Easiest Renault Megane 2 headlight bulb replacement
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2024
- If I can replace the headlight light bulb without any experience, you can do it too, check the video how to do it by not using anything else than your hands, cell phone and knife. You don't need any special tools to do it! Don't need to open any screws or bolts, just a few hand tightened caps and that is it!
This may not be the easiest fix, but if you will watch my video you will be able to do this fix within 5 minutes. By the way cell phone camera maybe the most useful tool for this job!
Renault Megane creators and builders are good gynaecologists in their dreams.
BROTHER YOU ARE THE BEST, read my story pls, 3 different mechanics have failed because they didnt know about the holding clip, I’ve watched soo many videos and became extremely stressed, after watching this I did it in 10 mins 4:30am in the morning. Please don’t stop your videos I love you man❤
I'm amazed how you managed to record while you fitted the bulb 😆
Great video, thanks
Thxs
Thank you for this, it’s interesting reading other comments about the bulb life, as mine always seem to be breaking, I have even used Osram nightbreakers, and the only seem to last about one year! Another tip is to jack the car up so the wheel is just off the ground. The extra space from suspension travel makes it easier to get hands into the wheel arch.
Thanks mate! After many years this is the best way i found to show how easy it could be.
Thank you so much. This was the best tutorial I have ever seen. I'll give it a try tomorrow and let all know how it was.
thanks man, this was more helpful in showing it all than the other videos tbh
Thank you, sir, this was the best I could find. I couldn't have changed the bulb without it!
I lifted the front end of the car with the jack, and it made it even easier, thx for the good video
Very helpful for amateurs like me. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much just did it on mine *Everyone else who has the same problem it may be daunting at first but it is a easy fix*
Fácil o caramba!!!...nunca vi uma lâmpada tão ruim de trocar...mas obrigado pelo suor em fazer o video
Great help - i struggled in past to get the bulb(s) out ( i always got them out after long time some times hour plus of "wiggling" bulb) , your video is great as i never knew about the clip bit - just did bulb replacement in 10 minutes total thank to your great video - THANK YOU :-)
Holy crap. You saved my day man. great thanks!
Best video I've ever seen
Nice video. Glad the headlights have a screw cap rather than that nasty rubber push thing. It's a bitch to put that back on.
Fyi, avoid touching the glass of a halogen capsule. It can cause premature failure by hot spot damage.
Thanks, I've done this procedure a few times but it's been a long time and I forgot about the tabs. In fact, it's possible to grab the terminals with your hand and push in the direction of the tab to pop one side out, which is easier when you can't see what you're doing.
Thank you from Poland .
Great video very helpful thank you your video is so much better than reading the official manual and trying to make sense of there numbered diagrams. A+++++
Thank you GOOD MAN verry suportative and much apretiated !!!! WISH YOU ALL GOOD BROTHER YOU DESERVE IT !
What is the easiest and fastest way to replace the bulbs from the front turn signals from the passenger? Is there any easy way to do this?
Clear instructions thanks
Hi Kool video and looks much easier than I thought. I want to fit led lights on my Megane 2. Will led lights fit my headlamps? Thanks
did they fit?
Stevo Atkin did you fit them
Would also like to know!
I have 2008/9 Megane Sedan in this same color,and same problem with light,but I will take him to my mechanic,my hands are too big,plus I have problem with that smaller light at the same spot,recently chanched bulb and it worked for 3-4 days before it went out.
I noticed it was shining a lot brighter than it should be before it went out.
Sen adamın dibisin emeğine sağlık güzel bir video olmuş teşekkürler
lol - they couldn't have made it more difficult.
Coulnt more agree, but they have made some parts even more harder to replace, e.g. cabin vaentilator (blower)
If you've big hands/arms it's a lot worse
I always took the wheel off much easier
Renault Modus: Hold my champagne
@ferkemall Thankfully they made it much easier with the Grand Modus/Pre-facelift Modus.
Thank you for this video, helpful
Just thanks bro
put down the wheel and you get more space for work;)
Thank you for the Video. Very well done and explained. 👋🏼😊
tks for te video. Regards from Brazil
Grazie mille ho una lampadina bruciata della Megane e non sapevo come cambiarla ,ora grazie a te posso cambiarla grazieeeee
Thank you man super video ❤❤
Thank you for your effort
Super utile merci beaucoup !!
I found it much much easier to take the wheel off - it gives much better access
With years I have found that if you get skilled and used to replace that bulb, you can just pull it out with some force and save a lot of efort/time, however it wont fox the problem puting a new bulb in where you have to put it one way
tks a lot my friend
Its not the reflector/full beam ,or is it?
Great tips, thanks
I'd love to know the name of the chief designer responsible for this useless design.
On most cars it's easy access from engine bay less than a minute to do, and no cuts/scratches/grazes.
On the bloody Mégane, if you've got large hands/arms you cannot even fit your hand through the access hole.
You have to jack the car up, take off the wheel and wheel arch liner to get to the bulbs!!!
