Replacing the low beam bulb on a Daewoo Nexia
A burnt-out low or high beam lamp on the road is a rather unpleasant thing, especially on a remote provincial highway.
Many owners of Daewoo Nexia, after reading the user manual, panic and refuse to carry out the replacement, entrusting this task to the guys from the service station.
We responsibly declare that rumors about the prohibitive complexity of replacing lamps on Nexia are greatly exaggerated and now we will be convinced of this.
Changing the low beam lamp on Nexia N100
The first generation of Daewoo Nexia did not raise any questions regarding the maintenance of optics. The 8-valve engine was quietly placed in the engine compartment, allowing any work with optics to be carried out. The algorithm for replacing a low/high beam lamp on a first-generation Nexia is simple:
- Disconnect the negative terminal from the battery.
- Turn the plastic cover counterclockwise and remove it from the headlamp.
Turn the cover counterclockwise and remove it.
- We find the contact block and disconnect it from the base, move it to the side so that it does not interfere with the wiring harness.
- We snap off the spring clip that secures the lamp to the headlight housing.
Disconnect the connector, disengage the spring clip and lift it up. - We take out the burnt out lamp.
We take out the burnt out lamp. - Carefully, without touching the bulb, install a new lamp and assemble the headlight unit in the reverse order.
We put the new lamp in the wrong place and assemble everything in the reverse order.
16-valve N150
On a 16-valve car, the low beam lamps also burn out and have to be replaced.
It’s not at all necessary to remove the front bumper and headlights for this, just arm yourself with patience and get started:
- The right lamp is relatively easy to remove. To do this, unscrew the air filter housing, remove the air intake and get full access to the right headlight unit. The lamp is changed as easily as in the hundredth Nexia. Remove the cover of the air filter. Remove the seat. We gain free access to replace the lamp.
- Remove the terminals from the battery and remove it completely.
To access the left headlight bulb, you need to remove the battery and electronic control unit. - Now access to the headlight is blocked by the electronic engine control unit. Let's take it off too.
- To do this, unscrew two nuts and one bolt securing the ECU housing with a 10mm socket.
- We move the ECU to the side.
Unscrew the ECU housing and move it to the side. - We get full access to the headlight unit and change the burnt out low beam lamp.
We replace a burnt out lamp.

This is the kind of lamp we will need.
Lamp type - H4 .
Conclusion
As you can see, the process of replacing low beam lamps in the first and second generation Daewoo Nexia is somewhat different, but everything can be done with your own hands in a few minutes. Good luck and smooth roads!

Workflow Description
Let's look at how to properly organize a replacement in order to carry it out quickly and efficiently; there is nothing complicated here and no special knowledge or professional equipment is required.
Step-by-step description of the work
It is necessary to perform actions in the following sequence:
- First of all, open the hood, secure it and remove the terminal from the battery so that in case of unexpected situations a short circuit does not occur in the system and you do not get an electric shock.
- There is a plug on the back side of the housing behind the low beam reflector; to remove it, you must turn this element counterclockwise; do not try to pull the cover towards yourself, you may damage the threads or even break the housing.
- The next part that needs to be disconnected will be the electrical connector; grab its body and, shaking it to the sides, disconnect the contacts. Sometimes this is difficult to do because the elements are stuck to each other, but there is no need to pull them out by force, you can damage something, carefully loosen the knot, this usually helps.
Important! Never disconnect the connector by holding the car wires, otherwise you may damage them or tear them out of the block, and you will have to carry out additional repair work.
- The low beam lamp on the Nexia is fixed with a special spring clip, which is released as follows: feel for the two bent elements and disengage them from the protrusions on the body. After this, the latch folds back and does not interfere with operation.

