How do you change a 2001 Nissan sentra headlight bulb?

Answer 1

Both the driver side and the passenger can be replaced without the use of tools, although a flat head screw driver may be of help... Buy a bulb before you take your car apart ;) To replace first remove the electrical connector, to do this press down on the top of the connector (Iused the flat head screw driver) and pull straight out. Move to be out of the way... Next you will be removing a circular plastic piece which holds the blulb in place, to do this simple grab where the area the electrical connector was plugged in AKA the circular plastic piece and rotate (I did not pay attention to which way) about a half turn or so and it will come off. Put this off to the side, on the ground somewhere you will not lose it ;) Next remove the bulb, just pull it straight out! OK everything is ready for you to add the new bulb, standard rulles apply aka DON'T TOUCH THE BULB! Simple insert the bulb with the flat side up. Put plastic piece back on, you know where it goes now turn until it locks into place. Now reconnect the electrical, push until it snaps, again ensure the connection is on top. Now test!
