Replacing Front Headlamp Bulb

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Headlight

Before proceeding with the replacement of the front headlamp bulb, switch off the ignition and lights. Since there is limited space behind the headlamp housing in the engine bay and removing the headlamp itself is straightforward, it is advisable to remove the headlamp by unscrewing the two securing screws; then disconnect the connector and remove the headlamp from its housing to proceed with the bulb replacement. Next, remove the rubber cover, disconnect the connector, and extract the bulb; insert the new bulb without touching the glass with your fingers, reconnect the connector, and refit the rubber cap. Follow the same procedure to replace the other bulb. Finally, reposition the headlamp, reconnect the connector, and tighten the securing screws.
