Replacing brake/tail/turn/backup lamp bulbs

The brake/tail/turn/backup lamp bulbs are located in the tail lamp

in the OFF position and then open
the liftgate to expose the lamp
assemblies.

2. Remove the two screws from the
lamp assembly.

3. Carefully remove the lamp
assembly by pulling it rearward to
disengage snap features on the
outward side of the lamp.

4. Twist the bulb socket
counterclockwise and remove from
lamp assembly.

5. Pull the bulb straight out of the
socket and push in the new bulb.

6. To complete installation, follow
the removal procedure in reverse
order.
