If one of the parking light bulbs in the rear lights does not light, you can temporarily turn on the fog lights.
In the dark, in clear weather, the fog light will have a blinding effect on drivers of vehicles moving behind your car. Therefore, try to replace the side light bulb in the rear light with a working one as soon as possible.
Operations for replacing lamps in the rear lights of cars with different types of bodies are shown in the work Replacing the bulbs in the rear light, removing the light.
On a car with any body type, two-filament parking light and brake light lamps of the P21/5 W type are used.
To replace the low/high beam lamp in any of the headlights of a hatchback vehicle, it is more convenient to remove the headlight (see Removal the headlight). However, with a certain amount of skill, you can replace the bulb in any of the headlights without removing it from the car. When replacing the bulb in the right headlight, you don't need to remove anything else. When replacing the bulb in the left headlight, you may need to remove the battery, but this will reset the settings of the radio and some other car systems. It will be difficult to remove the bulb from the left headlight without removing the battery (although it is possible).
For clarity, we show this operation on the left headlight, removed from the car (on the right headlight the actions are performed similarly).
We turn the cover from the inside of the headlight unit by special protrusions 1/8 of a turn counterclockwise.

On cars with sedan and station wagon bodies, the headlight unit has a different shape, in addition, separate high and low beam lamps are used here. It is possible to replace the low beam lamp only after removing the headlight unit (see Removal the headlight).
For clarity, the operation of replacing the low beam lamp is shown on the removed left headlight (on the right headlight the actions are performed similarly).
The low beam lamp is located under a cover located closer to the wing of the car.
We turn the lid counterclockwise and remove it.
We disconnect the wiring block from the lamp.
We press on the spring clamp of the lamp…
…and we remove it from engagement with the headlight housing.
