Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the two self-tapping screws securing the flashlight. Remove the light from the hole in the rear bumper. We slide the protective rubber cap off the flashlight and disconnect the tips of the two wires from the terminals of the flashlight. Use your finger to press the latch... ...and remove the flashlight lens. Remove the lamp from the lantern housing. We install the new C5W lamp in the reverse order. Similarly, we change the lamp in the other license plate light.
Replacing the license plate lamp on a Chevrolet Niva will not cause much difficulty even for novice car enthusiasts. The lampshades are screwed on with two self-tapping screws, they are very easy to reach, and all we need is a Phillips screwdriver.
What lamps are used
The factory equips the car with standard lamps with a 12V/5W C5W base. And if the lamp burns out, you can replace it with the following:
If the installed lamp causes an error on the dashboard, then it must be replaced with an LED with a blende, an example would be the MTF company and its price for the entire set is around one thousand rubles.

Instructions for replacing license plate lamps
So, two backlights are located in the recesses of the rear bumper, but getting to them will not be difficult.
Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew the screws securing the lampshade. If they are rusty, spray them with any penetrating lubricant or WD40 and wait.
After unscrewing the two screws, take out the lampshade and disconnect the power wires from it.
The lampshade is in our hands. Gently press the latch and remove the diffuser.
We take out the old lamp, clean the lampshade and diffuser if necessary, and install a new lamp. It is very important that the lampshade is sealed and no moisture gets into it. If necessary, it can be coated with silicone sealant.
This completes the lamp replacement.

Location and appearance of the part
Not all drivers know where the Niva Chevrolet starter relay is located. For this brand it is located on the left side for ease of maintenance . You need to look for it near the steering column. You need to look below the dashboard. The relay dimensions are small. Feature: the element is created in such a way that it cannot be removed. Visually, the starter relay resembles a small box (its color is black).
There are various reasons for breakdowns:
- contacts are burnt out;
- worn out from time or duration of use;
- parts inside the mechanism were destroyed.
If the starter relay is broken, I report the following malfunctions::
- characteristic buzzing under the hood. It begins when the engine starts;
- the starter works, but the engine does not start;
- The starter makes clearly audible clicks, but does not start.
How to change the license plate lamp in a Chevrolet Niva yourself
And if the lamp burns out, you can replace it with the following: If the installed lamp provokes an error on the dashboard, then it is necessary to replace the Chevrolet Niva license plate lamp with an LED lamp with blende, an example would be the MTF company and its price for the entire set is around one thousand rubles.
How to replace This light is located above the license plate in a small recess in the rear bumper, and you can get to it without any difficulty.
We take a Phillips screwdriver and use it to unscrew the two screws that hold the lampshade lighting in place. If they are covered with corrosion and are difficult to unscrew, they can be sprayed with an anti-corrosion agent, for example, WD40. After the rust has corroded, unscrew the screws located above the license plate, then remove the lamp from the hole and disconnect the power wire from it. When we have the element in our hands, carefully We press the latch on it, and we remove the diffuser. We take out the old lamp from there, if necessary, clean the diffuser with the lampshade, and install a new bulb there.
In order for the work to be done, it is necessary to take into account such differences. Use a screwdriver to pry off the cover in the handle that closes the trunk. Despite the resistance provided by the latches, open the lid. Using a Phillips screwdriver, unscrew both screws that secure the handle and remove. Using the same screwdriver, unscrew the pins that secure the upholstery in the trunk lid and remove them, after which the upholstery is removed.
Relay and fuse box:
Please note that in the schematic diagram of the block, two rows of fuses are located at the bottom, and the relay is at the top. Under the panel cover, the fuses will be located opposite the top, so do not confuse the numbering. If you notice a discrepancy in the numbering of fuses or relays, then you have a different Chevrolet Niva model, newer or older, in this case, find the corresponding diagram and troubleshoot using it.
K1 - Relay for monitoring the health of lamps.
K2 - Windshield wiper relay . If the wipers do not work, check this relay and fuse F9. If they are working properly, the problem may be in the wiper motor, its brushes, mechanism and gears, as well as in the interior switch and its contacts.
K3 - Relay-breaker for direction indicators and hazard warning lights . If the turn signals do not work, check fuses F16, F19 and this relay. Also check the contact of the wire going to ground. Located to the left of the fuse box, in the back (to access you need to remove the mounting block panel).
Another issue could be the steering column switch, its contacts and connector. If the emergency lights do not work, check the button for turning it on, its contacts, as well as the lamps in the turn signals; there may be a short circuit somewhere or the lamps have burned out.
K4 - Low beam headlight relay . If the low beam in one of the headlights does not work, check fuses F2 and F12, as well as the lamps in the headlights themselves. If both low beam headlights do not work, check this relay, as well as the light switch and its contacts. Also note that the low beam headlights only work when the ignition is on.
K5 - Headlight high beam relay . If the high beam in one of the headlights does not work, check fuses F3 and F13, as well as the lamps themselves. If both high beam headlights do not work, check this relay, as well as the steering column switch and its contacts.
K6 - Additional relay.
If you have problems turning on the ignition, check this relay, as well as the contacts in the ignition switch and the contact group.
K7 - Rear window heating relay . If the rear window fogs up and its heating does not work, check this relay and fuses F8 and F9, the power button and its contacts, as well as the contacts on the terminals to the elements on the rear window (to get to them, you will most likely have to remove the trunk door trim).
It also happens that the mounting block board itself melts under the specified fuses, because the load when turning on the heating of the side mirrors and rear window is large. In this case, you need to inspect the damage to the board, and it is possible to replace the entire fuse box assembly. To prevent failure of the circuit board and fuses, do not forget to turn off the heated rear window when not needed. The wire under the left threshold could also have frayed.
K8 - Backup relay.
