Bulb Replacement
FRONT FOG LIGHTS (circular type)
Replacement bulb: H1 55 watt.
To access the light unit, the small access panel immediately below
the relevant light must be removed from the underside of the car.
Refer to ‘FRONT DIRECTION INDICATORS (circular type)’,
page 244 for information on how to remove this panel.
Detach the electrical connector from the rear of the light unit by
lifting the lever on the side of the connector and pulling the
connector downward. Twist the bulb holder an eighth of a turn
anti-clockwise to release it from the rear of the light unit. Holding
only the metal part of the bulb, pull to remove it from the bulb
holder.
NOTE: It may be necessary to insert the blade of a small screwdriver
under the metal flange at the base of the bulb, and use as a lever to separate
the bulb from the holder.
When replacing the bulb, note that the circular flange has a flat on
one side. The flat must align with the lug on the matching face of
the bulb holder. Similarly, note the three tabs on the perimeter of
the bulb holder (one small and two large); correct alignment of the
tabs will ensure the holder is replaced the right way round.
During use, Halogen headlight bulbs may shatter if the glass
has been scratched, or contaminated with oil or perspiration.
DO NOT touch the glass. If handled, clean with methylated spirits
and a clean cloth.
