Car headlamps typically operate at a voltage of 12 volts, as this is the standard voltage for most automotive electrical systems. Some vehicles may use higher voltage systems, such as 24 volts, but this is less common. The headlamp bulbs, commonly halogen, LED, or HID, are designed to function efficiently within this voltage range.

What formula would you use to calculate the current drawn in a low beam headlamp circuit?

Since power is the product of voltage and current, you will need to find out the power rating of the headlamp when on low beam. To find the current, divide the power of the lamp by the voltage (12 V).

How do you check and adjust the headlamp alignment on a fiesta?

The beams of a headlamp should not converge or diverge. Measure the distance between the headlamps, then mark that same distance on a wall in front of the car, ensuring that the marks are directly in front of the headlamp. Turn on the lamps and use the adjustment screws to the inside and top of the headlamp to direct the beam to the marks.


How do you measure the voltage on a car alternator?

get a multi meter that reads dc voltage & touch the black (negative -) wire to the negative battery post & the red (positive +) wire to the positive battery post with car running. car off is battery voltage, car on is alternator voltage.
