Here’s how to replace the bulbs inside the lights located on the tailgate of the Ford S-Max. Open the tailgate and position yourself in front of the light where the bulbs need replacing; on the inner cover, you will find a cap, which when removed will expose the electrical connector that you will need to disconnect and two plastic screws to unscrew.

Also, unscrew the screw located on the side, allowing you to remove the light; unscrew the two screws that secure the plate where the bulbs are housed.

Replace the burnt bulb with a new one and reassemble everything in reverse order of the previous steps.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
