To replace the fog lights, simply unscrew the three fixing screws. When removing the fog light cover, pry it from the inside outward with a flat-head screwdriver, applying slight force to release each clip one by one. To prevent scratching the car paint, you can wrap the screwdriver tip with a thin cloth. Below is some relevant information about the Changan Eado fog lights: 1. The fog lights on the Changan Eado can be turned on by pressing the blue button. The front and rear fog light switch is located on the headlight switch—the outer section turns on the headlights, and the inner section activates the front and rear fog lights. 2. In adverse weather conditions such as fog, snow, heavy rain, or in environments filled with smoke and dust, front fog lights are essential for illuminating the road ahead and ensuring driving safety. 3. In recent years, fog lights are often integrated into the front bumper in terms of design. The purpose of fog lights is to make the vehicle visible to others in conditions of reduced visibility due to fog or rain, so the light source must have strong penetration. Most vehicles use halogen fog lights, while xenon fog lights are a more advanced option. Fog lights must be installed below the bumper, as close to the ground as possible, to ensure their effectiveness. If mounted too high, the light cannot penetrate the fog or rain to illuminate the road (since fog is generally thinner below 1 meter), which could lead to dangerous situations.

I found it quite smooth when replacing the front fog lights on my Changan Eado myself. Prepare a screwdriver and new bulbs, and make sure not to buy the wrong model since it's for the Eado. After parking and turning off the engine, disconnect the negative battery terminal for safety. Locate the fog light position under the front bumper, unscrew the fixing bolts to remove the old light, being careful not to damage the wiring harness. Install the new light by aligning the connector, plugging it in firmly, and then tightening the screws. Reconnect the battery and test if the lights turn on properly. I often do maintenance and found that cleaning the fog lights when they're dusty can improve brightness. I recommend doing it yourself to save time and hundreds in repair fees, as 4S shop charges can be high. Regular checks can prevent unexpected replacements.

I always enjoy using some tricks when working on car lights. Prepare a Phillips screwdriver and gloves to open the fog light housing. Park the Yidong car on level ground and take photos of the wiring connections before removing the screws to prevent misconnection or accidental contact. After removing the old bulb, clean the oxidized layer on the connector contacts to make the new bulb more durable. During installation, be gentle and align the clips properly without forcing them. Before testing the lights, check if the sealing ring is tightly sealed to prevent moisture. Doing it yourself allows you to learn the basics of car circuits and gives a sense of accomplishment. Remember to choose genuine parts for better cost performance when buying accessories.

First time changing the Yidong fog lights, I was a bit nervous but it's actually not difficult. After parking and cutting the power, prepare the new bulb. Locate the fog light position under the car, loosen the screws, carefully remove the old light without scratching the paint. Install the new light, plug in the wires, secure them, then turn on the light to check if it's working. If not, plug it in tighter. Using the lights less often can extend their lifespan, saving money and hassle.
