Installing fog lights on Lada Priora: step-by-step instructions

Installation of fog lights on Priora

Installing a PTF does not require special knowledge and skills from you, the main thing is to acquire the necessary list of tools and strictly follow the instructions below.

To install you will need:

• Keys for "10" - "13".
• Flat/Phillips screwdrivers.
• Heat shrink.
• To insulate the wiring - corrugation.
• Regular pliers.
• Insulating tape.

Step-by-step installation instructions for LADA Priora PTF:

• We open the engine compartment and make sure that the negative terminal of the battery is removed without fail. We dismantle the wipers and frill; for this purpose we use the key set to “13”.
• Using the 2nd key, remove the bracket and expansion tank. This is necessary for the convenience of work, and removing/installing these units is not at all difficult.
• The front bumper is attached with 10 screws. We unscrew them all.
• Use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the fasteners of the plastic plug. We put the headlights in their standard places and fasten them securely with self-tapping screws so that they don’t come loose when shaking from driving.
• At this stage we begin to do the wiring. For this purpose, we hide the wires in corrugation in order to prevent chafing and fasten the wires so that the contacts do not come off.
• We take the longest one from the set of wires; it is always blue. We divide the wire into 2 ends and connect one end to the left headlight, and the other to the right one, respectively. Next, we extend the wire into the engine compartment, or rather into the area of ​​the main brake cylinder.
• Using a flat-head screwdriver, we pull off the interior trim of the LADA Priora and insert a wire into the interior.
• Already in the cabin we connect the wire to the safety block.
• At the end of the work done, we install everything in its place and carry out the adjustment of the fogs, which was mentioned above.

We install the button in the cabin, power the circuit

Follow these steps on your LADA Priora to connect the fog light button in the cabin:

• The negative terminal is removed from the battery.
• The steering column is disassembled, which is secured with 3 special plastic latches; they should be rotated 90 degrees.
• We find the safety block. Unscrew the screw holding it in place.
• We disassemble the center console; for this purpose you need to unscrew the 4th screw. In place of the plug, we install a button on/off the fog lights and connect the blue wire directly to the mounting block, or via a relay.
• Using clamps, connect the remaining wires to the rear window heating button.

How to install PTF correctly, and why do you need to replace standard lamps?

Fog lights on Priora, as well as on any other car, are installed quite low, at a level of 0.3-0.7 meters from the road level. In this case, a narrow beam of light enters an area free of wet condensation and actually improves visibility.

But located on the roof of the trunk (additional lighting is often installed on jeeps), they are absolutely useless in a curtain of rain, in fog or during a dust storm. Therefore, fog lights used to be placed under the bumper (for old-style metal structures), but today they are placed directly into it (for modern integrated parts).

Fog lamps must comply not only with traffic regulations, but also comply with UNECE standards. The latter suggest that the fog beam on the Priora and any other car must have a special wide-angle light distribution, with a clearly defined upper limit and dispersion of up to 70 degrees horizontally. Only compliance with these parameters gives the required anti-fog effect.

The most common today are fog lights with halogen lamps with a power of 55 watts. They create a luminous flux of 1.1 thousand lumens, which is enough to illuminate a space of 25-30 meters in front of the car.

Replacing conventional incandescent lamps with them is almost always required, because... old-style lamps provide the necessary illumination at a distance of about 8-10 meters, which is clearly not enough for modern driving conditions.

Step by step guide

1. Unscrew 3 screws on both sides in the wheel arch.

2. Unscrew the top plastic covers on both sides near the headlights and remove. They are secured with four screws each.

3. Unscrew 2 more screws securing the bumper in the area of ​​the hood lock.

4. If you have built-in fog lights, then disconnect the power connectors from them.

5. Next, in the engine protection area, unscrew five nuts by ten.

6. At the corners of the bumper, unscrew three screws on each side.

7. Pull the bumper off the latches starting from the arch.

After all the latches have opened, remove the bumper.

When replacing a bumper, you need to replace the radiator grille, lower plastic grille and fog lights (if equipped) with a new one from the old one.

The radiator grille is secured with eleven metal latches. The latches are removed using a screwdriver.

The lower plastic grille is secured to twelve metal latches, the same as those on the grille mount.

The fog lights are secured with Phillips screws.

Installation of PTF

Priora needs to be driven into the inspection hole and checked whether all the necessary components for modernization are at hand:

• PTF and wiring kit.
• Pliers.
• Set of screwdrivers and keys.

