How to replace the fog light bulbs of a Mazda 3 MK2

Model: Mazda 3 MK 2, BL - Years 2009-2013
Part: Fog lights

In this video we see how to replace the fog light bulbs on a Mazda 3 MK2: for example, if we are working on the left fog light, we will need to turn the steering wheel completely to the right, because we will access it from the wheel well. And so we need to create space by moving the wheel. On the front bumper there are three clips that we need to remove, with a crosshead screwdriver. We lift the cover and from there, using a flashlight, we can access the back of the fog light. We remove the blue electrical connector, turn the cap to the left by 1/8 of a turn and the H11 bulb comes off with the cap. We replace it (without touching the bulb with bare hands, or the lifespan will be much shorter), put it back in place, insert the electrical connector and close the wheel well clips. Job done.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
