Exclamation HELP! Projector Lamp out!

Problem: Passenger projector lamp is out.

Question: How do you replace this lamp?

Note: The only help the search was is if my LEDs were burnt out, the LEDs are fine, it's the projector lamp. If you give me advice on how to search for burnt out LEDs, please, feel free to kill yourslef.

I don't remember which Gen headlights these are but here's what they look like:

those are 1st gen. I would call who ever you bought them from and tell them that one of them is out and see what they can do about it.

It could be a lose wire, try wiggling around the wires to see if it turns out. If that doesn't help try switching the ballast with the drivers side to see if it starts to work, if it does then you have a bad ballast. Also have you checked the bulb to see if it's burnt out?

To change the bulb: Remove headlight from vehicle, take off rubber boot on back of "dead" light, move wire clip so it disengages. the rest is pretty self explanitory.

Check the wires first though, those have a tendancy to come loose on that gen.

Also this should be under the Appearance section not 2.0

1.) Those are the 1st Gen. of the Projector Halo Headlights.
2.) To replace the bulb if you have halogen bulbs follow steps 3-6; If you have HID's than follow steps 3-6, skip 7, finish with step 8
3.) Remove headlight (you should already know how).
4.) Look at the back of the headlights, and you will see a big black rubber "cover". Pull that cover off (pull it towards the wires).
5.) You will than see a wire clip, push that in so it disengages (thanks Yelloeye).
6.) Pull out halogen bulb.
7.) Replace with a H1 bulb.
8.) Replace with a H1 HID bulb of your Kelvin.

Let me know if you have any more questions/concerns.
