Replace a halogen headlight bulb

Only the original H4/HB2 halogen high/low-beam assembly.

A conceptual H4/HB2 halogen headlight bulb is contrasted with the Fit rear LED lamp assemblies that Honda assigns to dealer service. It does not imply an original LED headlight option or show an opening location.
Original schematic. The original halogen headlight procedure does not apply to dealer-service rear LED assemblies. Manual reference

1 Confirm your vehicle

For 2015 Honda Fit · US, 1.5L gasoline. Required equipment: Original H4/HB2 halogen headlight

Select and confirm your vehicle before starting.

Help identify your model and equipment
What is excluded?
  • Other model years and markets; imported Jazz or Fit Hybrid; modified or aftermarket components with a different procedure.
  • Requires confirmed configuration: halogen.

2 Prepare

You can save preparation while your vehicle or equipment is still unconfirmed.

YOUR OBSERVATIONS

Keep the before and after.

Only on this device

Record the bulb specification, retention-window check, weather seal and separate high/low response.

At a later parked lighting check, do both modes still operate without flicker, moisture entry or abnormal aim?

3 Follow the steps

4 Check the result

  • How did the stationary high/low-beam check turn out?
  • Both modes work with the bulb retained, seal seated and connector secure
  • Record only the result you actually observed. A saved web checklist is not confirmation that a vehicle has been repaired.
  • Did both beam modes work after the bulb, seal and coupler were positively seated?
  • At a later parked lighting check, do both modes still operate without flicker, moisture entry or abnormal aim?

Select what you actually observed. If you have only prepared the plan, record that instead.

Stop and get help if

  • Modified / LED assembly, burned connector or inaccessible retainer
  • Still dark, insecure seating, damaged wiring or abnormal aim: arrange lighting service.
  • A part, label, connector or fastener differs from the cited manual; access requires raising the vehicle; you cannot identify the correct component.
