Turn the bulb socket 1/4
turn counter-clockwise,
while pressing
it firmly.
Remove
the wire connector
from the bulb by lifting
the
lock tab and pulling it away
from the plastic base.
To reassemble, attach the wire connector (A) to the
plastic base making sure the lock tab
(B) is over the lock
(C). Install the bulb by putting the small tab (D) into the
small notch
in the lamp (E). Turn the bulb socket 1/4
turn clockwise to lock into place. When reinstalling the
headlamp assembly
into the headlamp mounting panel,
make sure
the tab is properly engaged in the panel slot.
Taillamp Bulb Replacement

side
of the rear of the trunk
are two plastic nuts.

Look at the silver-colored band inside the fuse. If the
band is broken or melted, replace the fuse. Be sure
you
replace a bad fuse with a new one of the identical size
and rating.
There are additional fuses located behind the right sound
insulator panel on the passenger side. If these require
service, see your Buick dealer.
Maxifuse/Relay Center
To check the fuses in this underhood fuse center, turn
the two knobs
1/4 turn counterclockwise and remove the
cover. There is a chart inside the cover that explains the
features and controls governed by each fuse and relay.
The PASS-Key
II@ fuse is located in the right side relay
center.
Headlights
The headlight wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the underhood fuse center. An electrical overload will
cause the lights to go on and off, or in some cases to
remain off. If this happens, have your headlight wiring
checked right away.
Windshield Wipers
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker and a fuse. If
the motor overheats due to heavy
snow, etc., the wiper will
stop until the motor cools. If
the overload is caused by some electrical problem and
not snow, etc., be sure to get it fixed.
Power Windows and Other Power Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power
windows and other power accessories. When the current
load is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens and closes,
protecting the circuit until the problem
is fixed or goes
away.
