For 1990-2009 cars

### Removal Procedure

Caution: Unless directed otherwise, the ignition and start switch must be in the OFF or LOCK position, and all electrical loads must be OFF before servicing any electrical component. Disconnect the negative battery cable to prevent an electrical spark should a tool or equipment come in contact with an exposed electrical terminal. Failure to follow these precautions may result in personal injury and/or damage to the vehicle or its components.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

Notice: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage many solid-state electrical components. ESD susceptible components may or may not be labeled with the ESD symbol. Handle all electrical components carefully. Use the following precautions in order to avoid ESD damage:

• | Touch a metal ground point in order to remove your body's static charge before servicing any electronic component; especially after sliding across the vehicle seat.

• | Do not touch exposed terminals. Terminals may connect to circuits susceptible the ESD damage.

• | Do not allow tools to contact exposed terminals when servicing connectors.

• | Do not remove components from their protective packaging until required to do so.

• | Avoid the following actions unless required by the diagnostic procedure:

- | Jumpering or grounding of the components or connectors.

- | Connecting test equipment probes to components or connectors. Connect the ground lead first when using test probes.

• | Ground the protective packaging of any component before opening. Do not rest solid-state components on metal workbenches, or on top of TVs, radios, or other electrical devices.

2. Remove the instrument panel cluster. Refer to Instrument Cluster Replacement in Instrument Panel, Gages and Console.
3. Remove the bulb from the rear of the instrument cluster.

### Installation Procedure

1. Install the bulb into the rear of the instrument cluster.
