To access the third brake light located at the centre of the heated rear window, remove it along with its cover: simply press the two clips on the sides to release it. Once removed, disconnect the power connector and extract the entire bulb holder by disengaging the two side tabs.

Replace the blown bulb with a compatible one (T5 fitting) and reconnect it to check its proper functioning.

It is advisable to replace all the bulbs to avoid noticeable differences in brightness compared to the new one.
