How do I replace a pot light bulb?

One of my headlights stopped working. Is there a way to replace the light bulb?

  • i have a honda cr-v and one of my headlights sopped working, is there a way to replace the light without buying the whole thing? and if there is a way, were can i get the light bulb and how do i do it.

  • Answer:

    Yes, you can just replace the bulb. If you still have the manual that came with the car, the instructions should be in it. If not, open the hood, look at the back of the headlight and see where the wires connect to it. You remove the bulb by some combination of taking off a clip and twisting and pulling the bulb. Be sure to remember what you did, so you can reverse the process when you put in the new one. When putting in the new bulb, don't touch the glass, since the grease on your fingers will shorten its life. (Use a kleenex.) As to where to get a new bulb, any auto parts store or Honda dealer. Go in, tell them the model and year, and they can look up exactly which bulb you need. It should cost under $20.

Yes, you can replace just the bulb for your headlight. An auto parts store will have them or you might be able to find one cheaper at a Wal-Mart or similar store. If the bulb is easy to change the parts store might do it for you, but most Honda's are very tight behind the headlights and usually require removal of some minor air intake duct work on one side. Exact instructions can be found in the owners manual for your car.

Yes, most vehicle have access behind the headlight assembly. Go to an auto parts store and ask them to check it for you. Most stores will replace the bulb for you if you buy it from them.