Installing headlights

1. We disconnect the negative terminal from the battery and move on to the front bumper fastenings - the screws are located on the top, bottom and side. Remove the Lada Priora bumper;
2. Let's move on to the plugs. They are attached using several self-tapping screws; here it will be most convenient to work with a short Phillips screwdriver;
3. It is necessary to place the fog lights in the places where the plugs were. For fastening, you can use self-tapping screws from the plugs;
4. Now we need to find the longest wire in the set. We connect it to the left headlight, and then to the right one and pull it from the battery side into the engine compartment;
5. With the “tenth” key we dismantle both tanks of the Lada Priora, with the 13th key we unscrew the fastenings of the wipers;
6. We need to get to the left edge of the upholstery, to do this we need to remove the protection. The hose must be moved to the side, loosen the clamp;
7. Now the upholstery can be completely removed;
8. Our task is to pull the headlight wiring through the plug into the Priora’s interior and secure the wires with the clamp that comes in the kit;
9. We assemble Lada components in reverse order. Wires must be connected to the crankcase protection bolts.

Electrical connections in the cabin

Under the steering column of the Lada, you need to remove the protective plastic - turn the three latches 90 degrees; Under the safety block you will see a self-tapping screw - unscrew it and pull out the block. The PTF kit includes instructions that contain a detailed connection diagram;

Now let's move on to the central panel. Take out the plug and the button for turning on the heated rear window, you will find these elements to the left of the clock; Take the PTF button from the kit. The blue wire goes to the safety block, the rest need to be connected to the heating button - you can do this using the clamps that come in the kit. Here is the connection diagram:

We need to install the PTF relay in the block

It is important here not to confuse: connect the wires coming from the hood to F18 and F17, also connect the yellow wire to these sockets, black and red go to A86 and A30, insert the fuses from F18, F17, connect the blue wire to A. Understand The diagram will help you with this.

Installation of PTF on Lada Priora is completed. All that remains is to assemble the parts and connect the negative terminal to the battery. The fog lights only work when the ignition is on. You should only install the dashboard covers when you are sure that the optics are working properly. All that remains is to adjust the headlights; for this, a standard scheme is used.

Standard PTF Priora 1 and 2: article number, price

AvtoVAZ installs fog lights on Lada Priora from Bosch and Avtosvet (Kirzhach). The difference is that Bosch is 40% larger in installation depth than fog lights from Kirzhach. Lighting equipment from BOSCH was installed in luxury versions, and from Kirzhach - in standard ones. Two options for the kit are being considered. The first set is a PTF for Priora 1 (pre-restyling), the second is for Priora 2 (restyling). The difference is the shape of the headlights and installation points. PTFs are sold complete or separately.

For Priora 1:

• PTF set of Kirzhach “Avtosvet” 21700-3743010-52. Price – about 700-800 rubles. One headlight costs about 500 rubles.
• PTF kit Bosch 21700-3743010-54. Price – about 1600-1900 rubles. One headlight costs about 900 rubles.

For Priora 2:

• PTF set Kirzhach “Avtosvet” 21700-3743010-53. Price – about 800-900 rubles. One headlight costs about 500 rubles.
• PTF kit Bosch 21700-3743010-50. Price – about 1000-1200 rubles. One headlight costs about 600 rubles.

Law and GOST

It is necessary to take into account one of the important points when installing PTF is subsequent adjustment and LAW. According to traffic rules, lighting equipment should not blind cars moving in the opposite direction. To do this, it is imperative to adjust the headlights.

It is prohibited to install lamps not specified by the manufacturer, such as xenon and LED. PTF priors must have H11 type halogen lamps installed.

Adjustment

You managed to install the PTFs, but in order for them to perform their task, they must be configured. Place the Lada Priora on a flat surface. There should be a wall opposite the front bumper; motorists usually use a garage for this. Check the tire pressure - it should be the same.

Now you need to measure the distance from the ground to the middle of the headlight. On the wall, draw an even strip corresponding to the distance from the coating to the middle of the PTF. Draw another strip 5 cm below, the top one can be erased. The fog lights need to be adjusted so that the upper limit of the light is located on the horizontal line that we drew on the surface. As you can see, the headlight adjustment scheme is quite simple.

Lamps in foglights

The effectiveness of PTF in foggy conditions is determined by several factors. Their low placement, different range, and direction of the light flux make it possible to illuminate only the road surface itself, without affecting the surrounding area, like high-beam headlights. This allows you to see the road even in heavy fog, which completely scatters the light of the headlights, creating a snow-white wall in front of the car.

How to connect fog lights on Lada Priora?

When there is not much left in stock, you just have to disassemble everything and install the PTF, then put everything back together and enjoy the work done. Kidding :-).

