I whould say your lamps have done there 2000h. All lamps have a gas charge to retard the oxidation of the filiment. In the case of a car they normaly last about 2000h wich amount to a fair bit of stoping but dont forget once you drive at night and stop you use twice as much of the gas. Buy new lamps ...

disagree wit all of the above

if you turn the key and the motor spins ( starter motor ) your solinoid is bugerd or no power, If you turn the key and you hear a click your starter motor is bugerd or no power, if you turn the key and nothing happens at all most likely the relay has had it this is located next t the batery in a ...
