Can a halogen light bulb be replaced on a Kia Soul?
If the headlight aiming adjustment is necessary after the headlight assembly is reinstalled, consult an authorized Kia dealer. Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas that will produce flying pieces of glass if broken. Always handle them carefully, and avoid scratches and abrasions. If the bulbs are lit, avoid contact with liquids.
Do you need to replace both high and low beams?
Some vehicles use a single bulb for both high and low beams while others do not. If the high beam on the same side is also out, it may be one bulb. You do not need to purchase specific bulbs for each side, but identifying which is the blown out bulb will help you to replace it without having to start the vehicle again.
What causes a low beam light to burn out?
IIRC, there’s a wiring issue that can cause low beams to burn out quickly by giving them too much power. I think it tends to affect the driver side bulbs more than passenger as well.
What to do if you drop a low beam light bulb?
The oil on your hands can compromise the glass of the bulb, reducing its lifespan. Protect your bulb from this by wearing gloves or using a tissue any time you come into contact with the glass of the new low beam headlight bulb. Be careful not to drop the bulb as you remove it from the package.
