Parts for your 2016 Nissan Serena-Headlights

2016 Nissan Serena headlights — what they do and how to look after them

Headlights are absolutely fitted to the 2016 Nissan Serena and are central to its roadworthiness. Technical sources such as the Nissan Serena Owner’s Manual (2016, Lighting section) and the Nissan C26/C27 Electronic Service Manual list low- and high-beam headlamps as standard equipment, with some trims offering LED units. Regulatory standards like Australian Design Rule 13/00 and New Zealand’s Vehicle Inspection Requirements Manual also require compliant forward lighting for on-road use, confirming headlights are relevant and used on this model.

On the Serena, headlights handle two big jobs: letting the driver see clearly at night and in foul weather, and making the van visible to others. Depending on trim, it may run halogen bulbs or integrated LED projector units. Either way, keeping them in top nick improves safety and reduces fatigue on long night drives.

For regular servicing, think simple and consistent. Give the lenses a clean whenever the van’s washed. Cloudy plastic lenses can be restored with a plastic polish kit, but deep yellowing may call for professional refinishing. If a bulb fails on a halogen setup, replace bulbs in pairs so beam colour and brightness match. LEDs generally last longer
