'91 Q45 Front Corner Light Removal

[timatt]

I am trying to change a bulb for my parking lights. Can someone enlighten me how to remove the front corner light assembly? This is the assembly that holds the parking light and turn signal and is located immediately outboard of the headlamp assembly. From the top under the hood, I removed the black plastic cover then removed the phillips head screw holding the assembly. The assembly is still held in somehow. I don't want to pull too hard and break something. Is there another fastener? Where would that be and how is it accessd???Thanks

See the maintenance section of your owner's manual, or the FSM. There is a push connector (male) on the back of the signal unit. It goes straight into a female socket on the mounting behind it. A surprising amount of pressure is needed to remove, or install,it.

Wiggling from left to right while pulling out will be the easiest way once you remove the screw.

Ron... Take it out and dry it out really good, maybe theres a hole you could patch up with some clear tape or soemthing (i have clear tape on one of ym foglights, youd never know it was there)...

You could get a new one from Joe, theyre probably not bad.....

Tim... There is this ball socket deal and you basically gotta pull it out, and it pops out after the screw is removed......

Look for fissures in the housing and fill them with epoxy once you have cleaned and dried the reflectors very carefully.
