Renault Logan 1 and 2 low beam lamp replacement

The Renault Logan model has become widespread due to its successful combination of reliability and quality at an affordable price. In fact, the budget car also turned out to be inexpensive to maintain. Moreover, many car enthusiasts service cars of this class on their own. As for the Logan model, this car was no exception.

Work such as changing oils, filters, spark plugs or Renault Logan low beam lamps can be done in a regular garage. Next, we will look at how to change a Logan low beam bulb, as well as what subtleties and nuances should be taken into account as part of this procedure.

Replacing the Renault Logan headlight bulb of the first generation

Remove the plastic cover (for clarity, the headlight mounting bolts are unscrewed and it is pushed forward). Disconnect the wire block from the headlight lamp. Remove the rubber sealing cover (shown on the removed headlight for clarity). By pressing the spring clamp of the lamp, we disengage it from the reflector hook... and remove the headlight lamp from the headlamp housing.

Attention! The headlight lamp is halogen. You should not touch its glass bulb with your fingers, as traces from them will lead to darkening of the lamp when heated

You can remove dirt from the flask with a clean rag soaked in alcohol. Install the new H4 headlight bulb in the reverse order.

Carefully disconnect the cable drive of the light corrector;
We unscrew the three screws holding the headlight unit and tilt it to the side;
Press the locking device and remove the cover;
Carefully separate the wire connection block;
Below the main lighting lamp we see the size socket. To change it, you can get to it without removing the bumper and headlight housing, but only by carefully inserting your hand between the headlight and the engine;

On the left headlight we turn the socket clockwise, on the right - counterclockwise and remove it freely;
Remove the lamp.
Renault lamps have the article number W5W. We check the number and brand and put it in place.
We put the headlight unit back together, connect the wiring block, install the light control cable and the bumper and fasten the housing.

Attention! Do not touch the lamp bulb with your hands - work with cotton gloves to avoid rapid failure of the lamp.

If you are a fan of bright lighting solutions, we advise you to choose a new technology lamp made on the basis of LED elements, of which there are at least 15 pieces. They are sold in almost all auto stores, but their cost is high and ranges from 2,700 rubles. If there are no catalog options from 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015, you can buy analogues from 2010, 2016 and 2017.

The headlights on all generations of Logan cars do not differ in size. On the 2006 and 2007 models, the turn signals had frosted glass, from 2008 to 2012 - ordinary transparent glass, and from 2012 to the present - an orange reflector.

Replacing the side light bulb for Renault Logan first generation

Before replacing the side light bulb, it is more convenient to first disconnect the wire block from the turn signal lamp socket (see above).

Turn the side light lamp socket clockwise (for the right headlight - counterclockwise)... ...and remove the lamp socket from the headlamp housing.

We remove the baseless W5W side light lamp from the socket and replace it with a new one.

Fog lights

The factory equipment for PTF includes lights of class H11 12V 55W. The maximum service life of the optical element is 15,000 runs. Replacing a Logan fog light bulb is more difficult than changing the standard head optics or changing the dimensions.

The sequence for replacing the Renault Logan fog light bulb is:

The protective cover (shield) on the bumper is removed.
The connection wires are disconnected.
The fog lamp is removed.
A new consumable is installed.

For PTF, optics exceeding the technical specifications are not recommended: 12V 55W. This threatens to melt the plastic diffuser.

Fog lights are often replaced with LED lights. Such optics provide a stronger luminous flux in the yellow spectrum and have a longer service life, but their price is significantly higher compared to standard lights.

Of the entire Renault lineup, the best car for the budget segment is still Logan. Inexpensive special maintenance, simple repairs and quick replacement of mnemonics have made it the most popular in the domestic market.

conclusions

Based on the above, we can conclude that replacing the side lamps in the front and rear headlights is quite simple, the main thing is to follow the sequence of actions.

