In this video, see how to replace the headlight bulb on a Peugeot 208; in this specific case, it is the bulb on the right side; fortunately, in this vehicle, there is enough space to access it without removing anything, so simply reach in and remove the rubber cover that protects the bulb you need to replace, which you can identify from the outside.

Naturally, you will need to disconnect the electrical connector, then grasp the bulb and pull it towards the engine.

When inserting the new bulb, ensure you do not touch the glass bulb with bare hands (as this would significantly reduce its lifespan), simply push it in the same way it was removed. Reconnect the electrical connector.

Replace the rubber cover, and the job is done.

How to Reset the Tire Pressure Light on a MG ZS?

On the instrument cluster of the MG ZS, the tire pressure light that appears can be reset by inflating the tires to the correct pressure: this value will be indicated on the sticker attached to the driver's door pillar. Once the tires have been properly inflated, you can turn on the instrument cluster and navigate through the menu until you find the option that indicates tire pressure: if this screen shows the new values, the light will turn off; otherwise, you will need to drive for a few miles so that the sensors can read the new values and turn off the light afterward.
