EXTERIOR BULBS

Replacing exterior bulbs

Check the operation of the following lamps
frequently:

Headlamps

Tail lamps

Brakelamps

High-mount brakelamp

Turn signals

Backup lamps

License plate lamp

Do not remove lamp bulbs unless they will be
replaced immediately. If a bulb is removed for an
extended period of time, contaminants may enter
the lamp housings and affect performance.

Replacing headlamp bulbs

Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully
and keep out of children’s reach. Grasp the

bulb only by its plastic base and do not touch the
glass. The oil from your hand could cause the bulb
to break the next time the headlamps are
operated.

If the bulb is accidentally touched, it should be
cleaned with rubbing alcohol before being used.

To remove the headlamp bulb:

1. Make sure headlamp switch is in OFF position,
then open the hood. If you are replacing the driver
side headlamp, unclip the electronic module on the
right side of the battery and move it out of the way.

2. Locate the headlamp bulb through the hole in the
upper radiator support assembly.
