Question 6658

As preventive maintenance, is it advisable to periodically check the vehicle's lighting system?

  1. No, only when it is carrying an overload, because the angle of the light beam could change.
  2. No, except in vehicles equipped with an automatic adjustment system.
  3. Yes, to check that it is properly adjusted and working correctly.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: Yes, to check that it is properly adjusted and working correctly.

Yes. Check regularly that all the lights work and that the headlights are properly aimed, so you can see well without blinding others. Do this even if your car automatically adjusts the headlight height, and do not wait until you are carrying a heavy load to check.
