1.Locate the turn signal bulb:
Open the hood of the car and locate the turn signal assembly on the front of the vehicle. It is usually located behind the headlight assembly.
2.Remove the housing cover:
The housing cover is usually held in place by screws. Unscrew and remove the housing cover to access the turn signal bulb.
3.Remove the old bulb:
Remove the burnt-out bulb by gently pulling it straight out of the socket. Avoid touching the new bulb with your hands, as the oils from your skin can shorten its lifespan.
4.Install the new bulb:
Insert the new turn signal bulb into the socket and turn it counterclockwise until it is secure.
5.Replace the housing cover:
Reinstall the housing cover and tighten the screws to hold it in place.
6.Test the turn signal:
Turn on the headlights and check if the turn signal is functioning properly. If the new bulb does not light up, check the bulb's connection or replace the bulb with another one.