- Then everything is simple: the light bulb is taken out by the base and a new one is put in its place. The most important thing in this case is not to touch the glass part of the product, as particles of fat from the skin will remain on it, which will burn at high temperatures and cause darkening on the flask.
Features of replacement in N150
Replacing the low beam lamp on a Nexia N150 is done in a similar way, with the only difference being that due to the design of the engine, access to the housing is difficult, so the following preparatory work is additionally required:
- Near the right headlight, you need to disconnect the air intake and release the fastenings of the air filter housing, after which these elements are moved to the side and replacement can be carried out.
- As for the left side, everything is a little more complicated here, however, the work is also done quite quickly: first, the fixing elements are released and the battery is removed, after which the three ECU mounting bolts are unscrewed by 10 mm, and this unit is moved to the side.
Replacing Daewoo Nexia lamps
Drivers of Daewoo Nexia cars quite often change the headlights on their cars. They pursue different goals. Some are for tuning their car, others are for practical purposes, so that it shines better at night, and others are out of necessity. The need lies in the fact that, for example, the contacts of one of the headlights have become loose and it simply does not shine, or it has been involved in an accident.
To do this, you need to at least take out the headlight and disassemble it. This article will describe in detail how to correctly and effortlessly remove headlights on the Daewoo Nexia N100 and Daewoo Nexia N150.
The fact is that the fastening of these parts on these two models differ significantly. On the first Nexia, replacing the headlights is very simple, you don’t need to crawl anywhere, all the bolts and fasteners are in an accessible place for a screwdriver and your hands.
With Nexia N150 the matter is much more difficult.
If one of the bulbs, for example, high beams or turn signals, has burned out, then do not rush to remove the entire headlight unit on the Nexia N100. Detailed instructions on how to remove and install new lamps without removing the headlight unit:
- Turn the plastic cover counterclockwise and remove it from the headlamp
- Disconnect the electrical connector from the lamp
- Unclip the spring clip securing the lamp
- Carefully remove the lamp
- Install the new lamp in reverse order
Unfortunately, this instruction is only suitable for Nexia first models. In the second one, you won’t be able to dig into it like that. There is, perhaps, an opportunity to remove the lamps without removing the headlight only on the right side, after first removing the air filter housing. On the left side, everything is much worse.
It is very difficult to get to the left headlight unit in the right way; this is exactly the case when it is easier to remove the entire headlight unit, because in addition to the battery, the Daewoo Nexia N150 also has an engine control unit (ECU) next to the headlight unit. Therefore, on this model, lamps can only be replaced when the headlight unit is removed.
If, nevertheless, you decide to change the lamps without removing the headlights on the Daewoo Nexia 2, here are the detailed instructions:
But, again, it is best to raise the headlights themselves on this model. Usually, to remove this part, you need to remove the bumper, too, since one of the headlight mounting bolts is located behind it. But we will offer a method that allows you to remove the headlight without removing the bumper, although this will require a couple of tools that not everyone has. Detailed instructions:
- First, unscrew the accessible headlight mounting bolts;
- Next, you need to find an extension screwdriver attachment, which looks like a cable in a plastic sheath, or a wrench;
- We push the knob into the crack between the headlight and the bumper. We put a 10mm socket on the knob and unscrew the hidden mount for the headlamp. To avoid scratching the bumper cover, place sheets of paper in the gap;
- We shake the headlight, remove it, and then disconnect the plug.
Replacing lamps on the rear headlights of Daewoo Nexia
Fortunately, the rear of the car has not changed much in terms of optics, and therefore you should not have any problems replacing the rear headlights. This operation will take no more than an hour to complete. If you have steady hands and a lot of desire, you can do it in 20 minutes. Detailed instructions:
- So, first you need to place the car on a level surface and open the trunk;
- Now you need to disconnect the negative (-) terminal wire on the battery;
- Unscrew the two plastic wing nuts securing the rear light protection (in the trunk);
- Pull the tab to remove the 4 pistons securing the rear light protection;
- Remove the rear light protection fabric itself;
- Squeeze the two fasteners securing the light bulb holder;
- Remove the lamp holder by pressing lightly and then turning it counterclockwise;
- Install new lamps. Be sure to install only lamps of the same power as specified in the vehicle's operating instructions;
- Inside the headlight unit you can change the lamps for the side lights, direction indicators, lights when engaging reverse gear and brake lights;
- The parts are assembled in the reverse order from disassembly.
As you can see, to remove lamps it is not always necessary to remove the headlights themselves, although sometimes this is simply necessary. Replacing both front and rear lamps will take you no more than half an hour. I hope this article was useful to you.

