If you have to get your vehicle inspected, you’re going to want to be sure it will pass. Here are seven things you can check before heading to the inspection station to improve your chances of passing.
1. Check Your Lights
Check all your lights. This is a simple thing to do, and something you can take care of yourself in many cases. Have someone stand outside and watch while you toggle on and off your headlights, taillights, brake lights, and work the turn signals. Don’t forget to check the high-beams either.
If you have a light out, in many cases the fix is a simple one. You can pick up a bulb at any auto parts store or car dealership. Many auto parts stores offer to install these at no charge too. Putting them in is usually pretty simple, though, if you can’t get help. Check your manual for instructions. Read the rest of this entry »
