I like how these videos show the easy side to replace the bulb, it doesn't show you the ridiculously narrow gap you have to negotiate on the other, (lift up air intake pipe for easier access) ...fiddly indeed.
I fully agree. I had to remove the air duct to get anywhere near the bulb. It's utterly ridiculous how hard they make it for their consumers to perform such simple, but essential maintenance!!!
Why did you remove the headlamp adjustment motor. Does it get in the way of the removal of the plastic cover and the H7 bulb? I removed both bulbs without removing the motor....
You don't have to remove the "retaining clip" as it is not retaining anything its a base for the lamp, and if you lose it good luck replacing it as my dad found out its pretty impossible to buy anywhere
This video was almost helpful, and almost caused me to break my headlight adjuster by pulling it "firmly towards the inside of the engine compartment". This is not how to remove the adjuster once loosened. You need to disengage the blue ball from the back of the adjuster, which has a horizontal slot in it that accepts the ball. If you just yank it you will break something. And why would you even want to do this as part of the process of changing a bulb?
Good evening I have a problem with front light it looks low i checked the small moving motor it works ok but i see that something brake inside light or disabled inside For nissan qashqai 2010 if you have an video it will be great
Hmmm. Removing the cover is easy. The video implies that the bulb will twist and come out. It doesn’t. Can’t see properly and the space is not enough to easily work in. No idea what to to do now. Will have to pay a garage to do this. Surely car manufacturers could make changing bulbs easy.
They want you back in the dealership somthey can charge you an hrs labour for a 20 minute job, they in production only have to touch it once the rest is profit for them, they don't care
Good video except that you showed the RHS side bulb replacements. You removed the beam adjuster in the LHS headlight but then removed the bulb in the RHS unit. I now know that was because the LHS main beam bulb isn't easily accessed like the RHS main beam bulb. You need to remove the air intake pipe but you didn't mention or show this. 3* because of this.
Hi @Will Dendy Racing. Our voice over actress, Susana Larraz, comes from Spain 🇪🇸, and she dubs our videos in English and Spanish, on this channel, our channels Usetool EN and Usetool ES.
There is inadequate space for an adult male to insert their hand to fit light bulbs on Nissan cars, as they were designed by dwarves, gnomes, goblins, imps and elfs, who did not allow for the fact that a normal sized human being might have to work on the vehicle at a later stage! Stephen, if you have trouble getting the blown bulbs out, wait until you see the difficulty there is in getting the replacement bulb fitted. I would suggest that you have a girl with a small hand nearby!
@@Eddie-ev9bv Agreed - there's also the risk (as I found to my cost) of sharp metal edges from parts of the engine bay, sllcing bits of flesh off your fingers and thumbs and getting blood everywhere. If multiple bulbs need replacing it might be easier just to take the entire headlight assembly off the front of the car...though I've not checked if that is going to be any easier...but I assume when the vehicle was built the bulbs were already fitted to the headlight assembly...so, they didn't have this hassle.
@@cableman1958 I can get the blown bulbs out but have to get a girl or woman with "midwifes hands" to fit the replacement bulbs. What a pity someone didn't come up with a suitable tool to do the job.

Yeah I was wondering about that myself

Is the low beams and hight different lamps ?

Hi, Thanks for the Video and the helping..😄😄. For the driver.. becarfull ..the Position Lights remove turn clockwise .
Good evening
I have a problem with front light it looks low i checked the small moving motor it works ok but i see that something brake inside light or disabled inside
For nissan qashqai 2010 if you have an video it will be great
What about the Xenon replacement?
i need to change the back direction indicator left, which bulb should i buy?
Mine has a rubber cover, man is it a pain to try to get it back on
I have been struggling to get the retainer clip for over a year now. Nissan SA is useless to help
Is using gloves a must? Will it kill the bulb without it?
Yes it’s much better with it !

The bulb was a bastard to twist, but I managed it using tissue paper for grip! It's the black part you need to twist and it needs to twist CLOCKWISE
The dipped light beam is not that easy to remove.
very informative. thank you
You're welcome Gordon !

Ma Clé de 12 thanks! And thanks for a super useful video :)
I cannot get my goddamn bulb off even after loosening those catches at the side. The bulb won’t budge
I changed my 2nd lamp without removing that clip, a lot less fiddly and took seconds rather than minutes
