Vauxhall Zafira - Video tutorial

Model: Vauxhall Zafira MK 3, Zafira C - Years 2011-2019
Part: Rear light bulb
Operation: How to replace the rear brake light bulb of the Opel Zafira

To replace the stop light bulb of the right rear headlight, we start by opening the trunk, removing the caps covering the screws with a slotted screwdriver, unscrewing the two screws holding the headlight with a crosshead screwdriver, then applying slight pressure from the outside of the headlight towards the rear to release it from its housing; on the rear side of the headlight, we find 3 bulb holders that need to be unscrewed half a turn to remove them from the headlight assembly, we identify the stop light bulb holder (located at the point of the headlight that extends), unscrew it half a turn and remove it, take the bulb, press and rotate it counterclockwise to remove it (not shown in the video), once the old bulb is removed, take the new bulb, place it on the bulb holder, press and rotate it clockwise to lock it into the bulb holder, insert the bulb holder into its housing and screw it half a turn, reposition the headlight in its housing, screw back the two crosshead screws and reposition the caps covering the screws. Finally, go inside the car, press the brake pedal and check the proper functioning of the bulb.

How do I unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series?

In order to unlock the automatic transmission of the BMW 3 Series, the Start / Stop button and the lever release button must be pressed at the same time. This procedure will allow the car gearbox to be unlocked for about 15 minutes, so that in the event of an engine failure, the car can still be moved. It may be necessary to repeat the operation more than once for its success. After unlocking the gearbox, it can return to its original state by simply waiting for the aforementioned 15 minutes, or by pushing the release lever forward for a few seconds.
