Your Nissan's fog lights help you navigate difficult road conditions by illuminating the curves and road patterns ahead. When one or both of them becomes dim or dysfunctional, it may compromise your ability to see what's in front of you.
Compared to headlights, fog lights are designed to slice through rather than reflect visibility-lowering conditions like dust, rain, and fog. Due to their unique design, Nissan fog lights illuminate a wider but shorter range than your typical headlights, which explains why they should be used to supplement rather than replace headlights.
Your Fog Light (Right) can act up due to underlying problems in the Electrical System, which can make the lights flicker, fade, or not start at all. On the other hand, the bulb itself can also burn out completely with age or crack due to impact or electric problems.
Typically, fog lights can run for up to 30,000 hours prior to requiring a replacement.
But, if you forget to turn yours off or have an undiagnosed electrical issue, the lights in your Nissan may have to be replaced more frequently. If your Fog Light (Right) is flickering or not working at all, order a genuine Nissan Fog Light (Right) for optimum fitment and performance.
Performing a Fog Light (Right) replacement at home is on the easier side of DIY car repair. Typically, the process involves popping the hood and undoing the electrical connections between the fog light and the rest of the system. Once disconnected, loosen and remove your Fog Light (Right) by turning it counterclockwise. Then, screw the replacement Fog Light (Right) right back in its place, and restore all the electrical connections to their original ballast.
While it seems straightforward, don't forget to check your Nissan's manual, turn the car off, and let the engine cool down before attempting any at-home repairs. Replacing a Nissan Fog Light (Right) is meant to help you see more clearly on the road, but you shouldn't let your guard down when under-the-hood!
