Who told you that !!!!...You don't need to disconnect the
battery to replace your headlight bulb....Make sure your
new bulb was cleaned and not touched by your greasy dirty
fingers..that more important than disconnecting the battery

The manual tells you to do that as a precaution. Does it mean you have to do it? Nah, it's not really necessary. But don't blame Nissan motors if you get electricuted (if taht's ever happened)

Like Shing said....
If people sat down for like 10 minutes a day and read the freakin manual...
Most of the questions would be answered

No you don't have to d/c your battery
