We look at the 8 simple steps required to change the headlight bulb on a Chery J2 and J2 Swag.

Car Ownership

If you've been looking for information on your Chery J2, here's a tip - search for Fulwin 2, you'll thank me later. 

The Chery J2 was only named as such in South Africa and searching for information on the car leaves you with a host of local motoring reviews dating back to 2013 at best. The local Chery network is virtually nonexistent and as such you may feel a little disheartened by your blown headlight bulb.

Stress not, because AutoTrader is here to save the day. Here's how you change the headlight bulb on a Chery J2 / Fulwin 2.

You will need:

 

- The replacement bulb/s - consult your owners manual for the bulb model (H4 but may vary).

- Phillips-head screwdriver

- Flat-head screwdriver

How To:

1. Ensure the vehicle is switched off and the headlights are switched off as well.

2. Open the bonnet.

3. Locate the dust cover on the rear of the headlight, behind the bulb that needs changing.

4. Remove the dust cover by rotating anti-clockwise.

5. Grip the electrical connector on the back of the bulb and gently remove from the bulb.

6. Undo the retaining clip and extract the old bulb.

7. Without touching the glass of the new bulb, install and reassemble in reverse order.

8. Test the headlights to ensure that all is in working order.
