The procedure is very involved.It requires the removal of the front bumper fascia fasteners from the center and side of the headlamp to be removed.

  1. Remove the front bumper fascia fasteners from the center and side of the headlamp to be removed, full removal of the fascia is not necessary. Refer to Front Bumper Fascia Replacement.
  2. Gently pull the fascia forward to allow clearance to remove the headlamp assembly.
  3. You will also need to remove some of the fasteners at the front of the inner wheel well.
  4. The Front Bumper Fascia is the plastic cover over your front bumper.
  5. You may also have to remove the plastic cover that is located under the front of the hood over the radiator.It extends to both sides.

How do i replace right front turn signal bulb on 2008 cadillac dts
My automotive database says you have to remove headlamp assembly to replace bulb. To remove headlamp assembly, you need to remove front bumper fascia.
Why in the world should you have to remove front of vehicle just to change a bulb, I don't know? My database is the only info I have to go by. I doubt I can walk you through it, step by step, I can't see anything from here.

Why won't the front turn signal work? I just replaced the entire headlamp assembly on 2005 Chevy Malibu.
is turn signal plugged in?
if this is a new bulb try the old one to make sure bulb is not at fault
then need to check the voltage at the connector.
A test light is easiest way from a good ground to each terminal.
if flashing the ground connection could be corroded.
if nothing at connector try the connection at the turn signal switch.

Change headlamp bulb 2000 chevy malibu
The headlight is a Halogen that comes out the back.
Find the wire harness and follow it to the back of the light to a rubber cover. Pull the rubber cover off the back and find a holder. Unscrew or releade the wire "spring" then pull out the old bulb.
BR SURE NOT to touch the glass part of the new bulb.....
