Replacing headlamp (high beam/low beam) halogen bulbs

1. Make sure headlamp switch is in the off position, then open the hood.

and connectors.

electrical connector and remove it
by releasing the locking tab and
pulling it straight down.

turning it counterclockwise and
pulling it straight out.

WARNING: Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep
out of children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base

and do not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated.

Install the new bulb(s) in reverse order.
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.