Many owners of this model are thinking about how to make Daewoo Nexia headlights better. The above article describes a simple, modern method that has been fact-checked several times.
An inexperienced driver of a standard Nexia may not realize that the car’s lighting has objective disadvantages. The same cannot be said about experienced motorists. When driving different cars, they often complain about the insufficient power of the standard Daewoo Nexia headlights. The brightness of the n150 head optics is really not enough even in new cars that have recently rolled off the assembly line. What to say about the technique of used and tarnished lenses.
The root of this situation lies in the electricity settings. For some reason, Daewoo designers made the logic of the system somewhat unusual and incomprehensible. If the battery is 12.5V, only 11 bulbs go to the bulbs, in other words, noticeably fewer. In fact, 10 percent disappear, it is not clear where.
The troubleshooting process will take several hours. It is better, of course, to have a basic understanding of the structure of electricity and devices. Additionally, you will need the ability to solder and determine the voltage of the circuit. The time and energy spent will translate into a safer and more comfortable night ride.
To quickly understand whether you need to change the wiring of your Daewoo Nexia 150, you will need a regular sensitive multimeter. We measure the battery voltage and store (record) the data. When the low beam is flashing, measure the lamp cover at the connections. If, when comparing the 2 numbers obtained, you find a difference of 1.5 V, this is untapped potential that is easy to use. In this case, the operation described below has a positive effect on the efficiency of the optics.

To improve the Daewoo Nexia n150 headlight, you need to purchase accessories for you:
The approximate amount of necessary costs if you do the work yourself is 350 rubles.
Most of them at least remotely imagine working with a soldering iron; many have held it at least at one point. With the relay situation the opposite, the subject is familiar to the units. But mastery of the basic principles occurs instantly, enthusiasm and the desire to create miracles.
In a four-pin switch, the two main contacts are the positive and negative points, in other words, the power points for the device. You can bring it directly from the battery or try to find the "plus" in another place so that everything works with the ignition on. The third link is the manager. Voltage applied to it causes a corresponding click and redirects power from the main contacts to the fourth. On devices, contacts are usually labeled with standard numbers, so don't be upset when you see 87 or 30 in the annotation.
You must isolate the connection as carefully as possible, using whatever method you wish. The main thing is to check the full density of the conductor.

This concludes the preparation of the devices. Further work on modifying the Daewoo Nexia n150 headlights is located in the engine compartment and will take a few minutes.
This material is intended only to familiarize you with the standard electrical system of the Daewoo Nexia. Under no circumstances should you interfere with the design of a car unless you are completely confident in your knowledge and abilities. When all the vibrations occur, it is always better to contact a professional auto electrician. This function can simply be performed by specialists from any car service center. Naturally, you will have to pay extra for this, but you will get a guaranteed result.

You can get it without removing the battery.
Tell me, I need to replace the low beam lamp, but I can’t disconnect the electrical connector of the wiring from the lamp socket. I’m afraid to pull with great force, I’ll suddenly tear out the lamp along with the spring clip, maybe the connector has a latch? Thank you in advance.
I can say that there are no clamps there, I pulled loosely without fanaticism, they just fit very tightly and everything worked out.

