Fiat 126 (1987-2000) - Lighting
The lighting of the Fiat 126p has been modernised, but the bulb technology remains a weak point as it offers little light output.
Important lighting components for the Fiat 126 (from 1987)
1. main headlights & high beam
The revised headlights offer slightly improved light distribution, but they are still weak compared to modern standards.
✅ Tip: Converting to H4 headlights or LED lights significantly improves visibility.
2. rear lights & indicators
The indicators were fitted with more modern sockets, but are still prone to contact problems due to oxidation.
✅ Tip: If the indicators work irregularly, the earth cable on the rear lights should be checked.
