- Ratchet with a 10-millimeter socket
- Replacement brake light bulbs
Instructions:
Step 1: Park your truck in a safe location and turn off the engine. Engage the parking brake to keep the vehicle in place.
Step 2: Locate the brake light housing. It is usually located at the rear of the vehicle, either on the tailgate or the fenders.
Step 3: Open the tailgate or the access panel to expose the brake light housing.
Step 4: Use the ratchet and 10-millimeter socket to loosen and remove the bolts holding the brake light housing in place.
Step 5: Once the bolts are removed, carefully detach the brake light housing from the vehicle. Be cautious as there may be electrical wires attached to the housing.
Step 6: Inside the housing, you will find the brake light bulb. Simply twist the bulb counterclockwise to remove it.
Step 7: Inspect the brake light bulb for any damage or burnout. If the bulb is damaged, replace it with a new one of the same type and wattage.
Step 8: Reattach the brake light housing to the vehicle by securing it with the bolts that you removed earlier.
Step 9: Test the brake lights to ensure they are working properly. Press the brake pedal and check if the brake lights illuminate.
By following these steps, you can successfully turn off the brake light on your 1993 Nissan pickup truck and replace the brake light bulbs if needed.
