How does a battery make a light bulb work?
If you place an end of a wire on the negative or positive side, put the outer metal part of the light bulb's cap on the other, and place the other end of the wire on the light bulb's cap's inner metal part, it will turn on.TipBefore you try to do this, always check that the voltage of the battery is equal to, or a bit less than, the voltage of the light bulb!Otherwise the light bulb may only give out a very bright flash and could easily be destroyed.

How do you change headlight on a 2003 Odyssey?
In the engine compartment, there is a wire that connects to your headlight. Unplug this. Then there is a black, rubber, circular piece that you simply pull off. Just pry it off. Then you should be able to see the bulb. From here, you can either pull the bulb out, OR you might first have to unhook a small wire piece that holds the bulb in place. If in unhooking, you resort to unscrewing the hinge screw, make sure not to lose the wire or the screw. Then you can pull the bulb out and replace it with the new bulb. Then screw the wire piece back in place if you can figure it out. I lost the screw. Once you have the bulb in place and the wire piece screwed over it, put the round black, rubber piece back in place and simply plug the wire back into the bulb and you are good to go.

Replace the headlights on a jaguar x type?
I hope you are talking about the headlight bulb and not the headlight assembly. On my 2003 X-Type, I first pop the hood up. You will see a black plastic cover behind the headlight. There is a metal latch that holds the cover. Pull the metal latch to losen and remove the black cover. Careful, the metal latch may drop off the black plastic. Now you have access to the headlight bulb. There are two metal wires hoilding the light bulb. Unhook the metal wires, replace the bulb, and hook it back in place. Good luck!

How do you change headlight and parklight bulbs in 1994 Subaru Impreza?
I know that when changing the Front headlight you just have unplug the plug, you have to just pull it out, then there is a small tab you grab and start to pull the protective rubber cover off. Then there is a small piece of metal that you have to push it and be real easy the metal bracket type thing holds the light in when you get the metal piece off you have to take the bulb make a half a turn and pull it out. DO NOT TOUCH THE NEW BULB!!!!!!!!!! unplug the old bulb plug in the new one put it back in the hole turn it that half a turn, and you use the metal bracket holder whatever you want to call it, lock the light back in place. VERY IMPORTANT IF YOU DONT GET YOUR RUBBER COVER ON RIGHT THAN THE PLUG WILL NOT PLUG IN THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY TO GET THAT COVER ON, SO YOU CAN PLUG IN YOUR HEADLIGHT. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT MAY BE KINDA HARD BUT I DID IT LAST NIGHT IN 5 MINUTES.
