I recently noticed that one of my main headlights on my 2016 Volkswagen Passat is out. I have never replaced a headlight before and was wondering if anyone could walk me through the process?
ReplyReplacing a headlight on a Volkswagen Passat is actually very simple. First, open the hood of your car and locate the back of the headlight. There should be a cap covering the back with a locking mechanism. Turn the lock counterclockwise to unlock it and then remove the cap. Then, you can twist and remove the old bulb. Make sure to not touch the new bulb with your bare hands as the oils from your skin can damage it. Once the new bulb is in place, replace the cap and lock it back into place. That's it!
I had the same issue on my Volkswagen Passat and was able to replace the headlight without any issues. Just make sure to have a new bulb on hand and follow the instructions I outlined above. If you're still unsure, there are also plenty of videos online showing the process step by step. Good luck!