The process of replacing Renault Logan side lamps is not fundamentally difficult, but the technique for working with rear and front headlights is different. The essence of the differences:

access to headlights;
method of disassembling lamps;
you will need different types of light bulbs.

From a technology point of view, working with side lighting devices located on the front and rear sides of the car represents separate activities. There is no significant difficulty, you just need to clarify the procedure in advance and follow the instructions.

Lamp type (H4)

And they are designed for both low and high beams, since they have two filaments. This type of lamp is convenient because for a complete inspection of the headlights in a car, it is enough to change only 2 lamps. But the most significant drawback lies in the price: such a lamp is more expensive than the “separate” H1 and H7.

Choosing a lamp manufacturer

The most popular and reliable lamps today are considered to be H4 lamps from Philips, Osram and Narva, but they are also the most expensive! Our portal has accumulated a considerable number of positive reviews about these manufacturers, so each car enthusiast must independently determine for himself and give preference to one or another manufacturer based on his financial capabilities and technical needs.

However, it is only worth noting that despite the absolutely identical power of 55/60 W on the lamps, some manufacturers indicate + 30\50% in the packaging. This means that this product is equipped with an increased luminous flux, which will require the most precise adjustment of the headlight itself so as not to blind drivers in oncoming traffic.

Replacing the low beam lamp

So, we have figured out what lamps you need, then the process of replacing it directly follows. We will change the light bulb using the example of the left headlight, since replacement involves removing the battery. The light bulb on the right headlight changes in the same way.

First of all, we will need to remove the battery, for this we will need two keys 10 and 8 to remove the terminals from the “+” and ground, as well as a socket head 13 to remove the mount of the battery itself (if there is one). Particular attention should be paid to the fact that first the wires are removed from the “-” ground, and then only from the “+”.

After the battery has been removed from its place, we see the headlight unit itself, in the center of which a plastic cover is installed, with a lock on top. To remove the cover and get directly to the light bulb, you need to press the thumb of one hand on a kind of tab (latch), and at the same time pull the cover towards you from below

Since plastic is quite pliable, no difficulties should arise in this process.

When we removed the plastic cover, we see a rubber seal and a block with wires that is connected to the light bulb. First, you should carefully remove the block, holding it only by the body, and then by the sealing cover itself.

The final touch remains. Before us is a spring clamp that fixes the halogen lamp, holding it securely in its tenacious paws. However, don't be afraid of this! You can remove the latch as easily as putting it in place; you just need to remove it from the “hook” with the reflector hook by pressing your finger on its upper part.

Next, we remove the lamp itself from the headlight unit, holding it by the metal legs and replace it with a new lamp, installing it in the reverse sequence similar to removal.

Replacing dimensions or turn signal

If you have a need to replace the front turn signal or replace the side light bulb, then it is worth saying that replacing them is much easier. The lamp socket that needs to be replaced simply needs to be turned counterclockwise and the burnt out light source removed.

On a note!

The low and high beam lamps installed in the car are halogen. This suggests that it is strictly not recommended to touch their flasks before installation and operation .

You will have a reasonable question: Why?! And we will answer you! Grease stains that your fingers leave on everything they touch, and in our case on a halogen lamp, have a very adverse effect on the service life of this very lamp. Everyone knows that such lighting devices have a very high temperature during operation, so if you accidentally touch your light bulb with your hands, you can rest assured that at the site of this contact, black soot will appear, which will subsequently dim and turn black even more, heating up the light bulb itself. flask, which can subsequently lead to its swelling and destruction.

Therefore, installation work should be carried out with gloves, and if this is not possible, then make sure that it is clean before installing the lamp.

Now you yourself know that in such a matter as replacing a light bulb, there is nothing complicated and the entire process from the beginning to the completion of all work was within 15-20 minutes, which allows you to carry it out simply in the parking lot near your home.

Replacing the low/high beam, turn signal, clearance lamp Renault Logan (2008-2010)

Let's start with the low/high beam lamp.

