There should be a rubber boot covering the back of the headlight where the wire goes into.

When you remove the wire the boot will pull off and there is a spring clip behind it, The spring holds the bulb in place.

Push in and move Down, If you look it is in a hook to hold it.

How do i change the headlight bulb on my 1990 Honda Accord lx?

I feel kind of stupid asking this, yesterday i went to change the bulb and i just couldn't figure out how to get to the stupid thing!How do i change the headlight bulb on my 1990 Honda Accord lx?

You may have to move the power steering out of the way to get to the bulb if the headlight is on the drivers side. Just pop the power steering canister out of place (it will stay connected) and reach for the bulb.How do i change the headlight bulb on my 1990 Honda Accord lx?
there is a retaining ring that holds the buld into the headlight assembly. to replace the bulb, first disconnect the connector from the old bulb. There is a tab on the top of the connector that pushes backward (toward the engine) and with the tab released and held back you can push the connector downward to remove it. On many of the older cars you need to use a flat blade screwdriver to push the sides of the connector downward because the connectors are stuck on from years of dirt and grime buildup.



with the connector removed you can reach the retaining ring that holds the bulb in. the retainer ring is a circular ring that locks the bulb in place. to release the bulb you turn the retaining ring counter-clockwise (when looking at the ring from the engine). The ring should turn between 1/8 and 1/4 turn before the bulb will pull out. The bulb comes out straight rearward.



you replace the bulb by reversing the above steps. As a caution, don't handle the bulb by the glass; only touch the plastic housing or you'll cause the new bulb to fail prematurely.



you may have to remove the power steering reservoir or the air inlet tube on some models (the thing that looks like a periscope on the right side--it just pulls straight up and out) to get to the bulb if you have big hands, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem.



hope that answers your questionHow do i change the headlight bulb on my 1990 Honda Accord lx?

Go to a garage. Let a mechanic do it if you have no experience.How do I change out the headlights on a 2006 Nissan Titan?
Those plastic trim cover under the lights may break taking them off if you don't know how to remove them grill work has to be removed seven square 1/4 with screwdriver slots and 2' long screwdriver and flashlight to release the grill if your skinny armed and double jointed you can remove the 2 ten millimeter bolts under each head light and the other ones you see on the inside top and behind the inner fender liners. A body shop or Nissan Technician who has had the front ends off of a Titan is who I would get to replace those lights. Also check your truck for recalls the condenser cooling fan may need inspecting.How do I change out the headlights on a 2006 Nissan Titan?
there are usually just some pins that hold the headlights in place under the hood. they make it so it is not hard, and if you dont find any easy way to get the headlights out then check the book that came with your truck.How do I change out the headlights on a 2006 Nissan Titan?

    How do I change the headlight Bulb on my Infiniti M35?

    Thank you for looking. I own a 2006 Infiniti M35, and am looking to change the HID Bulb. I read the owners manual, but it states to take it to the dealer, which I refuse to do for a simple bulb change. Does anyone know how exactly to do it? Thanks a lotHow do I change the headlight Bulb on my Infiniti M35?
    Bring it to the dealer. Screw it up and it's going to cost you a bundle.How do I change the headlight Bulb on my Infiniti M35?
    Take the wheel off the side with the burnt out bulb. Next pull the 6 plastic rivets out of the front fender well shield. Take the screw out of the shield above the 3 rivets along the inside of the fender edge, Pull the shield back starting at the top where it's tucked under the back portion of the liner shield. Unscrew the top plastic cover, twist the connector counter clockwise and pull it off the bulb. Then unclip the bulb and pull the bulb out noting the groove position for reinstalling the new bulb in the housing.

    There is nothing simple about your bulb change. The dealer price of the bulb is around $245.00.

    Go to the dealer, ask about the service. Make friends with a technician that will do it on the side, or get a referral for an infiniti tech from another owner. It will save you 50% or more of the dealer cost and you don't run the risk of doing it wrong.

