How do I replace headlight on 97 Dodge Caravan?

Question

I am a teacher not a mechanic, so is it simple enoughf to replace head light on my van? Drivers side! Thanks.

Answer 1

The bulb comes out from the backside of the headlight housing. Depending on how much room you have all you need to do is get your hand down there, remove the electrical connector and (if it has one) turn the retaining collar counter clockwise and remove the bulb. If it doesn't have a collor you just turn the bulb itself. And remember not to touch the glass on your new bulb as the oil from your skin will damage it.

Answer 2

you just need to replace the bulb part of it,its accessible from the back side ,remove the lock ring and pull outwards on it,be careful and don't touch the new bulb with your fingers it will contaminate it with the oil from your skin and it wont last as long as it should,take your time with it,their not that hard to replace,good luck and merry x-mas.
