2007 Liberty KJ Factory Service Manual 8 - ELECTRICAL

INSTALLATION

BULB - FRONT

CAUTION: Always use the correct bulb size and type for replacement. An incorrect bulb size or type may overheat and cause damage to the lamp, the socket or the lamp wiring.

NOTE: Two different front dome lamps are available, one for vehicles without a sunroof and a second for vehicles with a sunroof. The only differences between these lamps are that the one for sunroof applications has a mount for a power sunroof switch within the lamp housing, an opening in the center of the lamp lens through which the sunroof switch rocker protrudes, and an opening on the back of the lamp housing through which the sunroof switch connector receptacle protrudes. The lamp and bulb service procedures are the same for either lamp.




1. With the dome lamp lens (1) in the open position, align the ends of the bulb (3) with the two bulb holders within the front dome lamp housing (2).
2. Carefully press the bulb firmly and evenly into the bulb holders until it snaps into place.
3. Reinstall the lamp into the headliner.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - INTERIOR/DOME LAMP - INSTALLATION/FRONT DOME LAMP).
4. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
