NOTE

When replacing a bulb for the front turn 

signal lights and parking lights/front 

side-marker lights, turn the steering wheel 

and change the direction in which the tires 

are pointed to the position where the bulb 

replacement can be done easily.

Turn the steering wheel after starting the 

engine and stop the engine after you finish 

turning the steering wheel.

1.  If you are changing the right bulb, start 

the engine, turn the steering wheel 

all the way to the right, and turn off 

engine. If you are changing the left 

bulb, turn the steering wheel to the left, 

and turn off engine.

2.  Make sure the ignition is switched off, 

and the headlight switch is off.

3.  Turn the screw counterclockwise and 

remove it.
