Toyota Sequoia Headlight Bulb/Assembly Replacement

To successfully complete this repair, ensure you have enough space to work comfortably. Additionally, gather the necessary automotive tools before you start. Finally, make sure you’ve purchased the correct replacement parts.

Replacing the Headlight Bulb

Inspect the back of the headlight assembly and you’ll notice a rubber gasket. This gasket serves as a humidity seal—remove it carefully. Behind the gasket, you’ll find a wire securing the rear of the bulb in place. Squeeze this wire gently to release the bulb. Install the new bulb, making sure not to touch it directly with your fingers, as the oils from your skin can shorten its lifespan. Reinsert the wire and reattach the rubber gasket.

Replacing the Headlight Assembly

To swap out the headlight assembly, locate and remove the bolts that hold it in place.

Here’s a step-by-step guide:

  1. Start by removing all the bolts along the top of the assembly.
  2. In many model years, there’s also a bolt on the side that needs to be taken out.
  3. Additionally, there’s usually a bolt positioned below the assembly. Depending on your vehicle's specific configuration and your reach, you may need to adjust the blinker assembly to access it.
  4. Once all these bolts are removed, the headlight assembly should come loose.
  5. Take out the old assembly and replace it with a new one. Reverse the steps above to secure everything back in place.

Having headlights that function properly, without cracks, yellowing, or scratches, is crucial for safe driving in various lighting conditions. Follow the instructions provided, and you’ll have a brand-new headlight assembly and/or fresh headlight bulbs in no time.
