3. Remove the bulb
retaining ring by
rotating it
counterclockwise
(when viewed from the
rear) about 1/8 turn to
free it from the bulb socket, and slide the ring off
the plastic base. Keep the ring to retain the new
bulb.
4. With out turning, remove the old bulb from the
lamp assembly by gently pulling it straight out of the
lamp assembly.
5. Release clip and
disconnect the
electrical connector
from the bulb.
To install the new bulb:
1. Install the electrical
connector into the rear
of the plastic base until
it snaps, locking it into
position.
2. With the flat side of the bulb’s plastic base facing
upward, insert the glass end of the bulb into the
lamp assembly. You may need to turn the bulb left or
right to align the grooves in the plastic base with the
tabs in the lamp assembly. When the grooves are
aligned, push the bulb into the lamp assembly until
the plastic base contacts the rear of the lamp
assembly.
3. Install the bulb retaining ring over the plastic base
until it contacts the rear of the socket by rotating
clockwise until you feel a “stop.”
4. Turn the headlamps on and make sure they work
properly. If the headlamp was correctly aligned
before you changed the bulb, you should not need to
align it again.
