bulb replacement

How do you change a turn signal bulb in the front on a 92 Buick Regal custom?



You hold the bulb and have 15 friends rotate the car?

If you park it on a hill, you'll need fewer friends...just enough to get it started rolling it down the hill. :-)

Check the owner manual.

Kimbo,

Poke your cocconut in the trunk, pull back the trunk trim in the corner. You may see a light bulb socket that twists & pulls out. If you see no socket then the tail light probably has to be removed. You may see some wing nut type fasteners holding the tail light in. remove them, then the light assembly will come out of the body. Once the tail light is pulled away from the body you will see all the bulb socket.

Check all the bulbs seeing you'v got it apart. These newer cars the bulbs like to turn black to the point they are so dim you can't see any light thru them.

I'f you'd stop signaling when no one is behind or in front of you the bulbs would last longer.

Good Luck..

Forgot to ask if you mean the front or rear?

Her post indicated the front turn signal.

Speaking of front turn signals. There sure are a lot of them burned out on the newer GM's these days. I see a half dozen or so with a "one-eye" turn signal DRLs every time I go out. What's up with that?

You right her post did say " front " now that I re-read it. My eyes must be getting weaker or the brain getting slower in remembering what I just read.

At least she now has some idea how to change the rear bulbs.
