Glove Box Lamp Bulb - Removal






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, 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. Open the glove box door.
3. Reach through the window (3) in the instrument panel glove box opening (1) to access the bulb on the side of the glove box lamp and switch unit (2).
4. Pull the base of the bulb straight out of the bulb holder.
