To replace one of these bulbs, do the following:
- Open the trunk. See
Trunk
for
more information.
- Remove
the two screws that attach the taillamp assembly to the vehicle.
- Pull the assembly sideways out from the panel so that the locating pegs
on the side of the lamp assembly snap free from the clips.
- Turn the appropriate bulb socket counterclockwise while holding the assembly,
to release it from the housing.
- Remove the bulb from the socket by pushing it in and turning it counterclockwise.
The turn signal bulb must have amber colored glass.
- Install the new bulb into the bulb socket by pushing it into the socket
and turning it clockwise.
- Install the bulb socket into the lamp housing, ensuring that the socket
locks securely into place.
- Ensure that the lamp assembly clips are seated correctly. Fit the housing
to the body, so that the locating pegs snap into the clips.
- Install and tighten the attaching nuts to secure.
