420713187 Audi SOCKET

It's basically a connector. It accepts another part, usually a bulb for a light – headlights, taillights, even interior lights – and provides the electrical connection so the light works. Sometimes it holds the bulb physically in place, other times it works with a separate retaining clip or ring. There are a lot of different designs, but they all do that same basic job. Think of it as a critical link in the lighting system. Without a good socket, even a brand new bulb won't illuminate. It’s part of the wiring harness, so it receives power from the car’s electrical system and then passes it on to the bulb itself. It’s often tucked away in the headlight or taillight housing, so you don’t directly see it when everything is working properly. Well, if a socket corrodes, cracks, or simply wears out, you’ll notice if your lights start flickering or stop working altogether. It’s a safety thing, obviously. Headlights and taillights are essential for visibility. Beyond safety, a bad socket can also cause electrical shorts, which can damage other components. They aren't super expensive to replace, and honestly it’s a pretty straightforward repair if you can get to it. You can find all sorts of sockets at places like Fixparts Online, and they usually have diagrams to help you make sure you're getting the right one for your vehicle. It’s one of those things that acts like a shield, protecting the rest of the system from bigger problems, so it's worth keeping in good shape. Audi quality assured: Socket (MPN 420713187) includes a 12-month warranty!
