Video tutorial

The video guides us through replacing the bulb of the left front headlamp. Start by removing the battery cover and the fuse box cover to create as much space as possible for comfortable working.

Next, you will find a locking clip that needs to be released by pulling it back and upwards, freeing the bulb holder. Once the connector is removed from the blown bulb, disassemble it by unhooking the clip that holds it in place.

After removing the blown bulb, proceed to install the new one, ensuring to follow the orientation indicated by the metal notch and make sure not to touch the glass of the new bulb for any reason. Reassemble everything following the steps in reverse order.

In the video, the operation is performed on a Toyota Yaris, but it is the same for all cars with halogen headlights.
