Removing Halogen Bulbs

Do not touch a halogen bulb with bare fingers. Oil from skin leaves a resi-
due, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp. If fingers do
touch the bulb, clean it with an alcohol-moistened towel.

ing from the headlight
assembly.
2. Lift the rubber boot to
expose the bulb.
3. Push down on the spring to
release it from the housing.
4. With the wire harness
attached to the bulb, with-
draw the bulb from the
housing.
5. Grasp the bulb by its metal base and carefully separate the bulb
from the harness.
