How to change the front and rear light bulbs of a VAZ 2112

The reasons for replacing rear lights on a VAZ 2110-2112 can be different and the main ones are the following:

• damage due to unsuccessful parking or an accident
• darkening and fading over time

This repair procedure is quite simple and you can do everything yourself, having only a few tools on hand, the list of which is given below:

1. Phillips blade screwdriver
2. Ratchet handle
3. 8 mm head
4. Extension

I think there is no need to explain once again that the rear lights are located in blocks, one of which is located in the wing, and the second in the trunk lid, so we will consider the removal procedure separately.

The main reasons for replacing bulbs in the side lights of a Honda CR–V

With the development of new technologies, old incandescent lamps are becoming a thing of the past, and LEDs are taking their place. The desire to replace side lights can be caused by many reasons:

• Improving the appearance of the car and making the light bulbs brighter. In combination with cold xenon, LED lamps look great.
• Increased service life of side lights. LEDs last much longer than classic incandescent lamps.
• Reduced energy consumption and, as a result, savings on fuel.
• Desire to keep up with technological progress.

Whatever the reason for replacing the side lights on your CR-V, we recommend that you use our step-by-step instructions.

Replacing the headlight bulb

Replacing the size lamp in the rear lights of a VAZ 2110 is quite simple. First of all, we dismantle the board with the lamps in the same way as we did when troubleshooting: we bend the upholstery flap, squeeze the two latches and remove the board from the lamp (see above). In this case, the power supply does not need to be disconnected - the length of the wires is quite enough to replace light bulbs. Before us are three lamps - one small and two large. We need the first one.

The side light bulb in the rear light is the smallest

We press it down slightly and, turning it counterclockwise, remove it from the socket. In place of the burnt one, we install a new one, also drowning and turning, but clockwise. Turn on the side light and check the result of the work. If everything is in order, we install the board in place, making sure that both latches work, and close the canopy with the upholstery flap.

The most common lighting problems in the VAZ-2112

All faults that arise are divided into two categories:

• mechanical;
• electric.

During vehicle operation, external lighting devices are exposed to various negative influences. They are often rendered unusable:

• stones flying out from under the wheels of cars driving in front;
• sand;
• branches of bushes, etc.

Thus, the first thing to do if you were unable to turn on the headlights is to check their integrity. The simplest option in this case is to replace the entire unit that has become unusable. Removing it is not difficult. In addition, the headlight can be repaired

It is important to pay attention to restoring its tightness - ignoring this requirement leads to rapid failure of the entire unit, since moisture that gets inside contributes to:

• constant fogging of lenses;
• oxidation of contacts;
• rapid wear of fasteners.

The most common electrical failure is a light bulb burnout - this is usually indicated by the failure of only one of the headlights. There are no special options here - you will have to change it to a working one.

If the lamps are good, then you should suspect the following faults:

• the fuse link has burned out;
• the electromagnetic switching relay has deteriorated;
• one of the circuit contacts has come off (or oxidized);
• there is a break in the wires;
• there is no mass.

Troubleshooting methods

What are the troubleshooting options:

1. If there is no backlight, you need to check the fuse and replace it if it is blown. All failed light bulbs must be replaced.
2. If the sensors are not working, you should check the integrity of the wiring with a multimeter or other tester to check the wiring. Damaged sections of wires also need to be replaced.
3. If the car interior is humid, over time this can lead to oxidation of the shield contacts. If such a malfunction occurs, the contacts must be cleaned or replaced.
4. If the problem lies precisely in the inoperability of the instrument cluster, then it is better to entrust the repair to specialists. It is possible that in the process you will have to resolder some elements, so if you do not have experience in carrying out such events, then contact an electrician (the video was shot by Alexey Lipatov).

Instructions for dismantling the tidy

So, how to remove and disassemble the device for its subsequent repair or replacement:

To begin, you will need to use a Phillips screwdriver to unscrew the two self-tapping screws located on the top trim. After this, you also need to unscrew two more bolts, they are located on the bottom of the lining. Then you need to carefully detach the cover and put it aside. Next, the connectors with wiring from the buttons located on the sides of the device are disconnected. This will allow you to move the trim to the side. Only after these steps can you unscrew the two bolts that secure the tidy to the center console

They are located at the ends. Then you need to carefully slide the combination back, parallel to disconnecting it from the metal plates installed on top. For complete dismantling, you also need to disconnect the two connectors with the wiring on the back of the panel. Having done this, you can remove the device from the mounting location and begin repairing or replacing it. The assembly procedure is carried out in reverse order.