1. Let's start with the fact that we need to de-energize everything, to do this we remove the “-” terminal of the battery.
2. Next, you need to remove the bumper; to do this, unscrew the screws that secure it one by one. The screws that need to be unscrewed are marked in the photo. After all the fasteners are unscrewed, carefully unclip the bumper from the latches and dismantle it completely.

1. Next, take a screwdriver and remove the foglight plugs, which are attached with self-tapping screws.

We prepare our fog lights and proceed to an important stage called “installation of fog lights.” We carefully place the PTFs in their regular places and secure them with the screws that secured the plugs

Then we start laying the wiring. The wiring is routed from the inside of the bumper; it is advisable to use corrugated wire.

1. The wires need to be pulled into the cabin in the GTZ area; to do this, we take out a special plug, under which the holes we need are hidden. For convenience, it is recommended to remove the frill along with the wipers, as well as the expansion tank with bracket.

1. In the cabin, in order to extend and connect the fog lights, you should pull off the trim (sound insulation) and pull the wire into the cabin.

1. When the wires are brought into the interior, you can start connecting. The diagram according to which it should be connected is usually included with the PTF kit, but just in case I decided to post the diagram.

Connecting the fog lights to the button requires the removal of the central panel.

When installing the PTF relay in the unit, it is important not to mix up the wires and follow the PTF connection diagram.

Installing fog lights on a Lada Priora is quite an extraordinary task and can be done by any car enthusiast. The only problem is the connection; as a rule, difficulties arise with it. However, if you follow the instructions and carefully study the connection diagram, then everything should work out. If difficulties arise during the connection, I recommend contacting an experienced electrician, he will easily help you for a minimal fee. Before final assembly, do not forget to check everything and make sure that the PTFs are working as they should.

That’s all for me, thank you for your attention and see you again at VAZ Repair! Bye!

PTFs are installed on the Priora to improve the standard light when driving through dark sections of the road or in fog, they are simply necessary. Fog lights on the Priora are a privilege of luxury trim levels. Lada Priora was produced in 2 bumper design options: restyling SE, pre-restyling, so the part number is different - more about it below. In all other, empty configurations of the Priora car, plugs are installed in place of the PTF, which over time you want to replace with fog lights. Usually this moment comes when the driver drives his car for the first time through dense fog - so that visibility is minimal, it’s scary to drive, but it’s necessary. In such cases, the emergency lights turn on, movement should be slow and careful - and if there were fog lights, the driver would feel more confident.

Connecting the PTF is done in 7-8 steps; if you wish, you can do it yourself in the garage - read about it in this article.

The turning point leads to the choice between lens PTFs in the Priora and LED PTFs. One way or another, when driving in conditions of insufficient visibility, the light will become much larger. The driver will do everything possible to fulfill his duty to ensure traffic safety. But the fulfillment of this duty will have to be supported.

Installing fog lights on a Priora

Fog lights are necessary in poor visibility conditions: fog, heavy rain. Their main feature is the distribution of light flux over the road and along the edges, which significantly improves visibility in bad weather.

The basic configuration of the Priora does not include fog lights. They should be installed to increase traffic safety on the road. Fog lights improve visibility not only for the driver on whose car they are installed, but also for all other road users.

Prices for headlights and work

Installing headlights in the showroom (where you buy a car) will cost 2,000 - 3,000 rubles, plus the price of fog lights is 2,600 rubles, which is much more expensive than in a store. Installation of fog lights in a car service center averages from 1,500 to 2,000 rubles. You can buy headlights yourself.

It is not necessary to pay money for installation, because fog lights can be installed on your own.

The price of a set of fog lights varies from 1200 to 1800 rubles. For headlights you need to purchase a connection kit - 400 rubles.

Installation

The car must be driven onto an overpass or pit, and the following kit must be prepared:

• PTF and installation kit;
• keys for 10, 13;
• crosshead screwdriver;
• pliers.

