To replace the amber light bulb you will need to take off the lense. You will need a Phillips head screwdriver and a 11mm wrench or slim socket (there is not much room), and take out the clear bulb to make it easier, just a quarter turn of the holder. First take off the plastic cowl cover (it is only held on by 6 plastic push fasteners) and set it aside. Next loosen the wire for the marker light, it is held next to the headlight in a crescent shaped holder and all you have to do is pop it out and push it forward if you do not do this there will not be enough room to get the bulb out. Now remove the screw on the outside at the rear of the lense. Next take off the inside nut of the lense (it is the one on the SIDE of the car at the corner). Carefully pull the lense off taking care to not damage the wire, if you need more slack feed moor wire through the holder. Remove the marker light holder by twisting it a quarter turn, the bulb will pull out and after you replace it you can put both the marker light and spot light holders back into the lense. Place the lense back into position and hold it there while you gently pull the wire back and lock it in the holder. Put the nut back and tighten it. Replace the screw. Replace the cowl cover and 6 push fasteners.

How do you change a side marker light on a Ford Fusion se?

This is very easy to change, you don't need any mechanical experience. 1. You have to open up the access panel in the front wheelwell, turn the wheel all the way and unscrew the one screw holding it in. 2. Then use needlenose pliers to pinch the plastic clamps together holding the sidemarker in place, there is only one clamp holding each side marker. You can peek in from above with an open hood to grasp the clamps. 3. Pull the side marker out. 4. Twist the light and wiring out of the side marker. 5. Put the light in the new side marker, push the marker into position, close the access panel. Then do the other side.
