The headlights on your Honda CR-V help you be seen in poor weather or darkness, and are required by law to work properly. Changing a dim, flickering, or burned out headlight bulb on your 2011-2016 Honda CR-V is a simple repair that can help you see better while driving. It’s recommended that when changing one headlight bulb, the other should be replaced as well, since both bulbs have been used for the same amount of time and will likely fail around the same age. Failing headlight bulbs on your Honda CR-V can make it difficult for other drivers to see your vehicle on the road, and could put you and others in danger. Our detailed instructions can help you perform a headlight bulb replacement on your Honda CR-V to keep you safe on the road.

These step-by-step instructions and video detail how to replace the headlight bulbs on a 2015 Honda CR-V LX, and the replacement steps will be similar to 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, and 2016 Honda CR-V models. Replacing a burned out or failing headlight bulb helps you see clearly, follow road laws, and lets other drivers know of your vehicle’s presence on the road. If your Honda's headlight bulbs are burned out or malfunctioning, you should replace both headlight bulbs together since they will likely fail at around the same time. O’Reilly Auto Parts carries headlight bulbs, tail light bulbs, and other exterior light bulbs for your Honda CR-V to help you make your repairs.

Park on a level surface… and open the hood.
In the engine bay… at the back of the headlight assembly… a wiring harness is attached to the bulb.
Unplug the harness by pulling back on it gently to work it off the base of the bulb.
Remove the rubber cap from behind the assembly.
Disengage the clip holding the bulb in place… and slip the bulb out.
Be sure not to touch your new bulb with your bare hands.
Oil or grease from your fingers can create hot spots on the glass and cause it to burn out prematurely. Put the new bulb into place in the assembly.
Reengage the clip to secure it.
Reinstall the rubber cap behind the bulb.
Plug the wiring harness into the back of the bulb.
Headlights should always be changed in pairs, so repeat these steps on the other side.
Turn your headlights on to make sure they’re working like they should be.
Close the hood.
And that’s it. You’ll find everything you need for this and other jobs at your local O’Reilly Auto Parts
