Jeep Grand Cherokee Headlight Bulb Replacement (2011-2019)

[@inspiringbuilds]

Below is the link to the LED bulbs that last much longer and makes it safer to see on the road: LED Bulbs: amzn.to/3W7auzU Both low and high beams: amzn.to/49kf0B2 Note for both low and high beams: Order the combo H11/9005 (second link above) for 2011-2017 model years and order 2 sets of the H11 (first link) for 2018 and newer model years. *DISCLAIMER: The above links are affiliate links.

Do these LED bulbs work for low beam and high beam? Do you recommend replacing both high and low halogens with these bulbs? Thanks!

@@Soulith88 Hi Chris, yes and here is the link for replacing both the low and high beams: amzn.to/3S4bWBM

I watched several 2014 Jeep GK LED install videos and this is the best, especially for people like me who don't work on cars for a living. Removal of the parts was easy to follow and I appreciate seeing the force needed to remove the air intake parts. Most other videos gloss over this issue. I had no concerns when I removed mine.

[@inspiringbuilds]

@@timmc49 Thanks so much, glad it was helpful! Quick questions, should I make a part 2 video that shows how to make the DIY PVC bulb removal tool and did you upgrade to LED?

I’ve got a 2019 high altitude and instead of a cover that twists off it’s a rubber boot that you just need to pull off. In case anyone was wondering. Thanks for the video :)

Fat shout for this comment! I should have read it before trying to twist. Would’ve saved me 10 minutes of frustration 😊

Yes and that lousy rubber boot just falls apart if your vehicles is older than 5 yrs

[@lk8427]

That rubber boot (I also have a 2019 GC) is horrible. Makes it much harder to get in their to get at the bulb. I got my driver side one replaced (which was out). I gave up on trying to replace my passenger side (which is still working).

[@rvan7350]

Great video I saved $200 off what the dealer would have charged me. Driver side was much harder due to the dealer pinching the harness against the bulb housing when they replaced the bulb in 2023. I had to gently disconnect the harness holding the bulb BEFORE twisting to remove the burnt-out bulb. You need pretty good strength to twist out the old bulbs and having smaller hands helps. I recommend wearing a set of surgical gloves to prevent skin loss on your hands. I did replace the halogens with the LED's recommended in this video from Amazon for about $40. They appear to be much brighter and whiter than the halogens. I can't wait to give them a try them out on a dark country road tonight. Thanks for posting this video its great!

Might help some on making the pvc tool as that seems to be the way to go; I knew what you meant so I was good without it.

[@GaryPiazza]

I must have the only 2017 Grand Cherokee on the planet that has a setup not allowing bulb changes. Driver side low and highs not working. Mine looks nothing like this and when pulling that round plastic cover off after romoving the air box, there appears to be a metallic braided harness attached to a plug that's attached to a shiny square metallic box about 2 inches by 2 inches. It will not budge. The high beam has NO wire or connector anywhere to be found. Looks like a sealed unit. On some of these Jeeps, do you have to replace the entire headlamp?

[@inspiringbuilds]

Hi Gary, I’m sure that’s very frustrating. Most total headlight failures are caused by a bad component like a fuse, relay, or module. Wiring problems can also cause both headlights to stop working. It’s possible that the previous owner installed aftermarket lights, which is why it’s different but you should not have to replace the headlight assembly.

[@GaryPiazza]

@@inspiringbuilds I checked the fuses, they are fine. Tested voltage at the harness and have voltage. Found out that some models you have to replace the entire headlamp unit. These HID units are a ton of fun. Might have to take it to the dealer I'm afraid.

[@GaryPiazza]

@@inspiringbuilds Forgot to say thanks. You're reply is much appreciated. Also, I'm the original owner.