1. Disconnect the ground from the battery to prevent a short circuit.
2. We unscrew the bumper fastenings (several screws on the side, bottom and top), and remove it.
3. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the screws holding the plugs. It is advisable to use a short Phillips screwdriver.
4. We insert the headlights into the places where the plugs were. We fasten with the same self-tapping screws.
5. We take a long wire from the kit, insert it into the right headlight, then into the left one and pull it into the engine compartment from the battery side.
6. Remove the washer tank using a 10mm wrench, then the expansion tank.
7. Using the key to 13, we eliminate the wipers.
8. We unscrew the protective plastic to gain access to the left edge of the upholstery.
9. Loosen the clamp and remove the hose.
10. We remove the upholstery.
11. We stretch the wires along the standard wiring through the plug into the car interior and fasten them with clamps included in the kit.
12. We assemble all the parts in reverse order. Don't forget to connect the two black wires to the outermost bolts of the crankcase guard.
13. Let's go to the car interior. Remove the protective cover under the steering column. To do this, turn 3 locks 90 degrees.
14. Using a screwdriver, unscrew the self-tapping screw, which is located under the fuse block. We take out the block.
15. From the center console, remove the rear window heating button and the plug. They are located to the left of the clock.
16. From the set we take out the button with wires. We stretch the long blue wire to the fuse block, and connect the remaining three to the heated rear window button using the clips included in the kit. We connect everything according to the color scheme.
17. We insert the relay for the fog lights included in the kit into the fuse box. We connect the wires according to the diagram:

• long blue to A85;
• red and black to 30 and 86;
• yellow wire from 87 with two outputs to F17, F18;
• we take the previously passed wires from under the engine compartment and connect them to F17, F18;
• We insert two fuses from the kit into sockets F17, F18.

Collecting elements. We connect the ground to the battery, turn on the ignition and check the serviceability of the fog lights (the fog lamps will only work when the ignition is on).

Adjusting the fog lights

When the installation is complete, you are convinced that the fog lights are operational, it’s time to move on to adjusting them:

We park the car on a flat surface, it is important that there is a wall, a garage door or something like that in front. Check to see if the tire pressure is the same. We measure the distance from the middle of the headlight to the asphalt (ground). Subtract 5 cm from the distance of the headlights to the floor, draw a strip on the wall corresponding to this value. We turn on the fog lights and adjust them so that the upper limit of the light flux is on a horizontal line.

Bottom line

At this point the adjustment can be considered complete. Now you will be sure that you will not inconvenience anyone with the wrong direction of the light.

Fog lights significantly improve visibility on the road at night, as well as in bad weather conditions. Not only will you make it easier for yourself, but other drivers will also see you better. The main thing is not to forget to adjust them.

Societies › Lada Priora Club › Blog › Who installed xenon in fog lights

I'm thinking about installing xenon foglights on my Priorka. In this regard, several questions arose:

1. Who did it, tell me how (links to blog posts are welcome)

2. How much does this business cost?

3. What you need to buy

4. What tasks may arise during operation

5. How difficult is it to do all this and can a new person do it?

Thanks in advance for your help!

you buy h21 xenon in the store. costs about 2 thousand, not bad. take off the bumper. look for a place for the blocks, attach it. insert xenon into the fog lights. connect the wires and enjoy

Is it possible to install it so that the bumper does not need to be removed?

4. What obstacles may arise during operation?

Only one so far, the light bulb is burned out, I can’t buy a new one, I drive like one-eyed)

Replacing the light bulb in the fog light of LADA PRIORA

Hi all! This video will talk about replacing the light bulb in the fog light on a LADA PRIORA

How it was filmed...

Test of LED lamps h21 in PTF. Choose which is brighter LED or Halogen

Buy Led lamps CL6 H8,H9,h21...

There are no problems. You buy fog lights, auto lights are better, Bosch often sweat, they cost me 1700. You buy a set of xenon lights with an H11 base, our set costs 1700-2000. You buy wiring for connecting fog lights for 500 rubles, if you don’t know anything about electrics, then go to an electrician so that he can connect the wiring and remove the button. Install the fog lights yourself, remove the bumper, unscrew the plugs and screw the fog lights in their place. The ignition units can be screwed to the lower headlight mounting brackets. When connecting fogs, do not forget to connect the ground and do not confuse the polarity.

I think the base would be h21, maybe I don’t understand it naturally, but I had one on the Boche.

Thanks for the instructions)

I had a problem, the lamps did not fit into the socket, but Ratfil solved the problem. Now on bumps one lamp turns off, my fault is that the block is not fixed, otherwise everything is trivial there))))

There is nothing complicated, the main thing is that the arms grow from a suitable place))

Installing PTF on Kalina

Kalina is equipped with PTF in the Lux configuration (usually sold with covers for the sockets in the bumper). You will also need: a relay, wires, a PTF power button or an external lighting control unit (for Kalina luxury equipment).

We remove the bumper and remove the plugs from it. We fasten each PTF with three self-tapping screws. To extend the headlight power cable into the Kalina's interior, it is better to remove the left front wheel and the arch protection (fender liners).