Left lamp: Remove the engine control unit with a 10mm tube (2 nuts and 1 bolt). You unscrew the lid, release the spring locking mechanism, and take it out. Changed it 4 times!!! Because light bulbs are branded lighthouse threshing floor. Right lamp: I don’t remember - I changed it once, because the light bulb is kyrkoryx.
I think I removed the air duct.
I changed it like this: the headlight is secured with two screws on top and two nuts on the bottom. so =) you can quickly get to the nearest nut by unscrewing three screws using a Phillips screwdriver. from the central grille on which the Daewoo sign is removed by pulling it towards you.
There is no way to get to the far nut!!!!!! We don’t try to remove the bumper; it’s long and tedious! verified. We pull the headlight towards ourselves and break off the ear that is held in place by the far nut; this does not affect the tilt and position of the headlight.
That's it =) now you can safely remove the headlight and change any of the bulbs! The developers need to give it a two.
RASH I changed the lamps in the same way for the first time in the garage. I removed the radiator grille, broke one ear of the headlight, etc. but if it’s fast, there’s no other way...
There is no need to break or remove anything!!!! On the left headlight, you simply open the cover and, slightly rocking the block, pull it towards the Akum. On the right, you simply pull off the rubber air duct from the plastic one, which is attached to the radiator, and bend it up (rubber) and open the lid and, slightly rocking the block, pull it towards the filter. Business for 2 minutes!!!
After all that has been done, we install philips premium and forget about the procedure for a year and a half)))))

Price?
According to the results of the driving test, these lamps are optimal in terms of price-quality-light ratio. I checked the normal ones, definitely better than the lighthouse, the Mayakovsky ones can be taken in overall dimensions
My low beam is shining too close, is it because of the bulbs or not?
Try adjusting it, it helped me. After the procedure it became really comfortable to drive.

High beam doesn't work...
It was as if nothing had happened. They did not turn off and by removing the key from the ignition, however, they should not have.
I had to remove the negative terminal from the battery. I didn’t find any sedition: There is nothing, except that everything that could fall off in the switch fell off and was lying around in the grease. I assembled it, took it to the car, and parked it, but the turns wouldn’t turn on.
He pulled it out, brought it home and took it apart and put it back together again. In the car, the right turn turned on, but the left turn did not. Moreover, the down left turn signal switch refused to be pressed at all.
And then I specially opened the faq, hoping for his help. I specifically went there because I knew that for a hundred years they had described the disassembly of this switch with photos.

