How do you change a burned out license plate light on a 2002 chevy trailblazer

  • pferenc Apr 18, 2009

    For some reason I can't get the bulb to come out. What do you mean by wedge base?

The license plate lights are in the ledge above the license plate. 2 screws keep the lens cover in place. Remove the screws, and the cover comes off. Just pull the lamp out (wedge base) and replace.

    Should come right out; just wiggle it. By wedge base, I mean the bulb has the connections as wire loops that are embeded in the glass, and is essentially baseless.

The left rear tail light don't work the license plate light don't work. The left rear turn signal,back up,and brake lights all work ,all the lights on the right side rear work. 06 trailblazer chevy.

My guess is one of those lamps is burned out, therefore not sending current to the next. My second guess is that the license plate light is last in line, so I would start with the left tail light

License plate light

The licence plate doesn't have a fuse, it comes on when you put your lights on, if you have your park lights on and the plate light isn't working then generally it's just a bulb, see what you can find, cheers good luck

Replacing license plate lights on Chevy Trailblazer

I just had the same problem. I took the cover off, saw the white bulb base, twisted it to take it out, but it popped back inside the door. I got it out, but it wouldn't pull through, so I twisted it back in place and went to Autozone to get new bulb. Once I saw the new bulb, it was obvious, just the bulb itself pulls out. There's so little room to work, I couldn't get it with just my fingers - - maybe rubber gloves would have worked, but I used pliers, lightly, wiggled it a little and it popped right out. I had a similar issue once with the taillight bulb and had to break the bulb and then grip the remaining filament wires with pliers to get it out, so that was my backup plan, just in case.

Hope this helps others.
