How to Replace a Brake Light: Finding the Right Light
Many Red Bank drivers wanting to know how to replace a brake light ask about finding the correct bulb. There are a few ways to assure you’re replacing your light with the proper one:
- Owner’s Manual: As with many other parts issues, your owner’s manual provides you with all the information you need about bulb size and voltage in the section devoted to lights.

How to Change a Brake Light: Simple Instructions
Once you have the right light, knowing how to change a brake light just means following a few simple steps. Make sure to have a Phillips-head screwdriver:
- Remove Light Housing: With the screwdriver, take out the colored lens that guards your brake light and take the faulty light out.
- Apply Grease: How many Asbury Park drivers does it take to screw in a light bulb? Just one — but a little bit of dielectric grease comes in handy. Place it at the end of the bulb to prevent corrosion and make it easier to remove.
- Replace Bulb and Re-Attach Housing: Once the bulb is in place, just put back on the housing and you’re safe to drive again.
