Model: Ford Fusion MK 1 - Years 2002-2012
Part: Tail light

To remove the rear light and replace the reversing bulb of the Ford Fusion, start by opening the boot. Unscrew the two screws with a Torx key and also unscrew the rear nut. Pry at the outer part of the light and at the top to detach it from the clips, then disconnect the connector and place the light on a flat surface. Release the tabs holding the bulb plate to the light and separate them, taking care with the gasket. Remove the reversing bulb by pressing and turning it a quarter turn clockwise. Take the new bulb, insert it into its socket, press and turn it a quarter turn counterclockwise, and reassemble everything by reversing the disassembly procedure.
