BULB
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, occupant classification system, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Support the courtesy lamp unit housing (1) with one hand while firmly grasping the flange on the outer circumference of the lens (4) with the other hand, then pull the lens straight down to unsnap it from the housing.
3. Pull the bulb (3) straight out of the courtesy lamp socket.