1. Press the tongue and remove the plug.

2. Disconnect the connector by simply pulling it towards you.

3. Remove the rubber boot. It fits tightly because it fits over the light bulb.

4. Press the spring clamp on both sides and move it to the center. The place to click is marked below.

5. Remove the lamp.

6. Install a new lamp. It is installed in only one position due to three guide antennae.

7. Snap the spring clamp of the lamp.

8. We put on a rubber boot. Make sure it fits well around the edges and on the lamp.

9. We put on the power connector.

I recommend checking the condition of the connector before putting it on. Sometimes the contacts inside burn out and the connector falls apart in your hands. In this case, it must be replaced.

10. We put on and snap on the cap. Make sure that the wires from the lamp power connector fall into the groove at the bottom of the plug.

Turn lamp

1. The power connector from the lamp does not need to be disconnected.

2. Turn the base counterclockwise and pull it out.

3. Press the lamp, turn it counterclockwise and pull it out.

4. Insert the new lamp and turn it clockwise.

5. Insert the base and turn it clockwise.

Dimension lamp

1. Turn the base counterclockwise 90 degrees and remove it.

2. Remove the light bulb from the base and insert a new one. The light bulb simply pulls up.

Also, make sure there is a rubber seal on the base; in our case there is none.

3. Insert the base with the lamp into the headlight and turn it clockwise.

Possible malfunctions of the light switch and their elimination

In Renault Logan, the light switch becomes unusable from time to time. This usually occurs due to wiring problems. They may stop turning on all the lights at the same time, and, for example, only the side lights.

To fix this problem, you need to disconnect the negative from the battery, and then remove the cover from the steering wheel and unscrew the switch. Disconnect the terminal by pressing the clamp on both sides. Inspect the part to determine which wire has broken. Most often, this happens with black and red. To repair the regulator, you will need to replace both of these wires.

High beam

Conveniently, all the light on the Renault Logan - both high and low - is provided by one element of the headlight. The electronic control unit, having received a signal from the switch button, changes the lighting options.

In addition to the head light, side lights are installed here. Replacing dimensions step by step:

The headlight housing is removed.
The pad lock is released.
The wire block is disconnected from the light bulb socket.
The marker rotates clockwise for the left headlight and counterclockwise for the right headlight.
The lamp in the socket is removed from the headlight unit and freed from the socket.
The element is being changed to a new class PY21W.
The cartridge is installed in the reverse order.

A rubber gasket is used as a seal for the cartridge. It is recommended to update it after each removal.

When replacing a lamp at the rear of a car, there are also some features that must be taken into account when carrying out the work.

Here, before starting work, you will need to disconnect the negative from the battery.
Unfold the trunk lining.
Disconnect the wiring harness from the rear markers.
Disconnect the power harness
We unscrew the two screws, for this you will need a screwdriver with an asterisk (two plastic nuts, if it is a Logan 2 phase).

Find the burnt out lamp by lightly pressing it, turn it and remove it from the socket. Insert the new lamp and turn it until it stops.
After this, the lantern can be assembled in the reverse order of removal.

When carrying out this work, you must be careful, as you will have to come into contact with other elements of the system.

It is not recommended to touch the lamps with your fingers. The work must be done with clean gloves.

Side light circuit

It's very easy to replace the side light bulb yourself.

In order to save fuel and reduce the load on the generator, daytime running lights are now often included in this circuit, which makes it quite complicated.

You might be interested to know whether it is possible to use LED lamps in a car? Read more in this article

The standard wiring option is quite simple and consists of the following elements:

circuit breakers;
front and rear position lamps;
central or key switch;
Let's take a closer look at the first two elements.

Circuit breakers

Sometimes blown fuses are the reason why the side lights do not light up on one side or another.

There are usually two fuses in the circuit, for the left and right sides separately. Since the light bulbs consume little power (4-5 W each), the fuse rating is small, only 5-7.5 A.

Where are the side light fuses located?

