To replace the front headlamp bulb on a Ford Fiesta, start by opening the bonnet and locating the headlamp you wish to work on. Once identified, look for the securing screws around the perimeter of the headlamp and use an appropriate screwdriver to remove them.

Carefully lift the headlamp from its housing and find the bulb to be replaced.

Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise and remove it from the headlamp. Take out the used bulb and insert a new compatible bulb, ensuring it is correctly seated.

Re-tighten the bulb socket clockwise to secure it in place. At this point, refit the headlamp into its housing and screw in the securing screws.

Close the bonnet and check the proper functioning of the new headlamp, and you will have completed the replacement.
