again... I installed orange from the repeater

Same problem, I installed the diodes, after a month the right one started blinking, I thought the diode had gone bad, I bought a new one and installed it, now the left one is blinking.

Yesterday the left front marker went out (the lamp is intact), but I need to go to the maintenance urgently! I connected the wires from the right block - now both do not light, I removed the wires that I connected, still both do not light. The fronts are intact, the lamps too. I measured it with a multimeter - there is no voltage on the socket and there is no voltage on the block either. The middle one is on, the rear lights are on. I feel the same sadness, I’ll try to change this relay on Monday.

Yes, relyushka is a common problem.

Yes, she was
