How To Replace Your Low Beam Headlights 2013-2017 Subaru Crosstrek
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- In this video I will show you how to change out the bulbs in your Low beam headlights on a 2013-2017 Subaru Crosstrek. The bulb you will be needing is a H11. I always replace bulbs in pairs. Why you ask? As bulbs age they do get dimmer. So, if you have burned out one of your bulbs, you will have a spare. There are many options when it comes to levels of brightness. If you have any questions feel free to ask. #DIY #Subaru #Sylvania
I am a 46 year old woman who knows hardly anything about cars. Thanks to this video I was able to change my headlight bulb, thank you!
Glad to help ya out @Staci Huckins Congrat on doing it yourself. Good For you!!!!!! So the next time one of your other bulbs burns out..... You know where to come.
Tie-dye Dude, you are the freaking man. My husband is out of town for a month and Pep Boys was trying to change me $114 for parts and labor to change my headlights. Thank you so much. You are a great teacher and made it so do-able that I feel like a capable adult. I thought I was going to have to take the battery out on the left side!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!❤
@feralstreak9204 Nice to see you found my video and were able to follow along and change your headlights on your own. I'm glad you saved yourself some money for that labor charge. Nice to see, you weren't afraid to work on your own car. Good Job!
Well, I’m a 20 year old girl with no car experience and just changed mine myself because of this video! Directions were very clear. Thank you thank you thank you!
That's AWESOME @McKenzie Merrill Good job! Glad to help you out. At least you know where to come when you have to change any other lights out as well.
20 year old woman :))
This was the SECOND video I watched. Glad I did. The first had NOTHING about removing the washer tubing OR the snorkel. Your instruction saved me a lot of time and frustration.
Glad I was able to help ya out @Danny Clayton. I too have seen many of the other videos. I don't believe in taking short cuts. Its best to show everyone how to do it right.
I know this video is old, but THANK YOU! You made it so easy for me to change my own headlights. I’m so proud of myself and I only broke one clip-the one holding the part for the washer fluid! (Had to happen. It’s so cold out and I’m lucky the headlights lasted 7 years as it is!) Now I can just go buy a pack of those and I’m done!
Good Job @cherylr1850 yeah most plastic parts are brittle when temps start dropping. If it's really cold out and I have to remove plastic clips I warm them up a little with a heat gun... (or a blow dryer)
Thank you. 43 year old woman..did it all by myself..with your help of course!
So glad I found your channel. I love the attention to detail you give and the pace of your teaching. Watched it all the way through and changed both headlight bulbs without a problem. Thanks !!
You are welcome @jmac777able I believe in not leaving my viewers guessing when it comes to repairs on their vehicles. To many UA-camrs out there that just leave simple things out.
Changed my headlight bulbs in 10 minutes. Thank you so much! Will be looking at more and more of your content in the future!
Nice Job @Tyler Massey ! I've got pretty much all the bulbs covered.
Thank you for your video! It helped me replace my girlfriend’s headlight easily, and we both appreciate it!👍🏻👍🏻😁
You are welcome @aaronstreet1054 Now you know where to come when one of the other lights burns out on ya. :)
I had a Acura RDX last year and when I watched various videos on replacing the headlight, they all showed taking the car basically apart to get to the bulb... and that seemed about right when I attempted it but gave up - SO, I’m thrilled to see that it seems to be much easier with the Crosstrek which I purchased 6 months ago and now have a bulb out. Thanks for the easy to understand video... it’s 2AM now so I’ll give a go at it during the day. Thanks again.
I agree with you @Mile High Dude some cars make it almost impossible to swap out a bulb. I'm sure you will have no issues swapping your bulbs. Let me know how it turns out for you.
@@IamWedge Happy to report success! It would have gone faster if I had hands the size of Barbie... but I made do. Thanks again.
@@@Kitsaper LOL.... I hear ya not many of us have small hands to get in to those tight places on our cars. Thanks for the update. I'm glad the video helped you out. You know where to come when you need to replace any of those other lights. :) Thanks for stopping by again. Take care.
Thank you thank you thank you. I replaced the headlights in my wife’s car and she’s proud of me now. 😆
Sometimes... It's the simple things. Congrats on saving yourself some money.
Thank you so muchbfor making this process so easy. O watched a few other videos and they left everything in place and worked around it and it looked like a pain in the ass. Your way was so much easier. Thank you again! I have a 2016 Subaru Crosstrek and this method worked perfectly!
You are welcome @Jessica Hutchins Nice to hear you were able to do it yourself. Good Job!
Thank you so much for your video!! I discovered passenger side low beam was out. I’ve been THAT jerk driving around with one bulb out! UGH!!
And thank you for the note about replacing both sides at the same time! Makes perfect sense!! (I recently successfully changed out my bathroom faucet by watching UA-cam videos to learn. If I can do that, then I should be able to change out my low beam bulbs on my Crosstrek!) Thanks again.
