Marketed as a 5-door midsize crossover, the Toyota Highlander received the distinction of the first-ever midsize SUV to bear a compact car platform. Introduced in North America in January 2001, it outsized its ladder-framed midsize SUV sibling, the Toyota 4Runner, during its debut. Around that time, it became Toyota’s best-selling SUV right before the Rav4 took it over. The Highlander goes by the name “Kluger” in other markets.
There’s plenty of demand for Toyota Highlander replacement parts, which makes sense since there’s a great number plying the road today. Among the commonly replaced parts are the headlights. Below is a quick guide about Toyota Highlander headlight replacements.
The importance of headlights are straightforward—they help illuminate the road in the dark. Without them, it would almost be impossible to drive at night without being in an accident. You could save yourself from the hassle and danger of running your car with a broken headlight by properly maintaining it. Note the causes of a faulty headlight so you’ll know where to look.
Driving even with just one headlight out is dangerous and counts as a violation in most states so it’s probably better if you don’t risk it. Here are some issues that may cause your headlights to go bad:
The simplest problem when it comes to weak or faulty headlights are hazy lenses, as you can easily clean them using household or special solutions. If you notice that your headlights are dimming, instead of checking the wirings or bulb, try to observe the amount of blurring present on your lenses. The discoloration comes from the lenses’ exposure to ultraviolet rays.
Lens discoloration can make your headlight bulbs look as if they’re dimming. You can get rid of the discoloration using household materials such as toothpaste, baking soda, and vinegar, or chemical compounds and hardware tools like aluminum polishing compounds and sandpaper.
For the headlights to turn on, they needed to be operated using the light switch. Headlight switches differ in appearance; some are in the form of a lever while some are designed as a dial.
If the switch goes bad, it will give the impression as if your headlights are not working properly. Instead of assuming it’s your headlight bulbs, wirings, or other electronic stuff like the fuse, make sure to thoroughly check the switch. Better yet, bring your car to a certified mechanic.
Headlight bulbs have a lifespan depending on the type of bulb. They often fail because of natural wear, but some may malfunction because of electrical problems. It may start with the dimming of the lights, which can lead to erratic operation. You may also find it flickering on certain occasions. If it reaches the end of its service life, it will just stop working. This can be problematic if it happens on the highway with poor lighting. Replace a failing bulb immediately.
A length of wiring connects the battery, light switch, relay, fuse, and the headlights. The wiring passes through different components in the car. If the cable touches a hot component, the insulation can melt and it can leave the copper wiring exposed. An open wire can cause a short and can ruin electrical parts that will eventually lead to the damaging of headlights.
You can purchase an OE replacement Toyota Highlander headlight at the price tag of $24 for the most inexpensive one. You may also check out sets and kits of up to $425 for a pair of two 2017 to 2018 Toyota Highlander headlights. Take note that there are four generations of the Toyota Highlander, so parts may vary from one generation to the other. This can make it difficult to find the right part since there are thousands of products in our catalog.
Good thing you can use the filter tool, where you can input the year, make, and model of your car to narrow down the results. This is perfect if you’re looking for a specific part, say an older one like 2008 Toyota Highlander headlights.
