Maintaining and using your vehicle properly can make a big difference in its performance and durability. Although it may seem like a minor detail, turning on your car’s headlights a few seconds before starting it can bring significant benefits, especially in cold weather.
This simple trick helps stabilize the vehicle’s electrical charge and can improve battery performance, preventing long-term problems
A car’s electrical system is powered by a battery, which provides the energy needed to start the engine and power other electrical components. However, if the vehicle is off for several hours, the battery may experience a voltage drop.
Turning on the headlights before starting the vehicle activates a slight energy consumption that allows the battery to be prepared for engine start in a more stable manner.
