Front Headlight Bulb Replacement

Model: Saab 9 3 MK 2 - Years 2002-2014
Part: Headlight bulb

To replace the front headlight bulb, you must remove the headlight itself: open the front bonnet and ensure it is securely supported, remove the plastic cover over the battery compartment, the washer reservoir fill tube, and disconnect the fuse box cover. Disconnect the intake hose from the air filter housing and unscrew the headlight fastening screws to remove it from its housing and place it on a convenient workbench. Remove the protective cap from the bulb holder, disconnect the bulb holder and extract the old bulb, insert a new one and reconnect the bulb holder, replacing the cap (use pliers to extract the position bulb). Proceed in reverse for reassembly.

First, release the bonnet using the appropriate lever to lift it and secure it with the prop rod. Then, remove the upper rear cover of the engine, where the tops of the spark plugs are located. Once the cover is removed, disconnect the connectors from the coils that feed the spark plugs at the bottom of the cylinder where the coils are housed. Using a socket spanner, unscrew the spark plugs and pull them out. If your socket is magnetised, it will help; otherwise, you will need to use long-nosed pliers, and you're done!
