Lamps used on cars | Operating instructions for AVTOVAZ Lada Kalina | Page 90 / 96

Hello everyone, today I want to show you how I changed the headlight bulb on a Lada Kalina car.

In fact, there is nothing complicated about replacing a headlight bulb. Let's say that changing a low beam light bulb is much more problematic. So, let's begin. First you need to open the hood. Then go to the headlight where the bulb burned out. And remove the rubber plug.

Next, we take out the light bulb with the socket and take out the burnt-out light bulb. There is no need to disconnect any wires.

After that, we take a new light bulb of the same size and install it back; if you wish, you can install a diode. I installed it once and, in principle, I did not find any differences, that ordinary lamps burn out and diode ones.

After installing the light bulb, check whether it lights up.

If everything is fine, then insert the light bulb with the socket back into the headlight socket and close it with a rubber plug. Well, that's it, close the hood. The replacement of the headlight bulb was successful. Bye everyone.

What kind of lamps are there in Kalina?

Note. * The number of lamps depends on the vehicle configuration.

Heading optics contains 4 lamps

Let's look at how the directional optics, that is, the front headlight, is designed. The block contains four compartments, each of which contains one element:

• High beam lamp (H1);
• Low beam lamp (H7);
• Combined lamp for running lights and “dimensions” (W21/5W);
• Turn signal lamp (P21W yellow - PY21W).

The standard size of the element is indicated in parentheses.

If we talk about low and high beams, standard power lamps (55 watts) are installed from the factory. It is not recommended to greatly exceed this value. Lighting fixtures of sizes H1-H7 look like this:

H1 – high beam, H7 – low beam

When making a purchase, the main thing is not to confuse an H7 lamp with a halogen lamp of a similar size (H4). Also, some companies produce 24-volt lighting devices.

When replacing halogen light sources, adhere to the following rules: do not touch the glass with hands without gloves; it is recommended to degrease the lampshade before installation. “Secunda” is suitable as a cleaner.

The following text shows the side and running lights:

There will be two filaments in the headlight bulb and DRL

Its standard size is W21/5W. Well, the turn signal bulbs in the directional optics use standard ones. They are equipped with a metal base, their standard size is P21W (PY21W).

The yellow lampshade looks like orange

Step-by-step replacement instructions

To replace the side light bulbs on Kalina, perform the following sequence of actions:

1. The hood opens and a large rubber plug located closer to the center of the car is removed from the inside of the headlight.

   
   The plug is easy to spot due to its size

2. This opens access to the side light bulb located below the low beam source.

   
   It holds quite firmly in its nest, so sometimes you have to use pliers to pull it out

3. A new one is installed to replace the failed marker lamp.

   
   Connecting a new lamp is not difficult

To ensure a long service life of lighting sources, you should purchase only high-quality products from trusted manufacturers. Counterfeit products break down very quickly.

step-by-step instructions, features and recommendations :: SYL.ru

Your vehicle's side lights must be in good working order for it to drive safely on the road. But not every driver changes burnt-out lamps immediately. This is usually done when visiting a service station, and before that you can drive hundreds of kilometers without working lamps. Let's figure out how to replace the side light bulb on some domestic and foreign cars. Often the work is carried out according to a similar principle, but there are also minor differences.

General information

To indicate the vehicle at night when parked, the design provides side lights. They are present both in front and behind the car. Usually these are low-power lamps, which, unlike the head light, are not in the focus of the reflector. For this simple reason, it makes no sense to install more powerful halogen or LED lamps. Moreover, this can lead to melting of the wiring, which is not designed to withstand such a large load.

How to choose good lamps

It is not enough to replace a faulty element in a car; you also need to select the right spare part. Light bulbs are no exception. The auto parts market offers a large selection of lighting devices from a variety of manufacturers with appropriate quality.

Conventionally, lamps can be divided into three categories:

• Good lamps should last a long time, but don't have to be expensive. Quite good manufacturers, such as Philips, Osram, etc., sell affordable lighting devices with standard characteristics. The price of one lamp, for example, with an H1 base is, on average, 102 rubles. In this case, the characteristics will be averaged, as on standard lamps with, “Dialuch” and other lamps, on the packaging of which you can find Chinese characters, are cheap low-quality light sources. The illumination is worse, and the service life can sometimes exceed the operating time of even the most expensive lamps.
• A separate category of light sources are expensive light bulbs or, as they are commonly called, high-brightness lamps. Trivial examples are: Osram Nigth Breaker +110 or Philips Racing Vision +150. In fact, the brightness of such lamps is actually higher, since they operate in overheating mode. But durability is less. You can also include LED lamps and xenon, as this is a kind of optics tuning.

When it comes to choosing a lamp, we always think of light sources for low beam headlights or PTF. For other luminaires, lamps are selected with much lesser requirements.

Selecting an original light bulb based on the article number is expensive. It’s much easier to go into a store and tell the salesperson about the type of base so that he can give you the right light source.

• on the headlight glass;
• on the plastic housing under the hood.

On older car models, the code is found on the underside of the body. To view all the information, you must completely dismantle and turn over the light device. The designation of the car is found in the form of stickers, which come off over time, after which they cannot be restored.

LED optics

On public highways, cars with LED light sources are increasingly being seen. Marked ice lenses cover a large area of ​​the road and can last more than 10,000 hours.

Many car owners are interested in the question of what is the marking of LED headlights from the factory and whether it is possible to independently install diodes instead of halogen or xenon. Optics with diodes have the inscription HCR, indicating conventional halogen lamps. However, the code for all reflectors and lenses additionally contains the LED prefix, and their design is significantly different.

In daytime running lights, the lamp is built into the housing without any markings. The location of the lights is regulated by the transport safety guidelines.

Knowing the location of the markings allows you not only to detect the replacement of a headlight due to an accident, but also to protect yourself from fines by using the right lamps.

How to legally install LED bulbs in headlights?

According to the law, if you make changes to the design of the car, then you have the right to operate the car on public roads only after going through a certain procedure in legalizing the installed equipment in the traffic police and in specialized organizations.

We discussed in more detail how to formalize the conversion of a car in the article “Fine for gas equipment in a car.” Let us recall that in this article we examined the process of legalizing the installation of gas equipment on a vehicle.

When installing LED lamps in a car, you will first need to re-equip the headlights in a specialized organization, which will install the appropriate lenses and other equipment in them that will provide the LED lighting with an optimal beam of light projected onto the road.

Also, to legally register LED optics, you need to obtain permission to re-equip the car.

In particular, after installing / altering the headlights in a specialized organization, you must register the re-equipment of the car with the State Traffic Safety Inspectorate and obtain a certificate of compliance of the vehicle with the changes made to its design in accordance with safety requirements.
