The initial step for servicing a fog/driving lamp bulb demands careful handling because it maintains pressurized gas inside the glass envelope; so experts must use the bulb base to handle it and prevent contact with the glass component. The fog lamp bulb must stay inside its assembly only right before you will change it to stop contamination from entering the fog lamp and affecting performance. Begin by detaching the battery ground cable and fog lamp electrical connector before counterclockwise rotation of the fog lamp socket to remove it. Follow the opposite order of the removal steps for installing the fog lamp.

Begin servicing the headlamp bulb only after turning off both the headlamp switch and ignition switch. The headlamp electrical connector must be removed from the access cover and its electrical connection must be broken. You can access the headlamp bulb through the cover by turning it counterclockwise before grasping it by the base to protect the glass envelope. You should remove the bulb by first pulling back the connector and then turning the retainer one-quarter turn counterclockwise before pulling the bulb backwards. The installation procedure includes repeating the removal steps yet requires special attention to the new halogen bulb because it holds pressurized gas so any envelope glass contact with objects can cause breakage. Exposure of the bulb to long periods should be avoided to stop contaminants from forming on the lens and reflector and keep the headlamps without bulbs during operation.

Both headlamp and ignition switches should be turned off before beginning service of the fog lamp bulb. Set the vehicle to NEUTRAL and suspend it on a hoist before you remove the 4 screws from the lower radiator air deflector. First detach the electrical connector locator pin before removing the fog lamp bulb by disconnecting its electrical connector. A proper handling method for new bulbs includes gripping only the base part because the compressed gas in bulbs creates risks of breaking or the glass envelope shattering when scratched or dropped. Users must avoid handling the glass envelope of the new bulb since this leads to contamination risks that may harm the performance of the fog lamp. Also users should install the bulb without delay following its removal from the package. After performing the installation steps in reverse order you will finish the process.

A proper service of the headlamp bulb requires both the headlamp switch and ignition switch to be in OFF position. Initiate the procedure by taking out the headlamp assembly. Handle the bulb at the base only since its pressure-filled gas could shatter if the glass envelope sustains scratches or suffers a drop resulting in potential harm to users. After exposing the headlamp bulb you should wait until the last moment to remove it since prolonged exposure will reduce performance by allowing dust to settle on the lens and reflector. The headlamp should always remain off when its bulb is not yet installed. You should replace the bulb by conducting the reversal steps of the removal method.

Service of the fog lamp bulb starts with the need to turn off both headlamp and ignition switches. The bulb contains high-pressure gas so users should handle it with care by only touching the base to prevent glass damage while the bulb remains still inside the glass envelope. Fog lamp bulbs must stay within the assembly unit until the moment before installing a new H1 long-life bulb because storing them outside this timeframe enables contaminants to enter the fog lamp. The first step involves wheel elevation and accessory support before removing the electrical cable and the fog lamp itself. Inserting a new bulb should proceed following the reversed steps of taking the bulb out.

The first step for servicing the headlamp bulb requires careful handling that includes touching only the base section while offering protection against envelope glass breakage and pressure gas damage from drops. The headlamp bulb must remain in place until replacement time because allowing dust or other contaminants to enter will impact its operational output. You start by taking out the headlamp assembly followed by counterclockwise rotation of the headlamp bulb retainer to separate it from the headlamp. The process for removing the headlamp bulb begins with disassembly followed by new bulb installation that requires the opposite order of removal steps.
