Replacing the Front Headlight Bulb on a Volkswagen Up

Model: Volkswagen Up MK 1 - Years 2011-2024
Part: Headlight bulb

Let's see how to replace the damaged bulb of the front headlight. Lift the front bonnet by pulling the lever located at the bottom right of the dashboard, and secure it with the prop rod. Locate the inspection cap of the headlight (located at the rear of the headlight) and remove it. At this point, you will find the bulbs with metal clips; pull the bulb holders out of the headlight and extract the damaged bulbs with the help of a screwdriver. Install the new bulbs in the headlight. Remove the side bulb holder to replace the indicator bulbs. Turn on the instrument panel to check functionality.
