Equinox / Terrain - Change High Beam Bulbs
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
This video will show you how to change the high beam bulbs in your GMC Terrain and Chevrolet Equinox, which can seem hard to do at first. I will show you how to remove the inner fender liner, and how to access the bulb. Incidentally, this will also show you how to access the front headlight bulb too. It should cover model years 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017. The model used in this video is a 2015 Chevy.

Here are some bulbs, if you need them
9005 standard - amzn.to/2FH4vOp
9005 LED - amzn.to/3nPDQl8
use LED at your own risk. They are very bright and can disrupt drivers

Good job. I really don’t like how GM made it so difficult to replace a headlight bulb. This video will definitely save me some money to get it done at the dealership. Thank you

Glad to hear the video helped, even though the passenger side is giving issues. Hopefully you're able to get it done on another go. Thanks for the great feedback
I have a 2011 Equinox that has the round access cover that is secured with one T20 screw. When the accesses cover is removed and the wheels turned so as to gain maximum clearance, I can reach in and loosen the bulb cover and change the low beam bulbs, which are H-11 for me. As far as the High beams are concerned, I wonder if the high beam bulbs are accessible through that same access hole with out taking the fender liner out? What bulb number is used for the high beams? I think the 2015 and up model GM did away with that access cover and took the fender liner out and maybe the wheel too.

I *believe* the high beams are accessible through the panel, once the low beam cover is removed, since the high beam sits more inside. The bulb for a 2011 Equinox is 9005. You're also right on those fender covers. Officially removed in 2015, but I've seen some late model 2014s without them too

@@NexusAuto they 100% are if you have the ability to do it blind (you don't have space to shine a light in and look...but you can just reach your arm in there and do both bulbs by feel). I just changed all my 2012 equinox headlight bulbs to LED.

Do you know if the 2017 traverse has the same headlights layout like the equinox?

It's not the exact same, but I believe it is similar. I've worked on earlier Traverses and it was similar, so I assume this is the case on a 2017. But I can't 100% confirm

It is pretty much the same, just the light and frame is mirrored. But otherwise, I think it's the same
What year model?

This is specifically on a 2015 model year. I think it generally covers all models from 2010 to 2017, but I could be wrong on that. GM made changes throughout the entire run of these vehicles.
Do low beam. Mine has no access cover or anything
