How to Replace the Number Plate Light on a Citroen C3 Picasso

Model: Citroen C3 Picasso MK 1 - Years 2008-2017
Part: License plate light

Is replacing the number plate light on a Citroen C3 Picasso a complicated task? Let's see in this video how to replace the damaged bulb. Open the boot lid, then unscrew the screws on the plastic trim of the tailgate using a screwdriver. Detach the plastic trim from the tailgate, then unscrew the fixing pins (located between the tailgate metal and the external chrome profile) of the chrome bar with a screwdriver. Finally, disconnect the power connector of the number plate light and detach it from the tailgate using a plastic lever. Once the light unit is removed, extract the bulb with your fingers. Install the new bulb (same size and voltage) into the bulb holder, and reassemble the light unit into the tailgate metal. Finally, test the correct operation of the previously installed bulb.