How to replace a lamp on Daewoo Nexia
Home » Repair and service » How to replace a lamp on a Daewoo Nexia
Articles
Light plays a very important role in a car of any brand; it is forbidden to move without it in the dark and in conditions of limited visibility, so you should constantly check the performance of the system.
In this review, we will look at how to replace a low beam lamp on a Daewoo Nexia, since there are quite a lot of cars of this brand, and the question of how to carry out the work correctly arises quite often.
It is worth noting that it is not so difficult to carry out the replacement yourself, even if we are talking about the N150 modification, in which access is limited, and many craftsmen recommend removing the headlights, but we will figure out how to do it easier.
In the photo: car owners often complain about poor low beam on the Nexia, we will look at how to improve it
Causes of bad light and ways to solve them
Of course, there can be a lot of reasons, we will look at the most common of them, which you can deal with yourself:
Replacing light bulbs | Standard 55-watt options often do not provide the required brightness due to a design flaw in the reflector. Experienced car owners recommend using Philips Vision Plus lamps with an indicator of +60% illumination, this can significantly improve the quality of the luminous flux, the only negative is the high price and shorter service life, but this is the norm for this type of product |
Adjusting the headlights | On the motor side of the body there are two adjusting screws that move the beam left and right and up and down, with their help you can make adjustments (how to do this is described in other articles on this site). It is important to set according to the instructions, otherwise you will blind oncoming drivers |
Keeping it clean | Due to the fact that the light in this model is not very powerful, even minor dirt on the glass causes visibility to deteriorate, so periodically wipe the headlights, and if the road is long, it is advisable to stop every 50-100 km in order to wash or wipe dirt |
If the low beam goes out | If the low beam on the Daewoo Nexia does not light up, we can recommend the following: when both headlights do not work, the cause will most likely be either the steering column switch or the fuse box. It is necessary to check all contacts using a multimeter; the operating instructions will help you understand the system better |
Conclusion
Replacing low beam lamps in a Daewoo Nexia is a simple process if you thoroughly understand its features and are careful. The video in this article will help you visually see the process and understand some of the nuances even better.
Lamps in low beam headlights are perhaps the most frequently replaced part of any car, and the Daewoo Nexia is no exception. However, in order to make the right choice, you need to know what characteristics the standard installed units have, what type of light bulb is better to use - a standard halogen or a more powerful diode, what are the parameters of the units of the most popular brands - Bosch and Philips. Let's look at these and some other features in more detail.
NEXIA new headlights
the headlights of the DAEWOO NEXIA , and it was decided to install new lamps.
Selection of lamps for headlights DAEWOO NEXIA
As you know, the headlight of the DAEWOO NEXIA car (Daewoo Nexia) of older editions is provided using block headlights.
The following lamps are installed in each headlight unit:
- Side light bulb W5W 5 Watt;
- High/low beam lamp H4 60/55W with a power of 60/55 Watts;
- Turn signal lamp P21W 21 Watt.
A similar set of lamps was installed on most older domestic cars. The H4 60/55W high/low beam lamp is shown in Fig. 1.
Fig.1. High/low beam lamp H4 60/55W 60/55 Watt
Due to the fact that one of the lamps burned out (apparently the daytime driving with the headlights on was affected), it was decided to install new lamps. By the way, the “original” lamps turned out to be of high quality, produced by a renowned manufacturer.
The following could be read on the lamp base:
OSRAM BILUX 64193 GERMANY 12V 60/55W H4 U 37R (E1)
In accordance with modern trends, it was decided to install lamps with white light “under xenon”.
We considered lamps from several manufacturers, but in the end the choice fell on lamps manufactured by OSRAM.
The minimum service life of such lamps (minimum lifetime), measured using various methods, is 200 and 400 hours, respectively.
Here's how the manufacturer describes these lamps:
Start of quote
COOL BLUE HYPER - crystal white light
OSRAM COOL BLUE HYPER lamp with a color temperature of 5000°K produces a unique white light that will transform any car and make it an object of universal admiration. Increased brightness compared to a conventional lamp allows you to better distinguish markings and road signs, increasing safety.
In addition, being as close to natural light as possible, the OSRAM COOL BLUE HYPER is more comfortable for the eyes and does not lead to driver fatigue.
Features and Benefits
- Stylish, bright white light 5000°K, 15% whiter than standard xenon lamps
- High-contrast lighting of road surfaces, signs and markings
- Light color as close to natural light as possible
- Stylish headlight looks for design-conscious drivers
- Highest OSRAM quality
End of quote
The appearance of the headlight lamps is shown in Fig. 2. The painted bulb of the COOL BLUE HYPER lamp is clearly visible.
Fig.2. Standard headlight (left) and COOL BLUE HYPER
By the way, while the lamps for the headlights were being selected, one of the side light lamps burned out, so these lamps were also replaced at the same time. Instead of W5W side light lamps, LED lamps with a white glow were installed.
Replacing head and side light bulbs
The lamps were replaced independently and did not cause any difficulties. Although the repair instructions recommend removing the air filter when replacing lamps on the right side, in practice it turned out to be enough to remove the air pipe.
In principle, all operations performed when replacing lamps are quite simple.
The headlight cover is removed. To do this, just turn it counterclockwise.
The wiring harness block is disconnected from the lamp.
headlight lamp holder is compressed and rotated and the lamp itself is removed.
The socket assembly with the side light lamp from the headlight. Then the lamp is removed from the socket.
Assembly is carried out in reverse order.
Do not touch the bulb of a halogen lamp with your fingers. It is better to work in new cotton gloves without rubber inserts on the fingers. Fatty traces on the bulb of a halogen lamp are sintered at high temperatures and reduce the luminous flux. |
You can remove accidentally left grease marks from the bulb of a halogen lamp using a clean cloth moistened with alcohol.
