Changing the bulb in a pot light lighting fixture can be very easy. First you need to take off the whole "can" or cylinder that surrounds the light by pulling downwards gently. Next you should find the cord that attaches to the light and detach it. Then you attach the new bulb and put the can and cylinder back on. Turn the switch back on and you're done.

One way to loosen a light bulb that is stuck in the fixture is to break the bulb. You can then use half of a potato to unscrew the bulb from the fixture.

How do you change a license plate bulb in a 2001 Chevy impala and what kind of bulb does it need?

AnswerThere are two screws for each bulb fixture. Get down on the ground and you'll see them at the tag light. They are 7mm screws. Unscrew them til loose. You don't have to take them off all the way. After unscrewing them, slide lighting fixture away from bumper, and twist the bulb to the left, and pull it out. The license plate light bulb size is 194. You will probably have to take off the license plate in order to reach the bulb fixtures.

Can a bad lighting fixture cause a light bulb to fail?

If you install a bulb and it immediately fails with a flash then the fixture or more likely the supply voltage is a problem. This is a rare failure mode for the standard screw-in incandescent bulb. Essentially the only way it can happen is if a voltage in access of the rated voltage is applied to the bulb. It is more likely that the fixture shorts out and takes the bulb with it during the current surge. This can happen more easily than a constant over voltage condition, but after that the fixture is usually toast. If there is a ballast built in to the fixture, it can fail in a way that can eat light bulbs. One other failure mode that can reduce life of bulb is an enclosed fixture that overheats and causes the bulb to have a reduced life span.


How do you change the tag light on a 1998 Crown Victoria?

Very easy to do. Remove the two cap screws from the lens fixture (uses a 6mm socket, I believe). Very carefully use a flat tip screwdriver to gently pry the fixture from the underneath side of the trunk lid, and it should hang down with the light fixture attached to it. The fixture is made of a rubber-like plastic, so gently working it side to side will free it from the lens fixture. Remove the bulb from the light fixture by pulling it straight out (looks like an ancient camera bulb). You could use a 161 or 168 light bulb, but I used a 194 bulb (costs a little over $2.00 at O'Reillys) to reinstall into the light fixture. Going in reverse method, place the light fixture into lens fixture, and reassemble the lens fixture back to the trunk lid. Piece of cake!
