Front Side Marker Bulb - Installation






BULB - SIDE MARKER

CAUTION: Always use the correct bulb size and type for replacement. An incorrect bulb size or type may overheat and cause damage to the lamp, the socket or the lamp wiring.

NOTE: The following procedure applies only to vehicles manufactured for the North American market. Vehicles manufactured for export markets do not have a bulb, socket or wiring provided to illuminate the front side marker compartment of the front lamp unit. The front side marker lens is present, but serves only as a reflector on export market vehicles.





1. Align the base of the bulb with the front side marker bulb socket (4).
2. Push the bulb straight into the socket until the base is firmly seated.
3. Align the socket and bulb with the keyed opening on the back of the front lamp unit housing.
4. Insert the socket and bulb into the housing until the socket is firmly seated.
5. Rotate the socket clockwise about 30 degrees to lock it into place.
6. Lower and snap the cover back over the access hole at the front of the wheel house splash shield.
7. Lower the vehicle.
8. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