:D when u ll do it third time, (they burn out quickly even when you use gloves and dont touch the glass of the bulb), you ll can do it in 3 mins, even with closed eyes, but totally agree, kind a bad design, but could be even worse :D
Thanks brother
SUPER bravo maistre, mulțumesc
What kind of bulbs are good for this? type h7? can you recomend something good?
yes, you are right H7, 12V 55W, I am using Osram long life light bulbs, but you can try other brands too, however I m not sure if they ll be better.. make sure you avoid some sort of magical bulbs with a lot of promises from ebay etc, without a brand, bcos they tend to be not too good in all ways.. +if you want to extend a little bit light bulb lifetime, make sure you clean bulb glass well if you have touch it without gloves on ur hands, but that is about it.. to be honest those lightbulbs tend to burn out quick, at least once per 2 years so if you will have done this once by yourself, next time it will be a lot easier to do and for sure you will need to do it sooner or later :)
thank you
Bravo
I used a screwdriver 🪛 tip. A screwdriver that is about 7cm/3inch and a camera from a phone with a flashlight because you can't get you head in there with 2.3x zoom to see clearly what your doing.
You made a major mistake by touching the glass with your fingers. It leaves a fil of skin oil on the quarts glass that will overheat and cause the bulb to fail. When replacing halogen bulbs handle them only by the metal base. If you touch he glass you will need to clean it with isopropyl alcahol To remove any oils. Use a clean cotton cloth to clean the glass.
You have the alternate holder. I've got the annoying plastic one with the spring steel. Pain in the arse when it came to modifying for LEDs
That is way I made this video bcos in the beginning I thought the bulb is hold in the place by that spring and I couldn't find it where it should be and only after some unsuccessful blind tries I understood that there are two different holding mechanics for the same car!
I've just bought led's, what kind of modification is needed?
bridgendesar did you fit them
Hi All, Anybody has already tried to put instead of traditional halogen bulb, led bulb to low beam h7? Was the project image proper, could you please advice any product which is compatible? I have a 2008/12 Renault Megane II 1.4 16V. Thanks!
Thanks👍🏽
Спасибо тебе большое!
Thanks!
Little bit tricky but not impossible if you relatively small hands
Thanks a lot!!!!
Cheers didn’t realise clips held the bulb in 🤔
Thanks man!
Tök jó videó pont a lényeget nem mutattad
2:08 how do you even see it? I cannot see it at all. I can touch it but i don't see the pin.
What about Laguna 2?? Does anyone had video (link) to that procedure? Thanks
How come the adjustment was messed up when I replaced the bulb? How can I repair/replace the electric height adjustment?
Make sure you have pushed it completlely back in, because if it is not the beam wont be correct. Other possibility is that light bulb it self is bad quality, ive seen this, once ordered from ebay some sort of extra bright one and it was impossible to get the light beam right.. worst case scenario, u have pushed the light bulb too hard and have moved the socket...
@@JUrtanschannel Thanks for your quick reply, I will check it.
Good video
Hi can you tel me please how old is your Scenic ?
Thomas Bowler sorry, I have 10+ years old Megane 2, but lightbulb socket might be similar
Merci
Ingenious position for switch 😜😜🤪🤪🤪
take care about the fingers fat in the bulb that can burn the light
Do you need to disconnect the battery or is it okay to keep it plug in.
1Welshdylan it is always safer to disconnect the battery, but I personally wouldnt worry about it as long as u are not running car or ur lights are off while u are changing the light bulb.
Thanks very helpful.
How do I change the indicator light on that side???? Please someone help.
Are you made it i have the same problem😃
mmm the lock mechanism on H7 socket (low beam) is different from the Megane sold in Brazil...
there are two different mechanisms and on the youtube there are a lot of videos with the other mechanism, but almost none with this one, this is why I made the video.
Low beam is H1 not H7
O.M.G. !
Driver side. 5 min And Done, but my arm Is broken 😂
Instalația electrică plină de probleme made in Turcia un dezastru am aceași problema cu acest ucu tablou electric la reno megen 2 1.4 16v benzina ac.nu mai merge se aude un țăcănit și accelerația creste și scade iar ventilatorul de răcire motor nu se oprește bag cartela dau start și pornește radiatorul asta la un tablou electric de secand hend la cel original nu mai pornea deloc am schimbat și cartela am luat noua
👍
It dosen't aply to passanger side though
Did you find a solution for passenger side?
helpful, but do not touch the lightbulb
What were they thinking when they made the car...
Thinking about frogs dinner.
My Megane 2 of 2005 has hole lower and different holder 🙄
Are you from USA?
@@JUrtanschannel nope Europe but my previous Megane 2 had same hole as you but removing the plastic is okay with this one i have now trying installing led so i dont need to get behind it again😂👍
French cars😮
and what about a right side light, it's not that easy to change bulb, you need to dismantle front bumper
I ve replaced it a few times now, you dont have to take down bumper, same principle, there is plenty of space for hand! :) if you have done it once, you will can do it every time quicker and quicker, + if you have a phone with camera and flashlight, it is really not too hard!
The french are mad.
Pins,2 fucking pins...why haven't i seen this video erarlier???? Omg....man,i broke every bulb trying to get them out,not to mention it took me hours,i didn't know about those stupid pins,i tought you just had to pull them out with brute force...wow fuck me i guess...
MPC/ HD if you're having to put brute force into anything to do with bulbs, blades or batteries then you're doing it wrong.
You can get to it to change it from the top!!!!!
don't buy Renault
hdckdsadd dont tell me what to do bitch
Stupid technology...
What an utterly ridiculous design
