Bulb Replacement

Headlamp

NOTE: Lens fogging can occur under certain atmospheric conditions. This will usually clear as atmospheric conditions change to allow the condensation to change back into a vapor. Turning the lamps on will usually accelerate the clearing process.

  1. Raise the hood and locate the connector behind the headlamp.
  2. Reach into engine compartment and pull red lock out at connector.
  3. Remove the green connector from the back of the bulb by pulling straight back.
  4. Twist the bulb to the left.
  5. Pull bulb outward from assembly

NOTE: These are halogen bulbs. Take care not to touch the bulb with your fingers. Body oils from your fingers could cause excessive heat buildup which reduces bulb life.
