Nissan Repair: Nissan Altima 2006 brake light, nissan altima, rear view mirror


Question
How do you change the bulb?

Answer
Hi Frank -

Without looking at your car, it is difficult to give exact instructions, however, I will give you the generic answer:

I am assuming you are talking about the regular brake light, and not the "3rd" brake light mounted behind your rear view mirror.

Open the trunk and look behind the tail light assembly. Look for the socket that holds the brake lamp and twist it out. Sometimes you have to remove a plastic cover to access the socket. Once you have the socket out, you can get the bulb out by a simple twist. Installation is the reverse.

Hope this helps -