What should you know about car optics?

A modern car has a large number of lighting fixtures.

All of them are combined into a single lighting system that performs the following functions:

• illuminates the road and side of the road;
• signals the driver's intentions;
• informs about the dimensions of the car;
• illuminates the interior, engine compartment, luggage compartment, etc.

All devices are divided into external and internal lighting. The external ones include front headlights, turn signals, dimensions, license plate lights, fog lights on the VAZ 2112. The headlights on the VAZ 2112 are a block that contains several lighting devices: low and high beam lamps, DRLs.

Turning and side lights are signaling lights. The former warn about the driver’s intentions to perform a particular maneuver, the latter inform about the vehicle’s dimensions. They are built into the front headlight and rear lights. A special feature of signaling devices is that they shine yellow and synchronously.

Requirements for installing daytime running lights on cars have appeared recently. They have an intense light, their function is to improve the visibility of the car when driving in the daytime. In their absence, this function is performed by low beam or PTF. Fog lights on the VAZ 2112 are designed for driving during bad weather when visibility is poor. They are installed in pairs at the front. The back may be missing.

The rear lights of the VAZ 2112, like the headlights, are block headlights. These include the exterior light, turn lights and side lights.

Tail lights VAZ 2111

The rear optics include a brake light, a luggage compartment light and a license plate light.

Interior lighting consists of: interior lights, engine compartment lights, door lights, trunk lights, glove compartment lights, and dashboard lights.

Features of choice

Automotive optics is constantly evolving and at this stage the following types can be named:

• halogen;
• xenon;
• LED;
• laser

Halogen lamps resemble conventional incandescent lamps in their design: a glass bulb contains electrodes with a tungsten filament. Due to the high heating temperature, halogen lamps quickly fail as the tungsten filament burns out. The main advantage of these lamps is their low cost.

Xenon lamps shine much brighter than halogen lamps. At the same time, they do not have a filament, so they are not afraid of shocks and vibrations. Xenon is durable and economical. The disadvantage is that both bulbs have to be changed, since during operation the brightness decreases, so the light of the lamps will be different. In addition, xenon optics require the installation of an ignition unit.

LED optics have bright light, economical energy consumption, long service life, and do not heat up. Another advantage is the ability to install LEDs of different colors. The disadvantage is low efficiency. For high-quality lighting you need a large number of LEDs (video author - Pro Sport).

Laser optics uses laser LEDs, which are characterized by high power and small size; their light is very bright. The disadvantage of laser lighting elements is the complexity of control.

When choosing optics, you should be guided by the following factors:

When choosing lamps, you need to take into account the parameters (base type, markings, etc.) that are indicated in the instruction manual. You cannot install xenon on a VAZ 2112 in halogen optics

When installing xenon, it is necessary to change the optics to the appropriate lens. You should pay attention to the manufacturer and buy lighting fixtures from well-known companies. The seller should ask for a certificate stating that the product can be used in European countries.

VAZ-2112 headlights do not work: reasons and repairs – Website about the domestic automobile industry

As a rule, the cause of low beam malfunction on a VAZ 2110 is burnt out light bulbs. However, sometimes the lack of lighting is due to the failure of other components. Below we will look at how to replace lamps, as well as the most common reasons why the low beam does not light up and how to eliminate them.

Replacing lamps

Choice

The process of replacing lamps on a VAZ 2110 is extremely simple. However, before you begin this operation, you must purchase new lighting elements.

This vehicle is factory equipped with H7 standard halogen bulbs. Today there is a large selection of lamps on sale, not only halogen, but also other types - xenon and LED.

Their features, advantages and disadvantages have been discussed many times on car enthusiast forums, so below we provide only a comparative table with the main characteristics of these lamps:

Note! The most optimal color temperature of the light flux is in the range of 4300 – 5000 K.

It must be said that in addition to the data from the table, when choosing, you should also take into account the penetrating ability of the light flux. Halogen lamps are the leaders in this parameter - they illuminate the road much better in rain, fog or snow.

In addition, installing xenon or LEDs in the fog lights of the VAZ 2110 will require electrical intervention, in particular the installation of additional equipment (ignition units). Therefore, it will not be possible to perform their high-quality and safe installation with your own hands.

