Install headlight bulb 2004 nissan maxima




















Start with your hood open and remove two clips. One here using flat blade screwdriver, pry up on the center, then pull the clip up and out. Now, this is free, same thing here on this side, pry up on the center. Up underneath in front of the wheels are two Phillip screws. You want to remove those and then you kind of pull this out.

Pull your inner fender, like that, and you can pull this back, you can see the back of your side light. It's hard to film but there's the connection. Right here, there's a tab on the outside. Pull that tab and disconnect it. Now, up inside there's a 10mm bolt that you want to remove. Also, if you reach your hand over further up in you'll feel another one of those bolts. Generally, I found the best tool is a socket with an extension and ratchet. I'm just going to fast forward to removing those two bolts and obviously again I'm doing this on the passenger side, you want to repeat the same procedure on the other side.

There are a series of the pins like on top and there are 6 right across here, looks like this vehicle has been apart because it only has 2 of the original ones. One's missing there and then it's got kind of a different style over here. The other option is you can take this apart up here which has the same thing, series of pins. I even see on this vehicle it actually got a bolt here and no pins here. It looks like they may have actually super glued this together. Now, fast forward here again as I'm pulling the clips out just like on top, you pry the center out and then pull the clip down.

On the bottom they're a little more difficult usually, because sand and dirt has gotten in and it makes the clip difficult to get apart. You'll probably need a screwdriver as well as a pair of needle nose pliers. Once you've got those fasteners off just pull firmly on each side, out, real firm. Grab it by the sides here.

Just pull forward and the whole face comes off. There are 5 bolts to remove, one here, here, and right up under, right there, then another one here and one on the side here. Fast forward here as I use a 10mm socket with a ratchet and extension to remove those 5 bolts. Now, pull the light forward, high up and out and now there is a connector which I'm grabbing onto, it has tab, press down firmly on the tab and allow it to disconnect it.

Then pull out. It's here on the bench. To change any bulbs, your main headlight bulb is here. Turn this counter clockwise and then pull out. There are two locks, one here. Press in towards the center of light. This one, the same thing and then your bulb comes out. Now, when you're putting a new bulb in you want to very careful not to touch the glass at all. I'm going to remove this one and put it back in.

You can see that my original one is in fine shape. You want to press down, turn counter clockwise and then pull out, and then you want to put it back the same way. Push down and clockwise to lock, hear it click and I put it in just like that. Take your locks and then you push them in towards the center, back in and latch them and then take this simply.

Just make sure it's got one larger tab which goes on the side here and then it locks into place. This is the turn signal indicator up here just turn it counter clockwise, pull it out, push down on this bulb and pull it out and re-install the same way, and clockwise to lock.

This is your fog light bulb here. Turn counter clockwise, this pulls out, your bulb is down in here. There's a little latch here. Push it in, out. The bulb comes out. You take this out of the cap here and carefully grab as high up on here as you can, shake it back and forth and disconnect.

Replace that bulb, reconnect it. Put your connector back in here. Latch it into place. This bulb has a round cut-out and a square cut-out, they correspond in here.
