FORD 2013 Taurus v.1 - Manual (Page 306)

Replacing HID headlamp bulbs (if equipped)
The headlamps on your vehicle use a “high intensity discharge” source.
These lamps operate at a high voltage. When the bulb is burned out, the
bulb and starter capsule assembly must be replaced by your authorized
dealer.
Replacing stop/tail/turn and sidemarker lamp bulbs
Your vehicle is equipped with a tail lamp assembly containing integral
multiple light emitting diodes (LED) for the stop/tail/turn and sidemarker
functions. If replacement is required, see your authorized dealer.
Replacing backup lamp bulbs
1. Make sure the headlamp switch is in the off position.
2. Remove the deck lid trim panel press pins
and carefully pull the panel away to expose
the backside of the backup lamp assembly.
3. Remove bulb socket by rotating it
counterclockwise, then pull it out of
the lamp assembly.
