Replacing Front Indicator Bulb

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Side marker bulb

To change the front indicator bulb, you must remove the entire headlamp unit. At first glance, this may seem like a laborious task, but following the images will quickly show you that it is quite simple. Once the bonnet is open, unscrew the screws at both ends of the headlamp, right on the inner edge of the bonnet. Remove the headlamp from its housing and disconnect the electrical connector by acting on the tab. Now that you can handle the headlamp easily, remove the protective cap and, through the opening, unscrew the bulb holder by turning it clockwise. The bulb, as you can see, does not need to be turned but simply pulled out. Once the new bulb is inserted, just reassemble everything. Car model: Ford Focus MK3
Required tools: flathead screwdriver