We tighten the headlight power wires with connectors to the front of Kalina opposite the place where the PTF will be. We screw the minus terminals to the body (not to the crankcase protection bolts - they are screwed into plastic sockets). We install the bumper and connect the PTF.

We install the headlight switch button in one of the following ways:

1. On the panel between the front seats instead of a plug near the cigarette lighter.
2. On the dashboard console instead of a plug for the air conditioning button (for Kalina equipment without air conditioning).
3. As part of the purchased external lighting control unit, which is installed instead of the old module without a PTF power button.

We connect one wire from the button to the blue-black wire of the ignition switch (+12 V when the ignition is turned on). The second one is carried out to the relay block (on the dashboard on the left of the Kalina steering column). In the block we insert the relay into the place K9 provided for it. We connect to its contacts:

• to “85” – wire from the button;
• “86” – “mass”;
• “31” – at +12 V;
• from “87” - to the headlight fuses (F16 and F17).

We connect the wires from Kalina's PTF on the other side of the fuses.

Connecting Priora foglights, Priora foglight diagram

Depending on the configuration, the Priora may be equipped with front fog lights. All cars are equipped with rear fog lights. Let's consider connecting the Priora foglights. First of all, I want to note that only the factory connection diagram is considered here. In this case, the front fog lights are turned on only with the side lights turned on. Rear fog lights with low beam headlights on.

Connection of Priora fog lights diagram.

Let's take a closer look at the connection diagram for the Priora fog lights. The fog lights are controlled by the lighting control unit. Specifically, the switches for the front (A5) and rear (A4) fog lights. Upon examination, we can only notice one wire to enable each option. This wire passes through pin 2 to both switches through various resistances because it is a signal wire. It runs from the electrical package control controller to the switch. From the controller side, a stabilized voltage is supplied to this wire. The electrical package control unit controls changes in the amount of current passing through it.

Turn on the rear fog lights.

The rear fog lights of the Priora are turned on as follows. When you press the button on the module (A4), the wire from the electrical package control controller is connected through a negative resistance. In this case, a current of the appropriate magnitude will flow through the circuit, so the controller will receive a signal that this button is pressed. If there is power at pin 14 of block X2 and the low beam headlights are on (see “Prior headlight diagram”), then the processor, through the appropriate key, will supply power to pins 10 and 13 of block X3, to which the rear wiring harness is connected. Voltage will be supplied to the rear fog lamps and to the lighting control module. At the same time, the indicator light on the module will light up.

Turn on the fog lights.

Connecting the Priora fog lights is almost the same. The difference is in the value of resistance, and accordingly in the value of the passing current. Based on the current value, the processor of the lighting control controller determines the position of the front fog lamp button. Therefore, if there is power at pin 12 of the X2 block, the side lights are turned on (see “Prior Dimensions”), power will be supplied to pin 19 of the X2 block.

The green wire with a black stripe will supply voltage to the coil of the K10 electromagnetic relay. The coil armature will be attracted and close the contacts. In this case, fuses F17 and F18 with a nominal value of 10A will receive power, and from them, through the connecting connector of the instrument panel harness and the front harness, the lamps in the fog lights will receive power. In addition, the LED on the lighting control module will receive power from fuse F17, signaling that the headlights are on.

When you press both power buttons simultaneously, the current value will also change. Since in a parallel connection the total resistance is always less than the smaller one. That is, the value of the passing current will be maximum. Connecting Priora foglights according to this scheme makes troubleshooting very difficult, without the presence of diagnostic equipment for the electrical package control controller. If malfunctions occur, it is necessary to check the integrity of fuses, relays, operation of side lights and low beam headlights.

Basic Setup Aspects

After the fog lights are installed, their luminous flux will need to be properly adjusted so that the operation of the optics is most effective. Adjustment of fog lights should be carried out in conditions that are closest to real ones. Therefore, make sure that there is a spare tire in the trunk, the tank itself is fully filled, and the tire pressure should be the same. In addition, for greater realism, a load weighing about two hundred kilograms can be placed in the car interior.

When all these conditions are met, you can begin adjustment. First of all, the vehicle must be placed on the most level surface, this will allow you to get the most accurate result. If this condition is not met, the adjustment will be incorrect. The setting is done in front of a wall or garage door, this is a prerequisite.

To begin the adjustment, measure the distance from the ground to the middle of the lantern. After this, you should draw a straight line on the wall or garage door that corresponds to the distance measured earlier. Having done this, you will need to draw another stripe - it should be 5 centimeters lower, while the first line can be erased. The anti-fog optics should be adjusted so that the upper limit of illumination is located on the horizontal strip that you draw on the network.
