2019 Mitsubishi ASX Headlights
Headlights are absolutely relevant and fitted to the 2019 Mitsubishi ASX. Per the 2019 ASX Owner’s Manual (AU/NZ specification), Mitsubishi service literature, and Australian Design Rules for lighting (ADR 13/00 and ADR 46/00), the vehicle is factory-equipped with low and high beam headlamps, daytime running lights on many trims, and headlamp levelling on selected models.
On this ASX, the headlights do the heavy lifting after dark and in poor weather—projecting a clean beam to spot hazards early and keep the driver seen by others. Most AU/NZ 2019 variants use halogen projector low beams with a separate halogen high beam, some late-2019 builds headed into the 2020 facelift may feature LED elements for DRL or low beam. Either way, they’re safety-critical and a regular check should be part of every service.
- Typical bulb types: commonly H11 (low beam) and HB3/9005 (high beam), with W5W/T10 for position lamps. Always confirm against the vehicle’s VIN and owner’s manual, as trim levels vary.
- Replace bulbs in pairs to keep colour and brightness matched.
- If the car has LED low beams, the light is a sealed unit—faults usually require replacing the headlamp assembly rather than a bulb.
- Open the bonnet and locate the rear cover of the headlamp. Remove the cap and disconnect the bulb connector.
- Release the bulb with a quarter-turn (or spring clip), install the correct-spec replacement, and avoid touching the glass with bare fingers.
- Refit the cover, test both beams, then check aim on level ground five metres from a wall.
- Maintenance tips: clean lenses with pH-neutral car wash, not harsh solvents, inspect for haze or yellowing and consider professional restoration if needed.
- Electrical checks: if a light is out, inspect the relevant fuse and connector for corrosion. Voltage drop can shorten bulb life.
- Aim and levelling: after suspension, tyre, or front-end repairs, have the beam aim checked to ADR/warrant standards. Use the manual leveller (if fitted) when carrying heavy loads.
- Moisture: slight misting after rain can be normal, persistent pooling suggests a failed seal that should be addressed promptly.
Popular questions
What headlight bulbs fit a 2019 Mitsubishi ASX?
Most AU/NZ 2019 ASX models take H11 for low beam and HB3/9005 for high beam, with W5W/T10 for park lamps. Trims can differ, so it’s best to confirm against the owner’s manual or the existing bulb markings before purchase.
How do you adjust the headlight aim on a 2019 ASX?
Park five metres from a wall on level ground, measure the cut-off height versus the specifications, then turn the adjuster screw on the headlamp housing to raise or lower the beam. If the vehicle has manual headlamp levelling, set it to “0” before adjustment. A workshop can align to ADR/NZ warrant standards quickly if you’re unsure.
Why is there condensation in the headlight?
A light mist after heavy rain or a wash can be normal as the lamp breathes. It should clear after a decent drive with lights on. If water pools or mist persists, there may be a vent or seal issue—have the housing inspected to prevent reflector or LED damage.