Note! Experts recommend changing light bulbs in pairs so that both headlights shine equally.

In addition, their service life is approximately the same, so if one of them burns out, the second one will soon fail.

Adjustment

Once a year, the low beam on the VAZ 2110 should be adjusted. This procedure is necessary in order to increase the lighting efficiency and also to prevent dazzling oncoming drivers.

Below we will take a closer look at how to adjust the low beam headlights:

• You need to find a flat area with a wall that will serve as a screen.
• The car should be placed at a distance of five meters from the screen. A passenger must sit in front. You can also put a load weighing 75 kilograms in the car.
• On the screen you need to draw a horizontal line at 600 mm, as well as a second line 75 mm below the first.
• Then you need to draw three vertical lines - the two outer lines should correspond to the centers of the headlights, and the middle one should be located in the middle between them.
• The headlight hydraulic adjustment handle should be moved to the position corresponding to the minimum load.
• One of the headlights must be covered with cardboard or a sheet of plywood.

Adjustment screws

• Then the light beam is adjusted according to the diagram. Adjustment is carried out with screws with plastic heads, which are located on the back side of the headlights. They rotate the optical element around the horizontal and vertical axis.
• Next, you need to adjust the second headlight in the same way.

Here, in fact, is all the information on how to adjust the low beam headlights.

How to adjust headlights

Adjusting the headlights after changing lamps, if necessary, is best done by a professional service center. However, if someone does not have such an immediate opportunity, then an approximate adjustment of the optics can be done with your own hands, following the instructions:

1. Place the machine perpendicular to a flat, light wall on a level place five meters away.
2. Turn off all additional light sources, except for the low-beam headlights - side and running lights.
3. Place an assistant in the driver's seat or place ballast weighing 70-80 kg there.
4. If the beam of light from a headlight with a replacement bulb does not coincide with the other, you need to use the adjustment screws on the optics housing and adjust the lighting.

Problems with headlights of VAZ 2112 cars and their simple solution

The quality of lighting reduces the risk of getting into an accident at night and during bad weather

Therefore, it is important that the headlights in a VAZ 2112 car illuminate the road surface well. It is necessary to monitor the serviceability of the optics and carry out timely repairs

This article will help you figure out what optics are installed on the VAZ 2112, how to choose, and provides instructions for replacing lamps and adjusting headlights.

A modern car has a large number of lighting fixtures.

All of them are combined into a single lighting system that performs the following functions:

• illuminates the road and side of the road;
• signals the driver's intentions;
• informs about the dimensions of the car;
• illuminates the interior, engine compartment, luggage compartment, etc.

All devices are divided into external and internal lighting. The external ones include front headlights, turn signals, side lights, rear lights, license plate lights, fog lights on the VAZ 2112. The headlights on the VAZ 2112 are a block that contains several lighting devices: low and high beam lamps, side lights, DRL.

Turning and side lights are signaling lights. The former warn about the driver’s intentions to perform a particular maneuver, the latter inform about the vehicle’s dimensions. They are built into the front headlight and rear lights. A special feature of signaling devices is that they shine yellow and synchronously.

In their absence, this function is performed by low beam or PTF. Fog lights on the VAZ 2112 are designed for driving during bad weather when visibility is poor. They are installed in pairs at the front.

The back may be missing.

The rear lights of the VAZ 2112, like the headlights, are block headlights. These include the exterior light, turn lights and side lights.

Tail lights VAZ 2111

The rear optics include a brake light, a luggage compartment light and a license plate light.

Interior lighting consists of: interior lights, engine compartment lights, door lights, trunk lights, glove compartment lights, and dashboard lights.

Both headlights do not work

In the case when two headlights fail at once (and both the high and low beams do not work), the switch responsible for the external lighting is first inspected. It is easy to test the circuit using a test light or a regular tester. One wire is applied to ground, and the other to the 30th terminal. If this is not the problem, then there will be 12 volts on it (even with the ignition off). After turning the key, voltage will also flow to terminal 10. Such diagnostic results allow us to say with complete confidence that the light does not come on precisely because of the switch.

If there is no voltage at the terminals mentioned above, then most likely the wires have broken or the contact has been lost.

Why do the dimensions and instrument lights on the VAZ-2110 not light up?

