Replacing headlamp bulbs

To remove the headlamp bulb:

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

Note size and location of retainer
pins for installation.

2. At the back of the headlamp, pull
two retainer pins up to release the
headlamp assembly.

3. Pull headlamp assembly forward
disengaging the lamp from the rear
retainer to expose the back of the
bulb.

4. Disconnect the electrical
connector from the bulb by pulling
rearward.

5. Remove the bulb retaining ring by
rotating it counterclockwise (when
viewed from the rear) to free it
from the bulb socket, and slide the
ring off the plastic base. Keep the
ring to retain the new bulb.

6. Without turning, remove the old
bulb from its socket by gently
pulling it straight back out of the
lamp assembly.
