Always disconnect the negative battery cable before removing the trunk compartment light bulb.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION.)

CAUTION:

  • When inserting the remover tool in the gap between the trunk compartment light and the trunk end trim, the remover tool could interfere with the trunk end trim and scratch or damage it. When removing the trunk compartment light from the trunk end trim, apply protective tape to the trunk end trim.