Car : VAZ-2110. Asks : Konstantin Samoilikov. The essence of the question : why did the instrument panel lights stop lighting?

I drove during the day and had no problems. In the evening I noticed that the instrument panel lights were barely lit, and then disappeared completely. Also, when I got out of the car at the gas station, I noticed that the warning lights were not lighting up at all. Help me please.

Instrument panel device

What to do if the tidy stops working? How to diagnose and repair the shield, how to disassemble the device correctly? To begin with, we recommend that you familiarize yourself with the features of the device.

This unit includes the following components:

1. Tachometer or speed sensor. With its help, the control unit reads the number of crankshaft revolutions.
2. Speedometer or speed sensor. Everyone knows what it is needed for - to demonstrate the speed of the car.
3. , allowing you to determine the remaining displacement of gasoline in the gas tank.
4. Antifreeze temperature sensor, which is also an internal combustion engine temperature controller. Thanks to it, the driver can know when the engine has warmed up to operating temperature and when the power unit is overheating.
5. The device also includes indicators indicating whether electrical equipment is turned on or not working. A total of twelve indicator lights should be used.
6. To enable the driver to use the instrument at night, the dashboard is equipped with backlight bulbs.
7. The devices are equipped with an econometer - a fuel economy sensor that shows in which driving mode gas savings will be optimal. The same panels also use electrical circuit voltage sensors, according to which it is possible to detect the voltage level in the electrical network - undercharge or overdischarge.
8. There is also an additional, backup connector in the device. Indicators of additional equipment that were not installed by the manufacturer are connected to it. For example, these could be airbags, fog lights, etc.
9. On the back of the device there are connectors for connecting wiring.

To prevent you from confusing the pads during repairs or diagnostics, each of them is marked with a specific color.

For example, the red block, in accordance with the diagram, is marked as X2, and the white block is marked as X1. Domestic “Tens” can be equipped with different devices, in this case it all depends on the configuration and year of manufacture of the car.

The VAZ 2110 can use old or new devices:

1. A distinctive feature of the old-style tidy is the installation of all sensors and indicators symmetrically.
2. As for the new type of devices, the coolant temperature controllers, as well as the fuel level controllers, began to be located with a slight shift to the right. In addition, the new devices no longer use a voltage controller in the car network, as well as an econometer.

Fuses VAZ 2110 - 2112

Now let's see which fuses are responsible for what in the same mounting block. I will also give the main reasons for troubleshooting.

Purpose of block fuses

F1 (5 A) - license plate lighting lamps, dashboard lighting, side lights on the panel, trunk lamp, left side lights.

If any of the listed lamps do not work, check this fuse, as well as the lamps themselves and their contacts. If everything is in order, check the headlights switch.

If both low beam headlights do not work, also check relay K4 and the lamps themselves. It could also be the light switch and its contacts.

If both high beam headlights do not work, check the K5 relay, the lamps themselves and the high beam switch knob.

F4 (10 A) - front fog lamp on the right side.

What kind of lighting do you prefer?

Built-in Chandelier

If both fog lights do not work, check relay 9 and the headlight bulbs themselves, as well as the switch and its contacts.

F5 (30 A) - window lift motors.

If the power windows do not work, check this fuse and relay 5. In winter, check if the windows are frozen, warm them up and clear them of ice if necessary. It could also be the window lift motor, its mechanism and gears; in order to get to it, you need to remove the trim of the desired door.

F6 (15 A) - portable lamp fuse.

There may also be problems with the cigarette lighter. To check, unplug the cigarette lighter from the connector. If this fuse stops burning, then the problem is in the cigarette lighter.

F7 (20 A) - engine cooling fan, sound signal.

If the cooling fan does not turn on and the engine overheats, check this fuse. Also check the operation of the fan motor by connecting it directly to the battery. It could also be the coolant temperature sensor or thermostat.

F8 (20 A) - heated rear window (element).

If the heating does not work and the rear window fogs up, check this fuse, fuse F9 and relay K7. Also check the contacts on the terminals of the heating elements, check the wiring, sometimes the wire frays. It could also be the heating switch and its contacts.

F9 (20 A) - recirculation valve, windshield wipers and washer, headlight washer, rear window heating relay coil.

If the heating does not work, similar to the previous one. If the windshield wipers or washer do not work, also check relay K2, the fluid level in the washer reservoir, the washer pump, and the wiper motor. Another issue may be their switching handle, its wiring and contacts. The wires may be squashed or frayed and shorted to the housing.

