MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Lights
When servicing a halogen lamp, don’t touch the lamp with bare
fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that
will shorten the life of the lamp.
WARNING
Poor lighting while driving can result in severe injury or death.
Headlight and taillight lenses become dirty during normal
operation. Wash the headlights frequently to maintain lighting
quality.
Hot components can cause serious burns to skin. Do not service
the headlamps until they’ve cooled sufficiently.
Headlight Lamp Replacement
1. Open the hood.
2. Unplug the headlamp from the
wiring harness (1). Be sure to pull
on the connector, not on the wiring.
3. Turn the lamp counterclockwise to
remove it.
4. Install the new lamp.
NOTE: Make sure the tab on the
lamp locates properly in the
housing.
5. Reinstall the harness assembly into
the headlight assembly.
