To replace the dipped beam bulb on the Peugeot 208 MK1, open the bonnet and locate the rubber cover at the back of the headlight assembly. Remove it to access the bulb holder.

Disconnect the electrical connector by pressing the side clip, then rotate the bulb holder counter-clockwise to extract it. The bulb is of type H7. Before installing the new bulb, avoid touching the glass with your fingers as skin oil can reduce its lifespan.

Insert the new bulb into the holder, ensuring the reference notch (the small tab) is facing upwards.

This ensures the correct light beam. Refit the bulb holder by rotating it clockwise, reconnect the connector, and replace the rubber cover.

Check the operation by turning on the dipped beams.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
