How to replace HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY (headlamp) on Hyundai Santa Fe 2013-2017

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

This is a fast-paced tutorial for replacing the headlight assembly (sometimes referred to as headlamp or housing) on a 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. The vehicle shown in this video is equipped with the optional HID headlights and auto leveling. Make sure you are aware of your lighting package before you order your parts!
To replace the headlight bulb itself you do not need to remove the complete assembly. But removing or replacing the HID ballast WILL require the removal of the complete assembly.
This can be a costly service at the dealership due to the labor involved in removing the front bumper cover (sometimes referred to as the front facia). You will need to replace the front bumper cover to replace a broken or bad fog light (fog lamp).
Here is a link to the headlight assembly I installed in this video

I always perform repairs according the factory service manual. You need to have all the information (toque specs, testing procedures and schematics) to insure you've pinpointed the actual problem and to insure your vehicle is safe after you've completed your repairs. You download high quality factory service manuals here: shrsl.com/1llp5-11y0-aya4
Here is a list of tools I use in this video in order of which they appear (links are for similar tools):
10mm socket - amzn.to/2NGZJkg
#2 Phillips screwdriver - amzn.to/2Nq8gtd
12mm socket - listed in kit above
I use an electric ratchet in this video instead of a standard ratchet. It is not required to use an electric or air ratchet for this repair but it definitely cuts down on repair time. Here is a link to an affordable electric ratchet - amzn.to/2GxwSvU

    Thank you so much. After way too much hunting for bumper removal (need to replace lower bumper cover), and seeing this video in search results numerous times, I finally decided to click on it hoping to see some portion of bumper removal. Sure as shit, it's the first thing you did. Thanks so much. Do you take tips? 🤣

    2013 santa fe. (Stupid H11B bulbs that even O'Reilly didn't have in their catalog). The high/low gears appear to be out of sync so when I raise the low beam, the high beam is now pointing at the roof of that 2 story house...UGH. Is there a way to correct this issue? Also do you have a video on removing the H11B socket and rewiring to a H11?

    Every car has manual adjustment screws on the headlight. If you looked at all you'll have seen up/down etc written in the black plastic. Funnily enough, they are for aiming each light... 🤦🏻

    Hi there, quick question? If I only want to replace the fog light bulbs can I just swap them out by accessing the panel from the bottom? or do I have to remove the full front panel? thanks

    You should be able to just do it from the under side without removing the bumper

    You do not have to remove the entire bumper just to replace the headlamp assembly. However this is still a great video for the front bumper removal and acess to the fog lamps.

    Or watch the diy repair videos. They have resistors that fail. Fiddly job but nearly free to fix. Better than $600 per light
