1. Gather the Necessary Tools and Materials:
- Phillips head screwdriver
- Replacement light bulb (check your vehicle's owner manual for the specific size and type)
- Pliers (optional)
2. Locate the Control Head:
- The control head is the main unit that houses the radio and other controls in the dashboard.
3. Remove the Control Head Trim:
- Using the Phillips head screwdriver, carefully pry off the trim around the control head.
There may be screws or clips holding it in place.
4. Disconnect the Wiring Harness:
- Once the trim is removed, disconnect the wiring harness that is connected to the control head by pressing on the release tabs and gently pulling it out.
5. Remove the Control Head:
- After the wiring harness is disconnected, remove the screws that are securing the control head in place. Slide the control head out gently.

- Inspect the control head for the burned out light bulb. It's usually located near the radio display or buttons.
7. Replace the Bulb:
- Gently remove the burned-out bulb by pulling it straight out. Be careful not to drop it. Insert the new bulb into the socket by pushing it in until it's secure.
8. Reinstall the Control Head:
- Slide the control head back into its place and secure it with the screws you removed earlier.
9. Reconnect the Wiring Harness:
- Connect the wiring harness back to the control head. Double-check that it is properly connected.
10. Reattach the Trim:
