Replacing a Headlight Bulb

Your car has halogen headlight

bulbs, one on each side. When

replacing a bulb, handle it by its steel

base and protect the glass from

contact with your skin or hard

objects. If you touch the glass, clean

it with denatured alcohol and a clean

cloth.

Halogen headlight bulbs get very hot

when lit. Oil, perspiration, or a scratch

on the glass can cause the bulb to

overheat and shatter.

1. Open the hood.

Except for CX model with manual

transmission

If you need to change the head-

light bulb on the driver's side,

remove the power steering

reservoir tank by pulling it out of

its holder.

2. Remove the electrical connector

from the bulb by squeezing the

connector on both sides to unlock

the tab. Pull the connector straight

off.
