Is dust and moisture intrusion causing electrical short circuits o r corrosion in bulb sockets in Changan Kalam?

In areas with rain o r poor road sealing, moisture may damage bulb contacts. Is this a common issue in Pakistans climate?

Yes, especially during:

Monsoon season

Car washes with high-pressure water

Driving through waterlogged streets

Symptoms include:

Flickering lights

Intermittent bulb function

Corroded socket terminals

🛠️ Solution: Use dielectric grease in sockets and inspect rubber seals around headlights/taillights.
