How Do I Replace Fog Light Bulb - 1999 L400 Spacegear/Chamonix

[CanadaNZer]

Hi there,

I recently bought a 1999 L400 Chamonix from Rising Sun.

The Headlight and white fog light bulbs recently blew on the right hand side (driver's side). Headlight first and then the white fog light).

Steve from Rising Sun sent me what bulbs to buy and pictures of what each fuse if I need them - thanks Steve.

I have bought the bulbs and was able to replace the headlight one. It is working now.

How do I replace the fog light bulb? Do I have to remove the surrounding casing that is screwed on? Two of the screws are worn - not sure I will be able to get them undone. I was able to remove the circle grill that protects the fog light.

I am not a techie so simple speak please!

I'm concerned that the bulbs might continue to keep blowing due to an electrical issue. Steve said that if the bulbs blow out quickly or the fuse does, to delete the DRL module - can someone please explain this? Would that stop the Daytime Running LIghts from working? Would this then make the lights non-compliant?

Thanks
Claire

Steve just also supplied me this:

He also said:

"Delete DRL means to see what happen if u disconnect it.
If it cause a problem continuously, u may need to replace another one from Lordco.

Be careful for electrical work.
It may cause other issue if not done professionally."

Know my limits here :) Will update re success of replacing the bulb.
