- Lights the road directly in front of you
- Should be used in tandem with headlights to cut through fog
- Replace when not working as it should
Your Nissan's fog lights help you navigate difficult road conditions by lighting the path directly in front of you. When one or both of them becomes dim or dysfunctional, it can negatively impact your capacity to see the road ahead.
Unlike your headlights, fog lights were created to “cut through” rather than mirroring difficult weather conditions like smog, rain, and snow. Thanks to their specialized construction, Nissan fog lights illuminate a wider but shorter range than standard headlights, which explains why they should be used to supplement rather than replace headlights.
The Fog Lamps in your Nissan can act up due to underlying problems in the electrical system — which may cause lights to flicker, dim, or burn out entirely. On the other hand, the bulbs themselves can burn up with age or crack due to impact or electric problems.
Typically, fog lights can run for up to 30,000 hours before they need to be replaced.
Nevertheless, if you use yours often or have an undiagnosed electrical problem, you may need to replace your fog lights more often. If your Fog Lamps are flickering, or dead — purchase authentic Fog Lamps made by Nissan for the ultimate fit and performance.
Performing a fog light replacement at home can be an easy DIY car service for experienced at-home mechanics. Typically, it involves propping the hood open and unplugging any electrical system components that are anchored to the fog light. Once undone, remove your old Fog Lamps by unscrewing them counterclockwise. Then, turn your new Nissan Fog Lamps clockwise into the fog light assembly, and re-connect the electrical plugs into the ballast. Tighten the new Fog Lamps back into the fog light assembly.
Though replacing your Fog Lamps sounds easy enough, don't forget to check your Nissan's manual, turn the car off, and let the engine cool down before doing anything under-the-hood. Replacing Nissan Fog Lamps is meant to help you see more clearly on the road, but make sure you play it safe in the driveway, first!
