Replacing a High-Mount
Brake Light Bulb
1. Open the tailgate. Undo the
two fasteners on the side of
the cover by pushing on the
center of each fastener's head
until the center pops in.
Push.
2. Use a thin, flat blade to
wedge the fastener's head out.
When both fasteners are out,
remove the high-mount brake
light cover.
3. Remove the socket by turning
it one-quarter turn
counterclockwise.
4. Pull the bulb out of its
socket. Push the new bulb
into the socket.
5. Test the brake light to make
sure the new bulb is working.
6. Reinstall the cover.
7. Reset the center section of the
fastener through the fastener's
head. Make sure that the
fingers on the fastener are
folded and flush to the fastener
and that the center section
protrudes beyond the head.
8. Install each reset fastener into
the cover. Secure each
fastener by pushing on the
center until it locks (the center
is flush with the head).