Common optical problems and how to fix them

Problems with automotive optics can be divided into mechanical and electrical problems.

During operation, automotive optics are subject to mechanical stress. It can be damaged by small and large stones, sand, branches of bushes, etc. The easiest way to eliminate damage is to replace the headlight or flashlight. To do this, you need to know how to remove the headlight on a VAZ 2112. But you can restore the optics with your own hands.

The following mechanical problems are possible:

• cracks and scratches on the glass surface;
• damage to fasteners;
• violation of tightness.

Scratches and cracks can be eliminated by grinding and polishing. Destroyed fasteners are replaced with new ones. If the seal is broken, the optics sweat, so it needs to be restored, as visibility deteriorates and the contacts oxidize. For serious mechanical damage in the form of chips, tools are selected depending on the degree of damage.

Before repairing, you should study the material used to make the optics. Depending on this, you can use cold or conventional welding.

When it comes to electrical problems, the most common cause is burnt out light bulbs. In this case, they need to be replaced.

If the reason is not the light bulbs, then the following malfunctions are possible:

• fuse is blown;
• The switching relay does not work;
• contacts are oxidized or burnt;
• switch is faulty;
• The integrity of the wiring is broken; ground is missing.

Replacing blown fuses

If the brake lights of the VAZ 2112 do not light up, the turn signals do not work, or the light has completely disappeared, you need to sequentially check all the elements that are part of the lighting system, including the fuse box and power supplies.

Causes

The side lights can be turned on either with the ignition off or on. In the event that at least one side light bulb does not light, relay K1, located in the mounting block, will turn on a warning light on the instrument panel to warn the driver about this malfunction.

In this case, the driver, with the side lights on, needs to get out of the car and see which of the four lamps is not on. If all the size lamps are on, then you also need to check the brake light lamps, since relay K1 is also activated for these lamps, and if at least one of them burns out, the warning lamp on the instrument panel will light up. After all, brake lights also ensure traffic safety.

The electrical circuit of the side lights is protected by two fuses. F11 (5A), works on the side lamps on the starboard side, and F1(5A), on the starboard lamps, it also protects:

• license plate lamps;
• instrument panel lighting lamps;
• side light indicator lamp;
• trunk light lamp.

Therefore, if fuse F1 blows, troubleshooting will have to be done in all of the above electrical circuits.

If all the side light lamps do not light up, then first of all you need to check the Ш2 connector block in the mounting block (it is located horizontally), since it is through contact No. 7 of this plug connector that power is supplied to the side light lamps. A possible reason for the dimensions not turning on could be the three-position switch located on the front panel. The serviceability of the switch can be checked by ringing it with a tester and, if necessary, replaced.

Problems and their solutions

There are several common problems typical for the dashboard of the domestically produced VAZ 2110 model.

1. The instrument panel lights on the VAZ 2110 do not light up. Check the contacts and the condition of the wiring that is responsible for the suspension. The fuses could simply have blown, or the light bulbs themselves could have burned out as a result of wear and tear or a short circuit. In fact, there can be many reasons, so it is not always possible to resolve the issue in a couple of minutes.
2. The most serious failure for the instrument panel is a complete failure of the unit. In such a situation, all indicators stop working, the arrows fall down, and the warning lamps do not light up. To fix the problem, first check fuse 15, which is designated F6. You will find it on the mounting block. If this element is blown, simply replacing the fuse will not solve the problem. Look for the reason why it burned out. Usually this is a simple short circuit in the electrical network.
3. The arrows jump up and down. This is also a common phenomenon, the cause of which in most cases is poor ground contact: This ground wire goes to the partition that separates the interior and engine compartment, from the instrument panel. To get to it, remove the radio from its seat. Check the quality of its fastening;
4. Often, when installing an alarm system, the ground wire is moved to another location for more convenient access. Therefore, if you have an alarm system, but there is no wire under the radio, then look for it behind the interior trim near the driver’s left foot;
5. The ground wire may be damaged when installing a new audio system. When the minus is connected, the mass is unscrewed and then often mounted back, only not as reliably as it was originally. Due to vibrations, collisions with bumps and holes, the fastening weakens and contact disappears. Hence the non-functional panel. Do not be lazy to properly wrap the bulk wire, since poor fastening is often explained by the inconvenience of performing this activity.

