Part: Instrument panel light

In this video, see how to remove and replace the climate control bulbs on a first-generation Skoda Octavia, as well as on the Volkswagen Bora and Golf MK4. First, get inside the vehicle and grab a pair of pliers; then pull the knobs towards you to remove them along with the bulbs located at the back, as shown in the video. At this point, extract and replace the bulb-type bulbs with the correct ones (in this case, we have 12V bulbs rated at 1.2W); then reassemble everything by applying the reverse procedure!

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
