How to Replace Low Beam Headlights
- 1). Determine if the scope of this light bulb replacement is within your skill level by looking up low beam headlight replacement in your owner's manual.
- 2). Open the hood of your car. Remove the burned out low beam bulb from the lamp housing of the headlight. Access from above the car is typical for most makes and models, but some require you to be below the car or have access between the bumper and the headlight. Use the wrenches to remove the bolts holding the headlight in place, if necessary. Bulb should pop out of the housing when you pull from the front of the car toward the engine.
- 3). Separate the bulb from the wires by pulling them apart. Dispose of the dead bulb. Put on latex gloves and plug the new bulb into the wires.
- 4). Fit the new bulb back into the lamp housing and pop into place. Replace bolts and bumper, if removed.
- 5). Close the hood and test the headlights by turning them on and then getting out of the car and looking to make sure they are illuminated.
