Burnt bulb? Replacing it is simple; discover how to do it in just a few moments. Open the boot lid, and inside, you will see a small cover on either side; simply pull it towards you to remove it. At this point, you can see the connector supplying power to the bulb; disconnect it as clearly shown in the video, and rotate the bulb holder counterclockwise until you feel a click.

Pull it down gently and press the new bulb into its holder, slightly turning the bulb counterclockwise to remove it. Once the new bulb is inserted, refit the bulb holder into its housing, this time turning it clockwise, close the cover, and you're done.
