Replacement of the front headlight bulb of the Subaru XV

Model: Subaru Xv MK 1 - Years 2012-2017
Part: Headlight bulb

In this video tutorial, we will see how to disassemble and replace the bulbs of the front headlight of the Subaru XV. First, we open the hood of the car and start by removing the plastic cover found on the top, taking off all the clips; then we remove the ventilation ducts to access the back of the headlight, as shown in the video. At this point, we disconnect the electrical connector of the bulbs to remove and replace the light with a new one, of the correct type and with the same attachment; then we reassemble the plastic cover!

Replacing the Engine Battery

As this is a generic operation for all types of vehicles, there is no need to specify the make or model. Begin by unscrewing the nut of the clamp located at the base of the battery; loosen the nuts of the terminals on both poles, first removing the positive pole (be careful not to touch metal parts with the terminals). Once the battery is extracted, replace it with one of similar specifications (consult the user manual) and reposition it in its housing, reconnect the terminals starting with the positive to avoid sparks, and tighten the terminal nuts to secure them. The final step is to reapply the clamp and tighten the retaining nut at the base of the battery.
