Glove Box Lamp: Service and Repair
AI9 Replacing Bulb in Glove Compartment Lighting:
For type of bulb, Refer to: "Lighting and Horns : Specifications" Specifications
- Ignition off.
- Open the glove compartment lid and remove the stop arms.
- Empty the glove compartment and unscrew the four screws. Carefully pull out the glove compartment.
- Pull the black anti-glare sleeve off the bulb holder.
- Remove the faulty bulb. Turn the bayonet connector a 1/4 turn.
- Install a new bulb which should light immediately as the glove compartment is open. If it does not light check the bulb holder and switch. Replace if defective.
- Assemble in reverse order. Ensure that the anti-glare sleeve aperture is aimed at the glove compartment window. Do not tighten the screws too hard as the plastic is fragile. Push down the stop arms on the lid so that they lock into position.
- Check that the bulbs light.