You are welcome @Ann Grabowski At one point or another we have all been that person with one headlight. I'm glad my video was able to help you change those bulbs out. Nice Job!
Thanks that was very easy to follow, and helpful. As usual, I broke a bunch of plastic retainer clips. I can NEVER get those things out without breaking them. Off to the parts store!
I hear ya @adamreplogle8227 if you are in a cold area those clips do break when it's cold outside.
Thank you so much for posting, IamWedge. You helped this 58-year old change a bulb for the first time. #COVIDprojects
GOOD FOR YOU @Catherine Schmidt !! I figure if I show people exactly how to do it right, you can't fail. There are so many things owners can do to their own cars. Saving themselves the time and money not paying a shop to do something simple. Now, you know where I am the next time you have any of your other bulbs that need to be replaced. I have videos for all the bulbs! Thanks for stopping by.
Perfect, simple instructions. Exactly what I needed. Thank you!
Thank You @Rob Schulte Now you know where to come when you need to replace any of the other lights. :)
Exactly what I needed! You are a great teacher. Thank you so much for this wonderful tutorial!
Thank You @RWR I appreciate your kind words. Now you know where I am when you need to replace any of the others on your Subaru.
Very clear, straightforward and helpful. Thanks!
Thank You Sir. You are welcome @Kent Rice. :)

Great video and walk through. My roommate has a Subaru and she's clueless on anything car and house related. ❤❤
Thanks @Tootsie-rollingstone Travels. I have a few different light related bulb changes for the Subaru Crosstrek.
Fantastic instructions. Just what I needed. Thank you so much
You are welcome @grayangora1000 glad to help out. :)
Great how to video. These type of videos have helped me a lot. Thanks for sharing Wedge.
Thanks Chris. If I can help a few people save some money... it was well worth it.
Hey, thanks!, I couldn't remove the bad light, and it was because of the lock, thanks a lot!

Very grateful 🙂
Thanks for watching @Te_Kanawa Glad to help out. :)
How about the other bulb on the other side? theres so many things in my way when trying to get to the area.
The video shows exactly what to do on both sides. You can do it. :)
This is a dumb question 🤦🏻♀️ both of mine went out so I’d like to replace them. You have put in the description H11 bulb. H11-2 is what came up in the search. This this the same?
I believe the H11-2 may be referring to "-2" as a pair of bulbs. Care to send me a link to your search?
9:42 pm and for some reason, both decided to burn out st the same time lol. Guess I'm driving with the brights on allll the way home. Hate to do it, but can't fix it right now.
@SuperMontsta both at the same time? That isn't something that happens often. I hope you got it all fixed. Thanks for watching!
@@IamWedge Yeah, I was shocked. Didn't even notice it at first, because was in the city with plenty of lights on. Then I looked at a cars bumper and realized I didn't see a light reflection. I thought maybe a fuse blew out, wasn't even sure it was headlights, but couldn't check that either.
Had to drive home with brights on since I live in the burbs. Felt bad about it, but had to. Eventually got home, checked fuse next day and was good. Followed your tutorial and fixed it easy, thanks!
Which bulb lights when you place the car in drive? Which is the running bulb?
@herrsteppenwolf You mentioned the running bulb aka DRL / Daytime Running Light, this is the center bulb. It's the high beam light. It's in a lower power mode. I have a video on that as well. ua-cam.com/video/nSYinB_mQF0/v-deo.htmlsi=sqX9EZd-rbim0MiN
Makes me nervous taking the washer fluid tube out. Trying to do it without but I can't unplug the bulb. I'm doing my bulbs right now.
It's really easy @Dan M Just twist it back and forth as you pull up on it. Don't forget to lube that oring when you reinsert it. You got this!
@@IamWedge I have the 2016 so mine must be different. It would not come out. Upon further inspection at the bottom there is a plastic notch preventing me from pulling it up and out of the larger reservoir. So I just unscrewed the top part as you and did and rotated the tube as much as I could out of the way. I was barely able to get back in there to unplug and replug the new one in. The passenger side was much easier. Thanks for the video!
@@DannoM_ Once you removed that top pin that hold that fill tube in place, thats why you rotate the tube. To get it out of that notch. Once you have it out of the notch it should come right out of the hole. At any rate, now you know for sometime in the future. Yes, that drivers side is a little bit of a tight area to work in. I'm glad you were able to get your bulbs swapped out. Nice to know the video is helpful. Thank you and Take Care.
@@IamWedge hmm okay. I did rotate it a lot and it wouldn't budge. I thought maybe Subaru put it there so it couldn't be removed. Thanks for the info!
Thank you
You are welcome @Nicholas Lanzo I have most of the bulbs covered on my channel.