    If it's like most headlights, open the hood and look at the back of the casing. There should be a large knurled knob that encircles the wires leading to the bulb. If you rotate that CCW the socket should pull out with the bulb in it. Remember don't touch the new bulb with bare hands, if you do, clean it with rubbing alcohol. The oil from your skin will make a new bulb burn out pronto. Bring the old bulb to the auto parts store they will match it up. Good luckHow do I get inside the casing to change the headlight bulb on my 01 Ford Taurus.?

    well i will recommend you to use or see your car manual and it should tell you what to do. i will say first you need to unplug the electrical harness out from the bulbs. and then take the seal or the water house sealing out and look for the metal that holds the bulbs and unlatch it and take the bulbs out. and remember when installing the new bulbs, be sure not to touch the bulbs because that will shorter the life of the new bulbs. so the best way to do this is buy looking into your car manual and read and understand the whole thing or if you don't want to damage anything to your new beautiful. i will suggest you take it your Nearest Lexus or Toyota dealer. they can help you install it but will cost you money or just take it your nearest autozone too. may be some guy who have experience and help you instill it. good luck.

    How do I change a headlight on my 83 Honda Nighthawk Motorcycle?

    My low beam headlight on my nighthawk burnt out, and I need some advice on what part it is, where to get it, and how to change it.How do I change a headlight on my 83 Honda Nighthawk Motorcycle?
    There's a single screw on bottom /center of the headlight case on the Rectangle lights.



    On the Round lights,,,

    there's 2 screws positioned at about 4 O'clock and 8 o'clock,,on the headlight case.



    On either type light,,,

    remove those screws,

    then pull headlight out at the bottom first.



    Its a sort of Tilt motion,,,tilts out at bottom.

    The Upper edge of the Beam Assembly %26quot;hooks%26quot; into the upper area of the headlight case.



    You will probably have to Pry the light's Chrome Trim Ring from the Case to get it started



    Be careful,,,it all come loose rather suddenly and will fall free.



    To RE-INSTALL,,,,Look at the detail of the Inside of the Case's Upper Head,,,you can see how it hooks in.

    Hook it in to Upper Edge first,,,then %26quot;swing %26quot; the bottom edge in towards the case.



    The assembly Faintly %26quot;snaps%26quot; into place.

    Re-install the screw/screws.



    TRY to get screw holes lined up before snapping beam assy into place.

    Tuff %26amp; tedious to get it positioned exactly right ,,,usually.



    You should be able to turn the beam assy on the Round Light(cb750's) if needed.

    The Rectangle 550/650 lights %26quot;naturally%26quot; go into position.

    ......................................?br>
    The BULB is a 55/60watt H-4 Halogen Bulb.



    (The 450 Nighthawks have a sealed beam unit vs the separate bulb/beam assy of the bigger bikes.

    Best/easiest source is usually a Honda Dealer,unless you want to mail order one)



    That's a Common type of bulb....H4



    Bike Shops,Autoparts,even places like WalMart have them.



    Phillips Brand is generally overall %26quot;best%26quot; bulb.



    Phillips models %26quot;Power2Night/GT150%26quot; or %26quot;Vision Plus%26quot;

    are Excellent Replacements if you're interested in upgrading.



    There's a BUNCH of brands,,,,power ratings,,light colours,etc.



    %26quot;Standard%26quot; or %26quot;Long Life%26quot; or %26quot; PLUS%26quot; type wording is usually best choice.



    All the more exotic options are not what they're cracked-up to be,,in my opinion.

    They get expensive,,,and are not very durable.





    Phillips,,G.E. and Sylvania are commonly available at most AutoParts,Walmart,etc.

    Hella and Bosch are also very good bulbs if you happen upon those.

    They are all good choices,including their upgrade/hi-performance versions.



    Original Honda Bulb from the Dealer is a good bulb also.



    Dont get romanced by the Advertising Hype on the bulbs you may see.



    Bulbs seem to be a big Fad lately,,,especially the %26quot;Blueish Ones%26quot; which try to mimic Hi Intensity Discharge%26quot;HID%26quot; Bulbs.

