Changing the front parking light bulb on Renault Scénic 2

Photo 1: We observe that the passenger side light bulb is no longer working. After switching off the ignition, we unlock the hood using the lever in the passenger compartment.

Photo 2: we also pull the small tab at the grille (orange arrow) to free the hood opening.

Do not forget to lock the hood in the open position using the prop attached to the inside of the hood.

Photo 1: From the engine compartment, access the position light bulb housing by turning the plastic cap counterclockwise (red arrows).

Photo 2: we then access the socket which we release from the headlight lens by a counterclockwise rotation (orange arrows). Note the notches which will allow the previously removed cap to be repositioned (blue arrows)

Photo 3: you can then remove the socket from the optics and remove the defective bulb by rotating it counterclockwise.

Photo 1: At the top, the defective bulb: the glass is blackened and the filament broken. At the bottom, the new bulb with identical references H6W.

Photo 2: The H6W bulb base has 2 positioning lugs in the socket (orange arrows). Avoid forcing the insertion into the socket.

Photo 3: Inner part of the socket. The fixing notches for the lugs are indicated by the yellow arrows. Screw the bulb a quarter turn into the socket.

Photo 1: after having fixed the new bulb in the socket, we will fix the socket in the optic by screwing it a quarter turn (clockwise).

Photo 2: once the socket is fixed in the optic, we memorize the positions of the notches which will be used to position the plastic cap (orange arrows).

Photo 3: the cap lugs (yellow arrows) are placed in the notches, then screwed in a quarter turn (clockwise). The bulb replacement is complete. Test for proper operation before closing the hood.
