Today we will explain how to remove the switch for the front headlights of the Volkswagen Polo car. To remove the switch, we need to rotate the knob in the center and push the switch inwards before removing it by pulling it outwards easily, being careful not to pull too hard to avoid damaging the connector.

To completely remove the switch, we need to disconnect the connector.

Now we can proceed with the replacement. For installation, we perform the reverse procedure; we connect the connector and then insert the switch into its slot.