    Many motorcycle headlights have a trim ring around the front of the bulb that must be loosened in order to get the bulb out. ask your honda dealer, and pick up a bulb there at the same time.How do I change a headlight on my 83 Honda Nighthawk Motorcycle?
    Go to the nearest Honda repairs/parts because you will find that the headlight is a sealed unit and you will have to replace the entire headlight.

    To do this; remove the headlight from the housing that holds it (a couple of screws and you should be able to lift it out) and unplug. Replace with new unit and tighten screws complete.

    If you wish to not pay for a complete unit, cut carefully the old globe out of the lens, purchase a new standard car globe, if need be, enlarge the hole to fit the new globe snugly and silicon in (making sure you put in the correct way so low beam is at the top of the lens), make sure bottom glass of globe sitting flush with the bottom of lens (so you don't throw the focus of the light beam out), allow to set over night before you replace in the bike.



    Good luck

    You have to remove the entire headlight housing to access the bulb. There is one retaining screw and two retaining pins. Remove the screw, then take the pins out (just pull straight up hard.) The bulb then simply twists out of the back of the housing.How do you change a headlight bulb in a 98 Ford Taurus?

    Do I have to take the whole bumper off to get the headlight assembly out? Or can I change it from the back?How do I change the headlight bulb on a 98 Honda Civic?
    You do not have to remove the headlight assembly in order to replace the headlights on your car. Now the turn signals are in the fenders and so that's a different story.



    To replace th eheadlights in a '96-'00 Honda Civic:



    - Open the hood of the car.



    - Pinch either side of the square black plug on the back of the headlight housing. They do somethign stick, and so if they do just press in one side and lean it in the opposite direction then after that pinch in the other side. That usually works for me



    - Remove the black rubber boot from the back of the housing by pulling it off.



    - There is a metal clip on the headlight housing behind that rubber boot. Press it n and unclip it (you'll see when you get there).



    - Now the bulb is free. Remove the bulb.



    - When you replace the old with the new bulb DO NOT touch the glass on the bulb! This will leave oils from your skin on the bulb and will cause it to possibly burn out faster (it heats up the outside of the bulb more).



    - Do everything in reverse to replace the bulb. :)



    It's pretty easy and you should probbaly pick it up after once. Your owner's manual shoudl also have illustrations in it to explain the removal and install. Good luck.How do I change the headlight bulb on a 98 Honda Civic?
    For the driver's side headlight; I found that lifting up on the power steering reservoir until it became unlatched from it's mounting and separated from it's bracket, gave me much more room to get that damn headlight connector off and a new bulb in without tainting the bulb.

    I am trying to help a friend of mine change his headlight bulb (just the bulb, not the whole assembly). He has a 1997 Olds Cutlass, and we're not sure how to gain access to the bulb. The headlight assembly has metal plates behind it, so we don't have direct access to the bulb. I've never come across a vehicle that doesn't offere easy direct access to the bulb. I'm thinking we're going to have to pull the whole headlight assembly forward in order to get to the bulb, but we're not exactly sure how.



    Come to think of it, this also brings up the question: How many automotive novices does it take to change a headlight bulb?



    Thanks.How do I change a headlight bulb on a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass?
    On this car there is a bulkhead behind the headlight assembly which prohibits normal access to the bulbs. You need to remove the assembly from the front to get at the bulbs.



    This is actually pretty easy and should be described in your owners manual. If you don't have that just look for two plastic tabs that push down from the top to secure the headlight assembly in place. Pull those up and the whole thing should slide right out. Then just reach for the bulb, give it a little turn and pull it out.How do I change a headlight bulb on a 1997 Oldsmobile Cutlass?

    So what exactly is the probelm if the bulbs don't light the actual headlights are the bulbs, you asking about the headlight assembly or housing which has a reflector and casing and lens. And no the above user is wrong its called a compostie halogen bulb not sealed beam. So again if they niether turn on check wiring, fuse and ten headlight switch, you only need to change the assembly if the reflector or lens are really damaged or scratched or broken.How to completely change a headlight on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am GT?

    Your car has a sealed beam headlight assembly, meaning you only have to replace the bulb itself.

