Maintenance
Headlamp Bulb Replacement
1. Remove the air filter. See page 61.
2. Pull the sealing boot away from the back of the bulbs and housing.
3. Press the looped end of the wire bulb retainer clip and swing the end toward the center of
the bulb to release it from the latch tab.
4. With the wire connector attached, pull the bulb out.
Tip:
When servicing a halogen lamp, avoid touching the lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin
leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp. If fingers do touch a lamp,
clean it with denatured alcohol.
5. Disconnect the wire harness. Install the new bulb and secure the retainer.
6. Reinstall the sealing boot. Make sure it seals tightly around the bulb base and lens to pre-
vent condensation.
7. Reinstall the air filter.
Front Turn Signal Bulb Replacement
1. Remove the windshield trim panel. See page 83.
2. Disconnect the wire harness from the socket
before
removing the socket from the lens. Lift the
lock tab on the connector and push the connector
off the socket.
3. Rotate the bulb socket counter-clockwise 1/4 turn
and remove the socket with bulb. Remove the bulb
and install a new bulb. Reinstall the socket and
rotate it 1/4 turn clockwise.
4. Reconnect the wire harness. Be sure it snaps
securely into place over the connector lock tab.
Running Light Bulb Replacement
Replace the running light bulb (innermost bulb) using the same procedure as the turn signal
bulb, but leave the wire harness attached to the bulb socket when removing the socket from
the lens.
IMPORTANT
Disconnect the wire harness from
the socket
before
removing the
socket from the lens.
