The daytime running lights are prone to burning out. Our technicians tell us that the light sockets may show signs of heat damage but usually are OK. Always be sure to use the correct replacement bulb for the best life expectancy. The new bulb recommendation for 2002-2003 models is #4114K (trade number).

My left side keeps burning out. The problem is not fixed simply by putting the correct bulb in the socket. There has to be more to it than that. DUH!

DRL have been replaced but still not working. The sockets have the signs of heat as mentioned before, would they be burned out?

After replacing bulbs twice, I went to amber lights. These have not burnt out yet. That was 7 years and 140,000 miles ago.

Have had to replace both running lights 2 or 3 times now. One was working, but when it went out, the dome, and backup lights also stopped working.
