Replacing a Headlight Bulb on a Citroen C3

Model: Citroen C3 SC - Years 2009-2016
Part: Light bulb

To replace a headlight bulb on a Citroen C3, first ensure the car is parked on a stable and secure surface, then open the front bonnet. Locate the back of the headlight where the bulb to be replaced is situated, and remove the small rubber cover that protects the electrical contacts from water and moisture. Now, you have access to the bulb that needs replacing. Disconnect the electrical wires, and after moving the spring that holds the bulb in place, extract the bulb from its socket. Install the new bulb and reassemble everything, and if necessary, repeat the process on the other side.
