how do you replace a burned out check engine bulb for a 03 grand cherokee laredo?

Answer
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Place the tilt steering wheel in its fully lowered position.
Using a trim stick C-4755 or equivalent, gently pry each of the four corners of the cluster bezel away from the instrument panel far enough to disengage the four snap clips from their receptacles (CLUSTER BEZEL REMOVE/INSTALL).
Being certain not to scratch the instrument cluster lens with the two snap clips on the lower edge of the cluster bezel, roll the top of the cluster bezel rearward over the top of the steering column.
If equipped, reach behind the cluster bezel to access and disconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector for the headlamp leveling switch from the switch connector receptacle.
Remove the cluster bezel from the instrument panel.
