Hazard

In the dipped-beam headlights of the lighting system, the service hole dimensions on the rear of the unit are improper, causing the seal position to shift when the cover is installed, which may prevent proper sealing. Water can then infiltrate the electrical circuit board, and in the worst case, short-circuit the voltage control circuit, resulting in dipped-beam headlight failure.
