Replacing Headlight Bulb on Mercedes A-Class

Model: Mercedes Classe A W176 - Years 2012-2018
Part: Light bulb

You will replace the headlight bulb on your 2016 Mercedes A-Class 200. First, turn the wheel on the side where you need to replace the bulb inward. On the fender, find a sliding cover with a latch on the top that needs to be released. Once the cover is lowered, remove the cap by turning it counterclockwise. Now, also unscrew the socket in the same direction by turning it a quarter turn to extract it. You can now replace the bulb, which is held in place by two clips on the sides. Reinstall the socket into its housing, put the cap back on, and raise the cover, securing the latch. The bulb has now been changed!