How do you change the small light above the blinker on driver side. The one with the white clip.
You are talking about the C lights? AKA the Boomerang lights. ua-cam.com/video/zPQ781Sgqno/v-deo.htmlsi=NHKBICLeO7ITAQyy
Thanks!!!!
You are Welcome @Sbaily99
THANKYOU Sir.
You are welcome! @SuperLuminal Man
@@IamWedge I DID it. Swapped out both the LBs and the Fogs and the work GREAT .. had some issues, hassles .. want to share some feedback another time; gotta git work. Thanks again.
Replaced mine this very way but still isnt working! Fellow Subaru folks, any advice? My guess is a fuse? Having trouble identifying the correct one. Bulb issue is on the passenger side.
I would start with a meter and see if you have power going to the pigtail for the bulb.
i cannot seem to figure out how to put my new H11 bulbs back into the connectors. they simply just do not fit
Are you talking about getting them to go back in the headlight housing? See at time mark @2:14 ? the final resting position is about 8 o'clock. So, that would mean somewhere between 5 -7 would be where to insert them. See where the wire connector comes out the bottom? Now think of the hands of a clock. Just rotate the bulb's housing till you feel it drop into place. Then rotate till you hear it click into place. Just take your time and find the proper location. Hope this helps
@@IamWedge make sure you have the correct bulb... hi beam bulb is different than the lo beam bulb and cannot be switched. After you pop the hood, the hi beam jumps out at you... the lo beam is tucked in further to the outside.
Do u have a video for , my car horn not working
Could possibly be your horn relay. What kind of car?
Any idea about the 2021 Subaru crosstrek convenience model? Same bulbs?
I want to change to led brighter bulbs.
I havent looked at the 2021 Housing and info is limited. The only way to find out What bulb is in there is to look in the book or take the bulb out of the housing. Check whats printed on the bulb. Don't touch the glass element with your bare fingers.
@@IamWedge
Thanks for your reply. I'll check in the daylight tomorrow.
Yes I know about not touching the glass portion.
I used to sell quartz bulbs as the parts manager at a car dealership.
@@firstchoicelastchoice28 You got it. I think they were still using the H11 in the 2020 models. So, that might be a starting point for you. I did install LEDs in mine as well. They do however set off my tire inflation warming light (exactly 7 minutes after they come on). You can see that video here....ua-cam.com/video/gZvNUMNp-x4/v-deo.html
@@IamWedge
I have the convenience model without the tire thing.
@@firstchoicelastchoice28 Copy that. But if you do notice any warning light coming on after you install them, the. You might know the cause. I might add.... the DRL (Daytime Running Light) is another story. I did also switch those out with LED they are nice during the day. BUT, when you flip these on at night they do tend to spot light on the road and it takes a couple seconds for your eyes to readjust. It’s not the LEDs fault but the housings fault. The reflector is just too small. I ended up putting a Sylvania Ultra in there. I’ll forgive something out for them.
HOLT SHIT I DID IT!!!! ☺️
Glad to hear it @myka wine Good Job!
HaHAH!! 💥🎉
Nice material like and sub :)
Thanks @puh81 :)
This one is super easy but the low beam on my 2013 looks nothing like this. High beam is exactly as shown in this video.
Just a little design change. Were you able to swap out the bulb(s)?
You probably have the Xenon HID bulb for low beam. Mine has it on a 2017 outback 2.5i limited and I couldn’t find a video but it’s also easy to replace just harder to spot. Twist the housing cover to remove it, twist the square metal connector to remove it, then twist the bulb to remove it. The back of the bulb is round and flush to the surface. Looks like a cigarette lighter. You have to pinch two metal holding clips out of the way on each side to remove it. Phillips brand HID was $55 a bulb at the time of this posting. The only HID they had in stock at advanced auto was Sylvania and it was $180 😳
Explained well but you don’t show how to properly remove the light
There is no room for a camera and my hand in that area. You will see that starting position for the light seated is about 7-8 o'clock I did say to rotate counter-clockwise. Once you hear and feel it unlock, it's as simple as pulling the bulb out of the housing.
Talking about the guy driving around with one headlight. How about two? lol
Yes one went two weeks ago and now both are out happened on an hr drive home Friday night smh SCARY!!
That's why I always replace both of mine in pairs. The one that still works.... is a just in case lamp for the future. Did you drive home with high beams on? I hope you were able to get the light switched over no problem. :)
@@IamWedge yes new headligts thank you . video helped a lot. Now replacing C light and front sidemarkers. Watched video seems pretty easy but the battery part. Thanks again
My 2014 Crossrek has a cover over a ballast. Not like this video.
@Shassefras You have HID lights?
When one goes I always change both. Anyone else?
I too always replace in pairs. Keep that one for a spare. Nothing worse than driving with one eye at night. :)