Problem with the instrument panel. To check if everything is fine with it, remove it as much as possible from the seat, but do not disconnect the wiring going to the pads. The white wire (X1) that goes to the first contact is checked. It would be a good idea to check the voltage on pins 10.9 and 6. During normal operation of the system, the device should give a reading of about 12 volts. Be sure to look at the back of the shield and make sure the conductive paths are intact. Cigarette lighter. It is not uncommon for the instrument panel on a VAZ 2110 to fail due to the cigarette lighter. You are probably no exception among drivers who connect all sorts of additional devices and devices through this socket. This is how many people charge their phones, connect tablets, video recorders and other equipment. By consuming a large amount of current, the devices damage the cigarette lighter or cause fuse F19 to blow. Because of this, the instrument panel turns off or does not work correctly. If the fuse is intact, simply disconnect the cigarette lighter connector. If such measures do not produce results, simply replace the fuse with a new one.

As practice shows, most problems associated with the failure of the dashboard can be solved independently. Especially when it comes to a car like the VAZ 2110.

But there is an important BUT. If you do not have minimal experience working with electronics and do not understand anything about electrics, we strongly do not recommend that you approach the dashboard wires

In this case, contact a service station, deal only with experienced auto mechanics and people who are well versed in automotive electricals

If you do not have minimal experience working with electronics and do not understand anything about electrics, we strongly do not recommend that you approach the dashboard wires. In this case, contact a service station, deal only with experienced auto mechanics and people who are well versed in automotive electrics.

Improve yourself

. Perhaps soon you will be able to change to a more expensive, modern car. Then solving the electronics problem will be much more difficult

The VAZ 2110 is an excellent simulator that allows you to carry out repairs yourself, understand the structure of the car, and experience all the delights of self-repair. It is important for any man to be able not only to drive, but also, if necessary, to repair his car.

Causes of breakdowns

There can be many reasons for malfunctions. The most common problem is that the lamps burn out, which naturally makes it impossible to turn on the side lights. Lamps brought to us from the Middle Kingdom are especially unreliable in this regard.

Although they are attractive at a more than “democratic” price, and there are plenty of them at any retail outlet, you won’t be able to get away with them. Therefore, perhaps we should remember the saying that we are not such rich people as to buy cheap things twice.

Good branded light bulbs will last many times longer, and you won’t have to change them endlessly.

Lamp options for dimensions

Sometimes there is a “flashing” of the dimensions, or the blinking of the instrument panel lighting when the side lights are turned on. Many blame the size relay for this, but they cannot find it. In the carburetor VAZ 2110 there is no size relay, there is only a relay for high and low beam.

For a fuel-injected car, the relay should be found in the mounting block, where all the fuses are located. Moreover, if the relays burn one after another, you should immediately contact electrical specialists, because this indicates that there is a short circuit somewhere in the circuit, and from here it is not far from the burnt-out car.

Mounting block and relays and fuses

Never, under any circumstances, should a blown fuse be replaced with a more powerful one, or even with a “bug”.

As already said, it is prohibited to drive a car in the evening or at night if the side lights are not on, so we will look for the cause and then eliminate it.

If you are sure that the paths through which electricity passes are in good condition, the first thing to do is check to see if the lamps have burned out. And if they need a replacement, do it.

For the head lamp, the replacement procedure is as follows:

• Open the hood;
• We disconnect the battery, or even better, remove it. After all, we are talking about electricity, which is unsafe;
• From the engine compartment, holding the lamp with your hand, disconnect the wires directly going to the light bulb from the block;
• Remove the rubber cover;
• We move the latch to the side, disengaging the spring from the hook;
• We take out the size bulb;
• We replace it with a new one and put everything back together.

When the replacement is made, we check whether the head lamps are on.

Light bulbs in the rear dimensions on a VAZ 2110 are installed as follows:

• We de-energize the car;
• From the trunk (open) side, remove the contact part of the rear light with lamps. To do this, you need to release the latches;
• Remove the headlight bulb and replace it with a new one.

Do not forget that you cannot touch the halogen lamp with your bare hands. Replacement must be done with gloves. The fact is that dark spots will appear where you touch the light bulb. In addition, it has been proven that such a light bulb burns out much faster.

