Replacing headlamp bulbs (Grand Marquis only)
To remove the headlamp bulb:
1. Make sure the headlamp control is in the off position, then open the
hood.
2. Remove the three pin type retainers and the radiator sight shield.
3. Remove the front parking lamp assembly. Refer to Replacing front
parking/cornering/turn signal lamp bulbs in this section.
4. Remove the headlamp retainer
bolts and the headlamp assembly.
5. Disconnect the electrical
connector.
6. Remove the old headlamp bulb by
rotating it counterclockwise, then
pull it out.
7. To install, reverse the removal
procedure. (Re-aiming the
headlamps may be necessary. For
additional information, refer to the
headlamp aiming section in this
chapter.)
WARNING: Handle a halogen headlamp bulb carefully and keep
out of children’s reach. Grasp the bulb only by its plastic base
and do not touch the glass. The oil from your hand could cause the
bulb to break the next time the headlamps are operated.
Note: If the bulb is accidentally touched, it should be cleaned with
rubbing alcohol before being used.
Note: The headlamp bulb should not be removed from the headlamp
until just before a replacement bulb is installed. Removing the bulb for
an extended period of time may affect headlamp bulb performance.
Contaminants may enter the headlamp where they can settle on the lens
and reflector. Never turn the headlamps on with the bulb removed.
