2018 Kymco Like 150i headlight replacement bulb
« on: September 22, 2020, 07:09:54 PM »
Hey, new to the forum and have a 2018 Kymco Like 150i as noted in the subject.  I have an issue where the "normal" low beam headlight is out, but the high beam is working, so it appears that I need to replace the bulb.  I have a shop that does work on scooters but they want me to purchase the bulb (I'm not comfortable taking apart the front/rear cover to get at the bulb) and then they'll do the replacement.  I don't mind paying for it as I have some other stuff I want to get checked out at the same time.

Can someone point me to an Amazon link/listing for a replacement bulb that is known to be the correct replacement?  I can't find any specifications on the bulb itself -- most places just say to pull it and then match it ...

you may be able to look through your headlight lens at the bulb and see writing on the bulb base. On my S200 I can see the bulb says Philips HS1 35W/35W. Very small writing. I've attached a closeup pic

Get the correct bulb from your Kymco dealer.  Refer to shop manual or maybe even owner's manual for instructions.

Thanks for all the replies!  The dealer I had been going through has pretty much shutdown (not answering the phone, not responding to e-mails, etc) because of Covid, etc, but I managed to finally find another local place to get parts.  It's a bit of a drive, but at least I can get the parts I need (which seems to be more and more of a struggle these days ...)

If you know the bulb specs, seems like NAPA or other auto parts store could get you one?

And, I'm feeling a little peculiar.

Right - all Kymco bulbs are standard auto parts, and any reasonable auto parts shop has them.
