KIA Sportage 2015 - Headlight conundrum - jcnipper

Dipped headlight not working on NS so replaced bulb only to find still no dipped light. Checked bulb installed another new bulb just be sure. Same result.

Noted the bulb removed at the outset appeared still be to intact (internals) so maybe not a bulb issue..

Can't see a fuse for dipped headlights in manual or fuse box diagrams. Can anyone offer anyclues assiatance?

Thanks, Billy

I would have thought there would be a fuse, is there an engine bay fuse box as well as one inside the cabin? If no joy check there is 12 to 14 volts at the connector, if no volts maybe a trip to the dealer as the car must be under warranty

Many cars now have a lot of bulbs in each headlight . It is very easy to find you are replacing the wrong bulb. Verify from the other headlight as to exact location of the non working bulb.
