In this video, you will see how to change the blown bulb of the front headlamp on a Fiat 500L: first, open the front bonnet by releasing the catch from the lever located on the driver's side, at the bottom of the footwell, near the door. The first step is to locate the bulb to be replaced and remove the rubber protective cap covering the socket and bulb holder.

You can access it directly from the engine compartment without needing to disassemble anything. Once the damaged bulb is removed, replace it with the new one, but remember never to touch the glass bulb with bare hands, as this can reduce the lifespan of the bulb.

Refit the rubber cap and close the bonnet. Task completed.
