What do headlight bulbs do?
Headlight bulbs are responsible for illuminating your vehicle’s headlights. Your headlights, located on the front of your car, are designed to give you maximum visibility while driving. They light the road in front of you at night, and can be used to improve visibility during adverse weather conditions. Just as importantly, headlights make your vehicle visible to oncoming traffic, making them a vital safety feature that must be properly maintained.
Peugeot
Peugeot is a French automotive manufacturer, initially founded in 1810 as a manufacturer of coffee and bicycles that went on to build internal combustion engine cars from 1890.
How popular is Peugeot in the United Kingdom?
With possibly its strongest model line-up in years, Peugeot is looking to turn around its current dip in vehicle numbers on the UK roads today. After a steady rise over the decade from 1995 to 2005, from 1.1million to 2.1million, the current tally has slowly dropped to a mere 1.8million—a strong total despite the depreciation in numbers.
A mixed range of sensibly priced cars
With 21 standard vehicle models available from the full Peugeot line-up, that’s a lot of choice when buying a car.
Without doubt, it’s their SUV offerings that are leading the way; the innovation and technology applied to these stronger models will hopefully be developed through the rest of the range, bringing them into line with what the buying public expect from their motoring today.
The modern Peugeot: executive styling in the making
Catering for city driving, Peugeot has smaller models available that include the 108 city car and the 208 supermini, next up is the 308 hatchback, and then the majority of the models in today’s line-up is their range of SUVs.
However, the 508 saloon, featuring fastback type styling, has grown into an attractive low-slung 5-door coupé. More cars like this could enhance Peugeot’s positioning away from the mid-stream and into executive status.
The historic and iconic Peugeot 205 GTI
It was in the 1980s when the 205 was introduced and seemed responsible for turning around the success of the company. The supermini model was applauded for its style and handling, which led to sales topping 50k units a year.
In 1984 the GTI was launched with a 1.6-litre engine; soon followed by a 1.9-litre model. The high-performance hatchback set standards in thrill-seeking for younger drivers everywhere.
Could the new range of SUVs be responsible for another similarly styled comeback for the French giant?
How often should a headlight bulb need replacing?
This depends on the type of bulbs you have and on how much you use your headlights. Halogen bulbs will usually last for 500 - 1,000 hours, HID will need replacing after around 2,000 hours, Xenon is 10,000 hours, LED can last up to 30,000 hours.
The law, vehicle regulations and your MOT
According to UK law, drivers must have functioning headlights and must use them at night and when visibility is seriously reduced. A broken or faulty headlight puts you at risk of causing an accident and being pulled over and potentially fined by the police.
All headlamps are checked during an MOT and your car will fail if the headlights are broken or don't produce sufficient light. To save time and money be sure to check and replace your headlight bulbs regularly.
What causes a headlight bulb to break?
Headlight bulbs can break for a variety of reasons. For example, because of a blown fuse, if water has seeped into the light or over time they can simply wear out. The most important thing is that you replace the bulbs as soon as possible as it can be very dangerous to drive without them.
When should a headlight bulb be replaced?
This depends on the type of bulbs you have and how often you use them. For example, halogen bulbs will usually last for 500 - 1,000 hours, HID will need replacing after around 2,000 hours, Xenon is 10,000 hours, LED lights can last up to 30,000 hours.
As your headlights are such a vital safety feature it’s crucial that you check them regularly and replace them when necessary.
What are the signs of a failing headlight bulb?
Usually, there a few signs you can look for:
If one or both of your headlights has stopped working
If your headlights are dimmer than usual
If you have noticed your headlights flickering or dipping in and out

What is the average life of a headlight bulb?
The average lifespan of headlight bulbs varies significantly between different types of bulbs. For example, halogen bulbs will usually last for 500 - 1,000 hours, HID will need replacing after around 2,000 hours, Xenon is 10,000 hours, LED lights can last up to 30,000 hours.
Can you drive with a broken headlight bulb?
No, it can be very dangerous to drive with a bad headlight bulb. While driving you rely on your headlights for visibility at night and in bad weather conditions, and they also warn oncoming traffic of your presence on the road. Without fully functioning headlights, you’ll be a danger to yourself and other road users.
What happens if you don't change the headlight bulb?
Without fully functioning headlights you risk causing a serious accident and being pulled over by the police. UK law states that drivers must have functioning headlights and must use them at night and when visibility is seriously reduced.