[@inspiringbuilds]

Hi Gary, knowing you’re the original owner and they are HID saves a ton of time and makes perfect sense. HID’s come with a small metal box and braided wire harness as you mentioned. The trick that many people don’t talk about is the metal box has two tabs with one on each side. A tab on one side is higher and a tab on the other side is typically lower. Feel for the tabs and push the low side tab up and push the high side tab down. This may end up saving you upwards of $450 at the dealership. 👍

@@KendallWalsh-p7r Sliding off the ECU as shown in the video would have had no impact of throwing a CEL. You can hook up a OBDII scanner to pull the code or take it to a local auto parts store to pull the code for free. You can also pull the negative battery terminal to reset the light and if it comes back then there is an issue that needs addressed.

[@steak8]

Quick tip: When you put the new bulb on and are testing it before inserting it back into the housing, make sure it is not touching anything else nearby. That halogen bulb gets super hot super fast and can melt nearby wires, hoses and fingers if you are not careful.

Note the 2018 bulb covers do not screw off and the 2018 passenger side is much more congested with the radiator in the way. I also recommend using OEM if you don't want to change both. The 2018 passenger side is very difficult and I'd rather not bother, but now I have a yellow OEM and a white LED

[@jeffpanos1570]

This is great, but ive been struggling with twisting the bulb out. I dont have big hands, however, I can only get about 2 to 3 fingers in there to twist the bulb out. The metal frame behind it is preventing me from getting much room (2019). I see the PVC tool you posted a pic of and i did something similar. But there's no way i have a enough room for even that length of a PVC, which then makes it harder to grab and twist. I'm very annoyed by this, but will keep trying.

Very good video! I changed the low beam headlights in my 2014 Grand Cherokee with LEDs. The low beam works fine (much brighter and now a nice white light) except I don't get the Daytime Running Light feature from that new LED. I suspect the LED will only come on with full power and, therefore, won't light up with reduced power supplied for the DRL feature. The DRL feature is selected in the 8.4 inch infotainment system. So, for now I use the "parking lights" as DRLs (which were also changed to LED lights) and they are OK as a daytime light. I put a switchback LED (Amber/White) in the turn signal slots and that comes on when the parking lights are activated using the interior light switch to the left of the steering wheel. Has anyone else solved this DRL LED light feature as I described here?

[@inspiringbuilds]

Hi Tim, thanks for watching. I spent a while looking into this for you. Did you buy the bulbs I have linked as I checked multiple JGC’s with no issues? I know this may sound silly but get a helper or I test in the daylight against a dark colored car that I could see my headlights. Your DRL’s will only turn on when in gear so when you put it in park and get out to check then they will show off. Stay in the car and point your lights against the dark colored car and test that they turn on in gear and then turn off in park. I confirmed they worked with this method. Lastly, in Uconnect go to settings - lights - daytime running lights and ensure the box is checked. Hope this helps and look forward to having you watch future videos. 👍

[@timmc49]

@@inspiringbuilds Thanks much for the reply and I appreciate your research time very much! I should have mentioned that I installed an upgrade Uconnect 8.4 inch system from Infotainment that has CarPlay a few days before upgrading the lights to LEDs. The new Uconnect system can take a day, or two, and sometimes more to learn from my Jeep's onboard computer what functions I have turned on/off as well as heated seats, heated steering wheel, etc. And I think getting used to the LED lights is one of those "learning" functions as well. I had the DRL function checked in "System" section, but they did not come on in the first day or two of driving the car with these new LEDs. Now they come each time I put the transmission in Drive. Also, the turn signals worked just fine on the first use. Now they still work but I get a hyer-flash of the turn signal indicator on the dash, but the actual signals flash at the normal interval. Kinda odd. And I have gotten the turn signal "Left or Right Bulb Out" warning a couple of times as well, but not always. And yes, I installed the LEDs you listed with your video and I am happy with them. I may need a special harness to solve the turn signal issue, but as long as the exterior signals are operating correctly, I'm going to research that a bit further since I am not presently endangering myself or another driver. Again, thanks for feedback - much appreciated, my friend!
