How do you replace the headlight in a 2000 suzuki esteem?

Answer 1

Behind the headlight assembly is a large weather boot. Grasp the small portion that the wires come into and pull it straight out to remove the wiring harness. Grasp the large weather boot from the bottom and pull it up. Work your way around the rim and remove it. Yank it off the headlight bulb.

You should then see the headlight bulb and a large wire holding it in place. At the bottom of the assembly is a clasp that holds the wire in place. Work the wire out of the clasp and pull it all the way up. The headlight should now be free and able to be removed. Remove it and replace it with a new one. Align the three tabs of the bulb accordingly; you'll see two of the slots for these tabs at the bottom, the third is at the top. Make sure that the bulb is inserted completely underneath the wire hold-down. This hold-down is required to keep the bulb from moving around. Ensure that you do not touch the bulb with your bare fingers.

With the bulb inserted, push the wire hold-down down into place and lock it into the clasp. Push the large weather boot back on, taking note of the "TOP" label. Push the center portion of this boot around the back of the headlight bulb. Reinstall the wiring harness and test the light.
