Replacing a tail light bulb in a Toyota Camry typically involves accessing the tail light housing, removing the old bulb, and installing a new one. Here's a breakdown of the process:
-
Access the Tail Light Housing: This usually involves opening the trunk and locating an access panel or cover behind the tail light assembly. You may need to remove some interior trim pieces to get to it.
-
Remove the Socket: Once you have access to the back of the tail light, locate the bulb you want to replace. Twist the socket counterclockwise to release it from the tail light housing.
-
Remove the Old Bulb: Gently pull the old bulb straight out of the socket.
-
Install the New Bulb: Insert the new bulb into the socket. Make sure it's the correct type of bulb for your Camry (check your owner's manual or a parts store).
-
Reinstall the Socket: Align the socket with the opening in the tail light housing and twist it clockwise to lock it in place.
-
Test the Light: Before closing everything up, turn on your lights to ensure the new bulb is working correctly.
-
Reassemble: Replace the access panel or trim pieces in the trunk.
