Blinker Bulb Replacement?

[Trialsin26]

It seems like it should be very easy but it’s giving me a lot of trouble. I’m trying to replace the blinker/side marker bulb on my 2001 PF. I opened the hood and unscrewed the screw holding the blinker to the PF. I then pulled it in every direction for 30 min and could not get it loose. I didn’t want to break something so I stopped. Is there some kind of trick to getting the blinker loose from the car so I can replace the bulb? Thanks :confused:

nick, thanks for the help. I replaced both bulbs today but unfortunately I must have yanked to hard because I broke one of the plastic snap/plugs. It still pops in a hold tight but I think I’ll see if Nissan has a replacement part next time I go in. sssh

Yeah the corner lights are a pain in the butt to get out. I broke one of those metal plug/snap things too on my stock corner light when I was replacing them with the clear sidemarkers I got off ebay. I wouldn't be surprised if the dealer will want like 100 bucks for just one side on those corner lenses....

01PATHY, luck for me and it was just the grommet. I went to Nissan and it was just a $1.35 for the part.
