When a main beam bulb on the Kia Sportage blows, replace it as soon as possible to ensure safe driving and avoid penalties. To do this, open the bonnet and move to the front of the headlight containing the bulb to be replaced.

Inside the headlight, you will find a plastic cover that you will open with a slight twist. Remove the bulb after a gentle rotation.

Pull it out from the connector and replace it with a new bulb. Insert the electrical connector, position the bulb in its housing, and secure it with a twist.

Finally, replace the protective cover.
