White light when you back up - yup, they burn out and you can replace them with bright LEDs
If your blinker doesn't blink, or blinks rapidly, you likely have a burnt out bulb
The rear wiper that you forgot you had until it streaks horrifically on a rainy day? Change it now!
If you have an electrical component that doesn't work, try replacing the fuse first

Where is the battery located in a Hyundai i10?
The video above shows you how to replace the battery in your 2012 Hyundai i10. We recommend changing the battery in Hyundais every 4 years. Although some batteries last much longer, most batteries begin breaking down chemically after four years, so you could experience dimmer headlights and other negative effects before you have a dead battery in your i10 that you need to replace.
The battery location in a Hyundai i10 can typically be found in the engine bay, but may be in the trunk, fender or inside of the vehicle. You may need to remove the air filter housing, a plastic engine cover or parts of the cowl to find the battery in your i10. See exactly where the battery is located in your 2012 Hyundai i10.
Replacing the battery in your i10 involves removing the terminals. When you reconnect the terminals, your radio presets are likely to be cleared out. In some i10s, you may need to re-enter a security code to get your radio to work again. Check for this code in your owners manual - it will usually be either a sticker or small card in the booklet. If you can't find it, call Hyundai and they will give you the code for free. In many Hyundais, the transmission "learns" how you drive over time and makes adjustments, so you may experience altered driving dynamics as your car re-learns your driving style after changing the battery.
