Headlights — removal, installation and adjustment (Opel Frontera A)

Frontera headlights provide high and low beam. The parking light lamps are located in the housing of the main headlights.

Removal and installation headlight bulbs

1. Open the hood, press the spring latch on the back of the headlight and remove the cover.

2. Disconnect the three-pin plug from the back of the headlight. Now you can see the bulb held in place by the wire clamp.

3. Squeeze the ends of the clamp to remove it.

4. Remove the lamp by holding it by the contacts.

5. Take the new lamp with a clean cloth. Do not touch the lamp with your hands, as this may leave marks on the lamp.

6. Insert the new two-filament lamp so that its retaining nose on the base fits into the groove of the reflector hole. In this case, the middle of the three contacts should be located at the top of the lamp base.

Further assembly is carried out in the reverse order of removal. Finally, it is necessary to check the headlight adjustment (as a rule, it does not change).

Removal and installation headlights

1. If the headlight range control is available, set the adjustment switch to the "0" position and then turn off the headlight.

2. Remove the radiator grille.

3. Disconnect the headlight bulb multi-plug connection from the inside of the engine compartment (having removed the lid first).

4. If the headlights have a range adjustment, remove the servo as described below.



5. Remove the two bolts and remove the headlight from its mount in the front trim.



The headlight is installed in the reverse order of removal. Adjust the position of the headlight.