    1. Raise your hood, 2. there should be a piece of plastic that is over the top of your headlight, either remove it or move it out of the way, 3. the plug is located under the plastic piece. It will have to be rotated 1/4 turn then pull straight back. The bulb is in the socket. 4. pull bulb from socket and take to parts store and give them the numbers off your old one. Install in reverse order. ****Special Note: Do NOT touch the bulb with your fingers. The oil off your hands will blow the bulb. I usually use a napkin or anything similar. Good luck. I hope this gets you going. The bulb is probably under $10.00 and can be changed in about 5-10 minutes.How to completely change a headlight on a 1999 Pontiac Grand Am GT?
    The headlight assembly is just a lens. You dont need to replace it unless it it physically broken or cracked.



    If you replaced the bulb and it still dont work, try replacing the plug and harness.



    Often the contacts get burned out or corroded and the lamp wont work.

    Thank You :)How do I change the headlight bulbs on my Vauxhall Corsa?
    To change the headlight bulbs, you need to disconnect the multiplug on the back of the bulb first. These just pull off but are ridiculously tight (don't pull too hard because the headlamp mounting clip will shatter and the headlamp will flop about). Try to hold the bulb itself while you pull this off (squeeze the bulb through the rubber cover surrounding it). Once disconnected, remove the rubber cover.

    The last step is to move the wire clip that holds the bulb. You should see two bent wire rings above the bulb, push in and to one side to unhook and then the bulb drops out. The bulb will only go in one way so make sure the locating tags are the right way up (large tag to the top). Don't touch the glass of the bulb with your fingers as it will shorten its life.



    If the mounting clip breaks, they cost very little from a Vauxhall dealer and just need the headlamp removing to replace them.How do I change the headlight bulbs on my Vauxhall Corsa?

    The headlamp assemby does need to be removed. There may be some plastic wing nuts on top or they may be the 10mm bolts.

    They are usually on the metal cross member behind the head lamps. Then the bulb is just a twist to the left and pull. There may also be a small plastic lock tab preventing the bulb socket to turn.

    The bulb might not be bad, the lenses are most likely just fogged over. You can try and clean them with stuff from the parts store or just get new ones.How do i change a headlight bulb on a 1999 pontiac grand am GT?
    One can buy a bulb for @ $10. Read the owner's manual. At the rear of the headlight assembly simply turn the center piece that has the wires going to it. This contains the bulb. Remove the old bulb. Insert a new bulb but do not touch the bulb with your skin as the oil from your skin will damage the bulb. (wear gloves) Then replace the center piece and you are done. Bulbs only need to be replaced when they burn out. If it ain't broke don't fix it.

    How do I change the headlight bulbs on a Jeep Cherokee, 1994??

    Can anyone help? I cannot gain access to the rear of my Jeeps headlights so as to change the bulbs. There must be an easy method or do I have to take apart the complete housing?How do I change the headlight bulbs on a Jeep Cherokee, 1994??
    It`s a long job, all done from the front of the car. There is no access from under the bonnet to the back of the light housings

    You need to take off various bits of trim including the dummy side light/indicator. Take off the trim around the light, this will give you access to the screws that hold the light unit in place. Carefully remove the %26quot;bezel%26quot; as it`s called and the light unit will be free to take out. Take care with the lead to the side light , the main bulb is held in place by the %26quot;usual%26quot; spring clip. When you put it all back together make sure that the lights work BEFORE you put all the trim back, it`s very easy to dislodge the side light bulb!

    The procedure is covered in detail in the Haynes manual.

    I just changed mine it is Halogen %26amp; very easy. If you have a fax number I will photo copy info %26amp; send it. If you have your book-

    page 276.

    Once you see the photo you will be able to determine what you have as I did, There are two types of head lamp bulbs......



    Halogen %26amp; Xenon.



    Xenon bulbs :recommend Mercedes / professional installation due to high voltage as book states.



    Halogen bulbs contain pressurized gas -you can not touch it with bare hands -it can explode if you scratch it while it is warm' Protect your eyes %26amp; hands and all ways make sure car is cold.



    The Halogen bulb was $18.00 %26amp; I installed it--NO problem I own a CLK 320 White body-Grey interior Navy Blue convertible