In the same place as the others, in a single block. On most modern cars, this block is located under the instrument panel next to the steering column, or, more often, on the lower left, under a plastic trim.

In the latter case, it is enough to remove the cover protecting the unit, mounted on latches. On the back of the cover, as a rule, there is a sticker with information about which circuit this or that fuse protects, indicating its rating.

The biggest inconvenience in this case may be insufficient knowledge of the English language - it is in this language that inscriptions are usually made, even on Korean and Japanese cars.

Lamps

Externally, the headlight bulb is marked W5W, but today LED sidelight bulbs are increasingly used.

Their advantage over incandescent lamps is their greater durability, and the price of both largely depends on the manufacturer. The most famous products are Philips, Osram, Tesla.

Watch the video about LED bulbs for side lights:

Moreover, as the “Behind the Wheel” test showed, expensive products do not always justify their price.

Also, quite often, the front dimensions are equipped with light bulbs with a metal base, but this, one might say, is a thing of the past.

For rear position lights, the most common lamp is with two spirals - 21 and 5 (or 4) W.

The 21 W coil lights up when you press the brake, i.e. In this case, the light bulb serves as a brake light, while the lower power spiral works as a side light.

Just as with any other lamps, purchasing a more expensive product does not guarantee any exceptional durability.

The reliability and safety of Renault Logan is beyond doubt, as is the operation of all its systems. Decent lighting equipment is available for maintenance, and after carefully reading the recommendations, you can easily replace head lighting equipment yourself, including side lamps.

What do you need to repair Renault Logan yourself?

Medical gloves (wear when handling new light bulbs)
Side light bulbs W5W (4 pcs) (as in the photo)
Phillips head screwdriver (for removing rear markers)

Please note that if you handle the glass of the lamp with greasy or dirty fingers, the lighting will fail 5-10 times faster than the stated service life. Therefore, we take the lamps out of the packages and install them strictly wearing medical gloves.

Now we move on to our Renault Logan, replacing the lamp is carried out from the front side, and then from the back.

Required Tools

Replacing side lamps on a Renault Logan will require the use of the following tools and materials:

clean fabric or rubber gloves;
4 pieces of halogen bulbs with W5W base;
alcohol for cleaning flasks;
a screwdriver with a cross blade;
keys for 8 and 10;
to remove the battery you will need a 13mm socket;
extension;
rags.

The presence of gloves allows you to keep the bulbs of halogen devices clean. Oily hand stains cause rapid formation of dark spots and lead to failure of the light bulb. The light becomes dim and uneven, quickly losing brightness. In this case, the service life is reduced by 5-10 times from that declared by the manufacturers.

What kind of light bulbs will you need?

First, let's find out which lamps are used as side lamps in Renault Logan. They are the same in both generations. In the headlights, the manufacturer installed W5W incandescent devices with a power of 5 W as side lights:

In the rear lights, one device (also incandescent) with two spirals - P21/5W - is responsible for the side lights and the brake light.

If you wish, instead of conventional incandescent devices you can install LED ones of the same size.

Diode analogues W5W and P21/5W

And now for the tools and accessories. We don't need anything special:

Phillips screwdriver (only for Renault Logan I);
cotton gloves;
replacement light bulbs.

Articles and parameters of suitable lamps

The side lights of Renault Logan are implemented with halogen lamps with a W5W socket for the front headlights and P21/5W for the rear ones. This is the factory configuration, which is prohibited from changing according to current rules. However, many users prefer to install brighter and more economical LED bulbs. Designs with 13 crystals are commonly used.

Important! They consume less energy and have an increased service life. This option is not suitable for replacing front headlights, since they are installed in the headlights together with the headlights, which become very hot. LED devices cannot work in such conditions and quickly fail. This feature should be taken into account when choosing suitable lamps.

How to replace the left headlight bulb of a Renault Logan car with your own hands

1. To dismantle the battery, you will need two keys 8 and 10 to remove the terminals from the battery, and a socket head 13 to remove the battery mounting bar. Battery Keys for terminals Socket head2.

