Difficulty Level

Tools/Supplies Needed:

• new replacement headlight bulb
• possibly a socket set and ratchet or screwdrivers

Procedure:

• determine which bulb is burnt out
• go to your local auto parts supplier and find a replacement bulb
• replacement bulbs can be determine by either reading the backside of the bulb, searching the internet, somethings found in the vehicle's owner's manual, using the parts catalog at the auto parts store, or having someone assist you at the auto parts store
• remove the bulb which is burnt out from the vehicle
• sometimes a cover, other parts under the hood, or the headlight assembly must be removed in order to gain access to the bulb (depends on manufacturer's design)
• unplug the wiring harness
• the bulb is normally a twist fit, therefore turn it counterclockwise to remove it
• DO NOT touch the new bulb as the oil from our skin can cause a hot spot which will cause premature failure
• reinstall the new halogen bulb being careful not to touch the glass on the bulb
• reinstall the wiring harness
• test to ensure it is operational
• reinstall other parts which were required to be removed if applicable
