2002-2009 Trailblazer Tail Light Bulb Replacement (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009)

Introduction

This is a step-by-step guide on how to replace a tail light bulb in a 2002-2009 Chevrolet Trailblazer. In this guide, I will be replacing the stoplight. With time, you will see that lights on your tail light need to be replaced. One special requirement I suggest is to wear gloves when handling the new bulb because you don’t want the oil from your skin to get on the bulb and already decrease its quality.

Before beginning, be sure to power off the ignition, place your car in park, and engage the parking brake.