First, unscrew the ground terminal fastening with your own hands! And then remove the “+” terminal.

Pull out the block with the wires, and then pull out the seal

Please note that the seal has straps on the sides. If you pull on any of the straps, the seal can be removed very easily and quickly. Such nuances can save valuable time when replacing low beam lamps on a Renault Logan

Using your finger, press the spring bracket that secures the light bulb. That is, the staples need to be brought together and pulled out toward you. There is very little room for maneuvering, so it is better to entrust this work to someone with thin fingers

We take out the light bulb

Change the light source and reassemble in reverse order

We recommend: Changing the low beam lamp on a Renault Duster: part numbers and lamp type

In fact, the work is not difficult. It is quite possible to save money on a trip to a car service center and service your Renault Logan yourself; you already know which low beam lamp is used. Such light sources are available in any auto parts store.

How to replace

Removing the optics on Logan 2 varies depending on whether it is a left or right headlight. If you need to change the part on the left, you need to remove the battery. In some cases, car service technicians replace the lights on the left headlight without removing the battery.

Replacing the halogen on the right is carried out without removing the battery.

The replacement procedure can be described in stages:

AB dismantling. The tools you will need are: a 13mm socket wrench and a 10mm and 8mm open-end wrench.
Using keys, the wires are removed, first from the ground (the “-” sign), then from the positive. The socket head presses out the battery fasteners.
There is a plastic cover in the center of the headlight unit, the lock is located on top. Press the latch with your finger, press the lid and pull it towards you.
The power supply block with wires and the sealing cover are removed.
By squeezing the hooks of the latch, the light bulb is removed from its regular place in the headlight.
Installation of a new lamp is carried out in the reverse order.

The specified length of the bulb in this model is 82 mm. The headlight housing has standard recesses into which metal tabs located on the base should fit. This will ensure the optimal position of the part relative to the reflector and diffuser.

Replacement process:

After removing the battery, the headlight cover with the lock will become visible.
Place for photo 9
To get to the light bulb, press the latch and the cover is pulled out.
Under the cover there is a rubber seal and a lamp socket. These items should be removed.
The lamp is removed by the metal legs, and a new one is installed in its place.

Attention! It is under no circumstances permissible to touch the bulb with your fingers: this will cause grease to get on its surface, which during operation will burn, evaporate and settle on the optics, deteriorating the quality of lighting. Use only clean gloves.

Assembly is carried out in reverse order. After completing the installation of all elements, you need to turn on and check the headlights.

The reason that the light from the low beam lamps has gone out could be a broken fuse or a stuck relay that is responsible for the functionality of the front optics. In such cases, the relay may need to be cleaned or the fuse replaced. If after replacement the car owner is not satisfied with the lighting operation, it is necessary to adjust the lighting equipment by selecting the optimal direction of the beam cone.

Which lamps to choose

The choice of low beam lamp directly depends on the financial capabilities and personal preferences of the driver. Philips and Osram lighting devices are considered more popular among drivers. Narva also has good reviews. These lamps are durable and reliable. However, they also have the highest price.

If you wish, you can choose cheaper analogues, but it is worth remembering that the working life of inexpensive copies is much less. Also, due to the design features, after installing such lamps, you will need to spend more time fine-tuning the light flow.

Before purchasing a light bulb, you should decide what type of lighting fixture will be used.

Incandescent lamps

The simplest and most unpretentious type of lighting elements. They consist of a sealed flask filled with an inert gas, a tungsten filament and electrodes. The lighting quality is quite poor. Almost the entire resource is wasted on heating the headlight. However, the cost of lamps is in the lowest category.

Halogen

A more advanced type of lamp. The main difference from the previous type is the halogens added to the inert gas. It is due to them that the efficiency of the device significantly increases. Such lamps illuminate the road much better while driving.

