  • We all know luxury cars are beautiful by the way they ride, sound and feel like on the road. But who would of thought a headlight switch can be this difficult!? Here is how we changed the headlight bulb (lowbeam) for a 2010 Cadillac Escalade. Be ready to get uncomfortable but trust me, definitely worth it in the end! Save yourself the money and DIY!

    This video made me realize how difficult replacing the bulb on my Escalade really is 🥺 yup…looks like I’ll be paying someone to do it for me.

    You can replace without removing parts to the bumper and fender panels. Just remove the parts under the hood behind the headlight. Takes about 30mins

    Successful end product👍 Couple tips for next time... Since you already had the grille unbolted and the wheel wells disconnected, all that was left was one 10mm bolt each side of lower bumper. Then pop out turn signal/fog lights while you're there. Whole front end comes off and leaves you with acres of space and no worries of scratching the vehicle (and yourselves). This also keeps you from having to mess with the auxillary battery tray, therefore less bolts to mess with overall.

    Thanks, did it myself, cracked the hidden bolt plastic part on the light. Super glued it, let sit and dry, put it back together and was solid🤗for now🤔

    Thanks for this video. For others attempting this, that bolt that is hard to get to at the bottom, you do NOT need to remove that completely. The mount on the headlamp assembly is split, not a closed loop, so you can just loosen it and slide it off. Save yourself some headaches and leave it on.

    Removing the 2 side bumper bolts makes it much easier to reach the bottom bolt, plus the headlamp assembly comes right out without a scratch. Armature solo replace took 1hr =)

    • @Martsims9
      @Martsims9 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      that's exactly what it is a battery tray. Some GM Trucks/Suvs have this in place to install a second I have the same on both my Tahoe and Escalade. I just did a quick search on youtube and here's the first of lots of links that came up on the subject.

    Gussssh. Now I understand what the hatters of this car are talking about. Mine has same exact (Painful) driver side burned out and now I am thinking to change it at all or tolerate!
    WHY can't these idiots make its as simple, efficient and easy as Denali Yukon, where I only have to turn two long rods, 45 degree counter clock and remove the entire light assembly away from the car, without touch anything else or even screwing or using a tool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    You don't have to remove all of that stuff to get to the headlights. I remove nothing but the rubber cover that go over the housing of the lights. I can change all three bulbs in less then 5 minutes. All of this is unnecessary and time consuming.

    Isn’t that about the most ridiculous thing you’ve ever seen in your life? You have to jump through those many hoops just to change a headlight. That’s insane. In my Chevy Tahoe there’s 2 long L pins on each side. You pull those pins and the whole lens will come out with little to no effort. No tools involved
