    Great video thanks. I’ll just add to what was commented before. Definitely easier to approach the job from above. I took the 2 bolts out and moved the header tank aside. Made the job of the driver side bulb so much easier. Start to finish a little over 30 minutes and no scuffed knuckles.

    Sincere thanks for putting this together. I had the same challenges you pointed out, and despite the lack of footage of the area (given how cramped it is), I was able to follow the directions for a successful replacement. Only comment is that I didn’t really need to access anything through the opening by the tire, it was way too cramped. Appreciate the time you took to make this video!

    I moved the ecu box which is just a clip holing it in position. But never an easy job. Great video helped me a lot to start with.

    I found it easier to undo the two bolts holding the radiator reservoir and moving the reservoir aside.

    Thank you for posting this. I was having the *exact* same issue with the passenger side bulb on my diesel WK2; could get the replacement bulb in but had issues getting the locking collar to turn.

    G’day Mate thanks for the info 🇦🇺Did the new module come Pre programmed?? GC Jeep say they need to program it…?

    • @TheEddysGarage
      @TheEddysGarage  9 місяців тому +1

      Mine was ready to go and didn’t need any programming. It is a MY14 but maybe later ones do. Can you get it from the dealer and try it? If not then bring it back for programming?

      G’day thank you for the quick reply 👍I am grateful.. 2013 Trail Hawk USA parts Brisy also said programming required $668 part
      GC jeep $447 part
      A US UA-cam mechanic thought he would have to program it and was surprised it was pre programmed
      Thank you for your time, I appreciate it.. do you have any other thoughts ..

    Great video. Now my driver side front turn signal stopped working. Same headlights as yours in this video. Any idea how to change the turn signal or doni have to replace the entire lamp?

    Hey, do these lights also have a ballast or is it just the headlight bulb?

  • @jasonthompson587
    @jasonthompson587 Рік тому +1

    I’m doing this now when I accessed the right side bulb (by ecu) the bulb was already loose and broken. The 2 locking clips, does clockwise lock in, I can’t seem to tell and didn’t pay attention when I did the other side 😂

    Thanks for the video. I noticed that your DRL LED is flasing/flacking which I am having the same issue when the lights are one but the DRL run perfctly when running alone (headlights and fog are off). How did you fix that issue?

    • @TheEddysGarage
      @TheEddysGarage  11 місяців тому +1

      My DRL is fine. the flicker is just the shutter speed of the camera.

    Is it a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation to lock in the bulbs? Removed the oem bulbs but can’t remember which way I had to rotate to remove them. Thanks!

    Hey !
    thank your for the video , a short question about the coolant , is it too much or you run the car before you replace the bulbs ?

    Great video, I have the same Jeep Grand Cherokee but I was just wondering did you get D3S globes (same as original) or get D1S? I can't seem to find D3S globes from Stedi

    Great video. Is it a bad idea to only replace the broken bulb and leave the original one in? Could mismatching bulb models cause issues?

  • @СергейДрапак-и6д

    Спасибо за видео очень полезное, хотя у меня 3.6 бензин и с бачком полегче. Но вот после замены нужно отрегулировать фары, были у кого-то такие проблемы и кто-то регулировал их и как он это делал?

    Hi ! Quick question, do you twist the bulb or the plastic cap to lock/unlock the bulb?

  • @phxroadracer
    @phxroadracer Рік тому +1

    One of my bulbs went out. I read recommendations that you should change both so I did. Now, both bulbs are on, but my headlights are really dim and "dispersed" is the best word I can use to describe. And they're not any better when I turn on my brights, maybe even worse. It appears that the deflector that focuses the light and switches from dims to brights isn't work. My headlights don't do the autoleveling when you first start up the jeep. HELP!! Does anyone know if/how to reset the deflector? I have AlfaOBD if there is a way to troubleshoot and/or reset. Thanks, Craig

      No sorry, the turn signal is LED and part of the headlights assembly (not replaceable)
