How to change the passenger headlight bulb? I know how that clip works. There seems to be NO room to get behind the housing to change the bulb. Do I remove the housing to get to the back of it? Battery box leaves about 1/4 inch to work with. Seem like I would need a couple inches to get the new lamp in.

 

The easy way is to simply unclip the whole headlight, it can be done in seconds,

Well that was easy. THANKS!

Changed the bulb but it didn't solve the problem.

I recently got a new passenger housing and bulb after an accident. I noticed after I had the truck back that the low beam lights didn't work. I can go to high beams for night driving. When low beams are switched on there is some light coming out of both sides but not enough for the headlight to work as a headlight. So I thought the new lamp may have had a broken low beam and the car didn't let the lows work just so you knew one was out.

So I changed the bulb and no fix...

Any thoughts on that.

 

Don't know what you drive (it would help people provide advice if you put your model and year in your signature, or at least in your profile) so can only offer general advice.
Best I can offer at this point is:
Check your fuses.
Check the ground from the light (probably ok since the high beams work)
If the above are good, then using a 12v meter start at the light and check all connections until you get a 12v reading. The problem is between there and the last connection you checked.

 

Thanks. It is a 2000 Disco II. Is there a function that turns off the other low beam when one is out? One of my other cars has a feature with a fast blinker rate to tell that one of the bulbs is out. If that is so maybe it is a corroded connector that I can check.

 

it sounds like the village lights. do you have the same amount of low light when you put your corner lights on"?

 

I don't know the DII wiring very well, but if one light were designed to not come on when the other was out, that would be an exceedingly stupid design.
The fast indicator light isn't really a feature rather than just a function of the amount of resistance in the circuit when one indicator light is burned out.

Your headlight dipped beam fuses are 10amp #'s 9 & 10. That would be the easiest first check

 

Just to be clear, the locating pins fit into the locating sockets and you simply pull the headlight away from each of these three pin/socket locations? I'm worried about cracking the plastic...
