What kind of lamps are there on Qashqai?

1 Low beam lamp - H7 halogen lamp power 55 watts. Cylindrical in shape, with two contacts.

2 High beam lamp - H7 halogen lamp power 55 watts. Cylindrical in shape, with two contacts.

3 The lamp in the fog lamp is a halogen lamp H8 or H11 (depending on the configuration). L-shaped, two-contact lamp, 55 watts with a plastic base.

4 Front turn signal lamp - yellow single-pin incandescent lamp PY21W, 21 watts.

5 The turn signal, reverse and rear fog lamp lamp is a single-pin incandescent lamp P21W, 21 watts, orange.

6 The license plate, trunk and interior lighting lamp is a small single-pin W5W lamp with a power of 5 watts.

7 Brake signal and side light lamp - two-pin incandescent lamp with a metal base P21/5W, power 21/5 watts.

8 Turn signal lamp - baseless single-pin yellow W5W lamp with a power of 5 watts.

Running optics

The headlights use bulbs with an H7 standard socket, the power of which is 55W. The main advantage of this solution is that they do not need to be fixed using a special bracket, unlike analogues in the H4 format; for fastening they are simply turned in the grooves a quarter turn. This simplifies the replacement process and speeds it up. It is better to choose branded light bulbs; cheap Chinese elements sometimes do not correspond to the declared characteristics, do not last long, and do not provide sufficient luminous flux intensity. Philips, Bosch, Osram are good, reliable solutions that have been tested by many Nissan Qashqai owners. The marker optics use W5W bulbs; similar elements illuminate the license plate.

Headlights can be repaired without any problems:

The vehicle is de-energized.
If you intend to repair the left headlight, you will have to first dismantle the air duct and air filter pipes, only this will help ensure free access.

Removing the air intake

This is quite simple to do - just pull out a pair of plugs using a screwdriver. The air intake rises carefully. Carefully insert your hand into the gap under the air intake and feel for the rubber plug that seals the optical elements. Remove it; no extra effort is required. Turn counterclockwise to unscrew the lamp and its retainer.

Replacing a low beam lamp on a Nissan Qashqai is another procedure; if you change it from the left side, in theory everything looks simple and clear.

Lamp replacement diagram in the instruction book:

But to get to the protective plastic cover you need to tinker.

The first thing we need to remove is the cold air intake. To do this, you need to remove two plastic clips.

After removing the clips, we simply lift the intake and move it away so that it does not interfere with us.

Next, you need to remove the lamp protective cap by turning it counterclockwise.

After removing the cover, you need to turn the low beam lamp counterclockwise and carefully remove it from the headlight.

Then we replace the old lamp with a new one and assemble everything in the reverse order.

Types of lighting fixtures

There are two most popular types of lamps for Qashqai 2011: xenon and LEDs. Each of them has its own positive and negative qualities.

Xenon devices

Xenon has the following advantages:

A fairly bright and powerful light that will guarantee good illumination and, therefore, maximum safety.
The service life of a xenon lamp is quite long: about 2500 hours, while for a halogen lamp it is no more than 600.
This lamp consumes about 7% of energy to create heat, so it can be installed in any headlight. Compared to halogen ones, about 40% of their energy goes to heating.

Flaws:

In Russia, only those xenon devices on the Qashqai 2012 are allowed that were installed during the initial assembly of the car. The use of counterfeits, especially Chinese ones, can lead not only to refusal to have your car serviced, but also to a fine.
Such a device requires the additional installation of ignition units and auto-corrector of headlight angle.
This type of product provokes increased fuel consumption due to the greater load on the generator (0.3 l/100 km).
High price.
If one bulb is broken, you will have to change both because the color and brightness of the light flux changes over time.

LED options

LED lamps have the following positive qualities:

Very low energy consumption. Energy consumption will be 6–8 Watts (halogens have 60 Watts), and fuel consumption will be 0.3 l/100 km.
No additional equipment needed.
Such a lamp heats up even less than xenon. It takes no more than 4% of energy to create heat.
The lamp will last up to 10,000 hours.
The nature of the light is not very different from xenon.
LEDs are universal, and you can match the bulbs to almost any car.

DETAILS: Instructions for replacing the fuel filter of a CHEVROLET NIVA with your own hands

Flaws:

The cost of such products is higher than halogen ones.
The brightness of the lighting is a little stronger than with xenon, but it is very noticeable.

Removing the air intake

Disconnect the fasteners, remove the old lamp and install the new element.

Reassemble in reverse order. Make sure that the rubber plug is installed tightly enough, otherwise there is a high risk of condensation getting inside, oxidizing the contacts and causing the entire unit to fail.
Place the air intake in its original place.

It turns out that there is nothing difficult in replacing optics. The main thing is to know how to turn off the lights to ensure complete safety of the process. As we have already noted, to do this, simply disconnect the negative terminal from the battery.

Setting up the headlights

Adjusting the lighting is also necessary, since we have removed the headlights. An optical instrument and a service station will help, there are many ways, but let’s use this. Follow:

the machine must not be loaded; tire pressure is normal; fuel in the tank - to the brim, otherwise you need to make the body heavier (put a weight comparable to a full fuel tank); a person or object weighing about 75 kg can be placed in the driver’s seat; flat area under the car.

Adjustment occurs through adjusting screws installed on the left and right sides of the headlight.

Let's look at the “face” of the car - the left screw adjusts the light in height on the left lamp, the right screw does this on the right one. Lateral debugging occurs due to another screw.

Let's get down to business:

Start the engine for a couple of minutes, the position of the headlight range control (if equipped) should be set to “0”;
adjust the lighting near the wall - the distance between the car and the object should be 10 m. The adjustable headlight should be oriented along the beam of light from the adjusted headlight (the same height is maintained);
We adjust the headlight so that the low beam is 5 cm lower than the high beam.

IL-Trade 4300K 350 rub. PC.

I might do it in the future)

I drove xenon for a year and a half so far and it's holding up great.

Install xenon 4300k or 5000k. 5000k loses brightness on wet asphalt but shines with a bluish tint, 4300k is bright white, kind of like ordinary lamps. I have 5000k, waiting for the firewall to be installed at 4300k. The ignition unit is placed in the headlight unit and does not interfere with the corrector

Xenon will be expensive(

mtf palladium look beautiful, but the light is rather poor.

I decided to buy Philips diamond vision. Thank you)

High brightness of the lamp leads to its rapid failure. Moreover, the Eurolight constantly turns on the low beam. My friends dabbled in white and blue, and super night-light vision. But 2-3 months and change the lamp. Slowly we switched to regular ones. From my own feelings, I can say that white or bright white light at night does not greatly increase visibility, it’s just that objects nearby are visible a little sharper. I still recommend a temperature less than 5000K.

Then we need to turn off the Euro lights) I decided to take Philips

The higher the glow temperature, the worse the lighting when the surface is wet! But it looks nicer.

Thanks I'll know )

Greetings! Install Koito Whitebeam III. Everything else is just a joke...

It has a glow temperature of 4,200 K, but I would like 5,000 K