Xenon or gas discharge

They work without the use of a tungsten filament due to an electrical discharge between the electrodes. They have excellent light quality and serve the owner for a long time. They are very expensive and are prohibited by law (except for factory equipment). There is a fine for the driver for installing xenon lamps on his own.

LED

They combine the best qualities. The high level of illumination and long service life of the devices have brought them to a well-deserved first place among automotive lamps. The picture is spoiled by too high a price.

When choosing a low beam bulb, you should also pay attention to the manufacturer

Bosch

According to car owners, light bulbs produced by Bosch have all the necessary qualities and pleasantly please the driver. In terms of lighting quality, these lamps are 90% brighter than standard ones. Drivers note that this immediately catches the eye after installation.

High performance provides a powerful flow of light even with not very new and clean reflectors. The direction of the light beam allows you to clearly see even distant objects.

In addition, original Bosch light bulbs have a much longer service life than most standard fixtures. The luminous flux has a pure white light, which does not tire the eyes even when driving for a long time. Due to the quality of light, many drivers refuse to install xenon.

The main disadvantage, according to car owners, is the high cost.

Osram

Osram lamps have increased light output. They provide decent lighting quality even with not very good reflectors. Additional configuration is required during installation. Otherwise, the headlights will blind oncoming drivers, which negatively affects traffic safety.

The cost of the lamp is slightly higher than that of a standard one, but this is fully compensated by the quality of work. The main disadvantage is the short service life.

Philips

Lamps from this manufacturer are invariably bestsellers. Bright, clean light provides a greater viewing range while protecting the driver's eyes from fatigue on long trips. The lamp service life is several times longer than the average operating period of lamps from other manufacturers. High quality and great demand ensured the considerable cost of the devices.

NARVA

Excellent quality low beam. At the same time, the cost of the lamp is not too high. Not bad for drivers who drive within the city at night. High beam is significantly worse than that of more expensive analogues. This is one of the most significant disadvantages of lamps from this manufacturer.

Koito

Despite the lack of more or less clear information on the packaging (all labels are in Japanese), these lamps demonstrate good qualities during operation. They perfectly illuminate the road with low and high beams, do not dazzle oncoming drivers, and demonstrate a considerable service life.

Amplified lamps usually have higher quality illumination, but their lifespan is much lower than average.

Let's sum it up

Taking into account the above information, it becomes clear that replacing a low beam lamp on a Logan is not a complicated procedure. However, it is important to perform all actions in the correct order, and also take into account the features and nuances discussed above.

We also recommend reading the article on how to polish car headlights yourself. From this article you will learn how and with what to polish car headlights, as well as what nuances you should pay attention to.

It should also be separately noted that the choice of lamps and their quality will directly determine the efficiency of the headlights. It should also be understood that in addition to the light bulbs themselves, the quality of light is directly affected by the adjustment of the car’s headlights, as well as the condition of the optics themselves.

In practice, only correctly selected lamps, precise adjustment and clean and transparent optics make it possible to obtain the desired result in terms of illuminating the road and at the same time not dazzle oncoming drivers.

Finally, we note that if the headlights are cloudy and scratched, the solution in such a situation is to polish the car headlights. This solution allows you to obtain a dense luminous flux directed at the road, avoid dazzling drivers of oncoming cars, as well as improve the appearance of the headlights themselves, reduce fatigue when driving at night, etc.

Choosing a manufacturer

Phillips lighting fixtures are factory installed in Renault. Elements in a standard installation show a long service life - up to 40,000 km. After replacement, a similar part will last up to 10,000 km.

Among the companies specializing in the production of H4 type car lights are:

Philips;
Narva;
Osram;
Bosch;
Koito;
LynxAuto;
Tesla;
Lighthouse;
Dialuch.

Halogen optics from these manufacturers are characterized by high quality and good lighting properties. For Renault Logan lamps, a power of 55/60 W is provided. A separate package may include a technical mark +30/50%. This marking indicates an increase in luminous flux by a certain percentage.
