How to remove the headlight on the VAZ 2114, eliminating random errors

The front lighting devices are statistically the most fragile part of the car. The bumper or hood with insignificant contact with third-party objects can be detected, but the brittle glass of lighting devices is not subject to repair.

Also, unlike mechanical details responsible for the appearance of the car, the repair of light will not be postponed, therefore, with a question, every car enthusiast is facing a headlight on VAZ 2114. First, the life of the driver depends on their health, secondly, the fault of the lighting devices is a significant reason for the fine.

In addition to collisions, there are many household reasons, the consequences of the headlight of the VAZ 2114 becomes replacing, the most common - poorly cleaned road. Even the smallest pebbles that have passed the "millstone" of the wheels in front of the car, turn into a "bullet".

Moreover, the starting speed of some of them is quite commensurate with real small arms. Therefore, let's figure it out how to replace the optics entirely, change the glass and what lighting devices to buy.

Replacement time and choice of optics

In addition to the above-described difficulties familiar to motorists driven over long distances, there are more banal causes associated with the shock absorption of the headlight itself. There is no certain expiration date of this mechanism, but the lamps will "burn out" over time, "the material of the reflector and the diffuser comes into disrepair.

The last two elements have a shelf life directly associated with the material from which they are made and car care methods. At the same time, even the best of them are still susceptible to getting the dirt related to the depressurization of the headlight design.

IMPORTANT! If you have good headlights, but you still see anything - visit a good car service having a booth to debug light. Perhaps you only need to clean the design and configure.

The choice of headlights is extremely important for the convenience of the motorist. To speak more precisely, the company's manufacturer is not important (although it affects the characteristic of light), but the identity of the lighting devices. If you have regular headlights on your car, and you decided to replace only one, then find the original one. Do not take, outwardly similar, auto light or Bosch.

From a technical point of view, the headlights will be the same, but the technology of manufacturing optics in different firms differs, as a result, you will receive two distinctly different headlights. Even if you do not care about the appearance of the car, do not forget about the properties of your eyes.

Human eyesight and brain have a number of features and in this case they will manifest that a more powerful headlight will create a "dust area" instead of light more dim. Consequently, improved visibility will not happen, and the brain will perceive the "blind zone" almost the same if it were not at all.

Algorithm for replacing the front headlight VAZ 2114

When we decided on the terms and reasons for the replacement, as well as know what to be guided to choose new optics, it's time to go to the question how to change the headlight on the VAZ 2114.

Remember! The lighting system of the car is part of its power grid, therefore, it is impossible to forget about the standard safety measures necessary for working with this part of the car. You need at least to remove the terminal from the battery, and if you have to work with the right form (along the movement), you will also have to remove the battery, otherwise it will be removed it impossible.

So, removing the front headlight:

This is done as follows:

disconnect the wire from the headlight itself and fix it in the pumproom space;
we find a latch of the corrector and clamp it, after which we turn it counterclockwise. If everything is done correctly, it will be easily removed and without the need to use physical strength;
we unscrew the mounting nuts using a cape. Total nuts three and find them will not be difficult;
screwdriver unscrewing the screw connecting the headlight with the bracket;
gently take out the headlight through the "face" of the car.

There is another headlight removal method, which involves the removal of the entire headlight block along with the middle frame.

To do this, it is necessary to immediately disconnect the wires from the headlight and the rotary pointer, then remove the hydro director, and after:

We unscrew the four bolts for the headlight group.
We remove the headlight along with the median frame and unscrew it with fasteners outside the car.
After removing the mounts, we carefully take out the headlight itself.

After replacing (repair), the car is necessary in the reverse order of that method you used. Also note that it is possible that the headlight is subject to repair and you just need to replace the glass of the headlight VAZ 2114, which is often found in the practice of using this car.

Replacing the rear headlight VAZ 2114

This procedure is much easier than the front fellow.

Removing the rear illuminator:

Unscrew tissue casing.
Unscrew 4 nuts with the key to "10".
Remove the rear lamp, and if you need, it dismissed the latch, take out the lamp holder.

Everything is going in reverse order, and the complete replacement of both rear headlamp will take no more than 10 minutes. Everything is done easily and without physical effort, the main thing is not to drop the lantern on the rear bumper, at the time of his withdrawal.

Change the glass of the front headlight

If you see that the headlight itself is working, and its cloudy is associated with glass defects, you need to know how to remove the glass from the headlights of the VAZ 2114, and then replace it.

The implementation algorithm is as follows:

We dismantle the headlight with one of the above methods.
We take a thin flat screwdriver (spatula, knife) and upset the glass corner.
In the resulting clearance insert the tip of the stationery knife and cut the old sealant (if the sealant remains a lot, take the hair dryer and warm the edge of the glass).

Now the glass is removed, but do not forget that the reverse assembly will include applying the sealant (you can replace the rubber seal), so do not forget to get in advance. Also on the headlights of some manufacturers there are headlights with latches, so do not use gross power, but just look at where they are waiting for them.