Replacing the rear light and its elements

Tail lamps for VAZ 2110

Replacement of the rear light occurs according to the following scheme:

• disconnect the wire from the negative terminal of the battery;
• Having opened the trunk lid, unscrew the screws that secure the rear trunk trim (2 pcs);
• having pressed the rear upholstery, bend the side upholstery, which will allow access to the rear light connection parts;
• disconnect the flashlight and the block with wires;
• loosen the nuts that hold the rear light and remove the washers;
• remove the lamp from the car;
• release the flashlight body from the holder and lamps by squeezing the claws of the clamp;
• install a new lamp, performing the steps in reverse order;
• tuck the side trim under the seal.

The rear and front lights of the VAZ 2112 do not light up - how to change the lamp

The reasons for replacing rear lights on a VAZ 2110-2112 can be different and the main ones are the following:

• damage due to unsuccessful parking or an accident
• darkening and fading over time

This repair procedure is quite simple and you can do everything yourself, having only a few tools on hand, the list of which is given below:

I think there is no need to explain once again that the rear lights are located in blocks, one of which is located in the wing, and the second in the trunk lid, so we will consider the removal procedure separately.

instructions with photos and videos

Tuning the headlights on your VAZ-2110 with your own hands will not be difficult if you approach this procedure wisely. In this case, the result will please the owner, and his previously unattractive car will look much more modern. The main thing in this matter is to strictly follow the instructions in order to avoid mistakes.

This brand, as a rule, has optics of such types as “Kirzhach” and “Bosch”. The procedure for dismantling old headlights consists of the following steps:

1. First you need to disconnect the blocks with wires and remove the upper part from the radiator grille. To do this, take a key of 10.
2. After this, you need to remove the boxes with the wires connected to the direction indicators. Immediately after this, the headlight hydraulic corrector is pulled out using a special latch.
3. Next, you need to unscrew the headlight mounting bolts and remove the edge from the place where it engages with the wing.
4. After completing this work, the headlight of the car is carefully pulled out.

We looked at the procedure for removing a Bosch headlight. Now let’s find out how to remove the Kirzhach optics. This work consists of the following stages:

A flat screwdriver is inserted into the corner of the headlight, as well as a utility knife, which is used to cut off the sealant. If you can’t cut with this tool, you can use a hair dryer;

then we proceed to remove the reflector

This is done like this: unscrew 3 bolts around the perimeter and unfasten 4 latches; then the headlights are carefully removed

As we can see, removing the headlights on a VAZ-2110 car is absolutely easy.

The situation is different with the modernization of optics

It is very important to understand what is suitable in a particular case and what is not. Let's try to understand this issue

Do-it-yourself headlight tuning on a VAZ-2110: tinting

After dismantling the old headlights, it is necessary to remove the spring in the hydraulic corrector hole. Next, the adjusting screw is unscrewed, after which the optics module with reflector is removed. Before you start painting the part, you need to clean it thoroughly. A degreasing primer is suitable for this. It is not advisable to paint with enamel, since the temperature inside the headlight is always very high. In this case, heat-resistant paint is perfect.

It is advisable to carry out the painting procedure itself in a dry room, very carefully, keeping this part at a distance from you

Removing the parking light and turn signal

So, first of all, open the trunk lid and open the “window” with Velcro in the place shown in the picture below:

As you can see, there is one nut that needs to be unscrewed. After this, you need to unscrew the self-tapping screw from the side with a screwdriver, with which the casing is attached. It is enough to do this in one place, as shown in the photo below:

And we move it back slightly to gain access to the remaining nuts securing the rear lights.

Now you can start unscrewing the two nuts that secure the lamp:

And then from the back side, you can carefully, without making excessive efforts, pull the lantern so that it comes out:

Since at first we did not disconnect the block with wires, we can do this now:

At this point we can consider half the work done. Now let's move on.

Removing the reverse light and brake light

First, with the trunk open, remove the power plug from the board, as is clearly demonstrated below:

Now all that remains is to unscrew the two nuts, which are clearly visible in the picture below:

And also, as was done in the previous description, we take out the flashlight from the back side. The central pad may be slightly in the way, but you don’t have to remove it if you act carefully:

If necessary, we replace it, and installation proceeds in the reverse order. What can we say about the cost: at the moment, a set of rear lights for a VAZ 2110-2112 is about 2000 rubles, but all this can be bought separately in blocks, that is, two right and two left blocks.
