Video tutorial

In this video we can see how to replace the license plate light of a Nissan Micra K12 version: the light is located on the rear bumper, and we can remove it by levering with a small screwdriver, inserted into one of the slots on the transparent light cover.

We extract the small optical group and disconnect the electrical connector.

Now we have the light cover in hand, and we can remove the transparent part, snapping the two clips on the sides. To remove the bulb, simply turn it a quarter turn counterclockwise, pressing downwards.

Replace the bulb - always without touching the bulb with your hands - by making the reverse movement, then put the transparent part back in place, closing the clips. Give a spray of WD-40 to the electrical connector, reconnect it and put the light cover back in place.
