Features And Function
The assembly typically accommodates stop (brake), tail (parking), indicator (turn) and reversing light functions depending on the bulb configuration.

Replacement Procedure
- Park the vehicle on a flat surface and switch off all electrical consumers.
- Disconnect the negative battery terminal as a safety precaution before starting work.
- Open the tailgate and remove the interior trim panel to access the lamp fasteners.
- Unscrew the retaining bolts and carefully pull the lamp assembly outwards.
- Disconnect the electrical connector and remove the old lamp.
- If required, fit the bulb holder (part no. 1606959180) and install the correct bulbs.
- Connect the wiring harness to the new lamp, position it, and fasten the retaining screws to the manufacturer’s torque recommendation.
- Reinstall the trim panel, reconnect the battery, and test all lamp functions (tail, brake, indicator, reverse).
Installation Recommendations
- Use the correct replacement bulbs and the compatible bulb holder to avoid poor contact or overheating.
- Inspect the wiring connector for corrosion or damaged pins; clean or repair connectors before installation to prevent intermittent faults.
- Ensure the sealing surface is clean and free of debris to maintain waterproofing and prevent moisture ingress.
- Do not overtighten fasteners; use recommended torque values where available to avoid cracking the housing.
- After installation, verify all lighting functions and, if applicable, check that adaptive or camera-based systems operate correctly.
Why The Part Most Commonly Fails
- Water Ingress: Damaged seals or cracked lenses allow moisture to enter, causing corrosion and electrical faults.
- Impact Damage: Rear-end impacts or minor collisions frequently crack or break the lamp housing.
- Connector Corrosion: Moisture and road salts can corrode socket contacts, leading to intermittent or permanent failure of light functions.
- Bulb Holder Wear: The bulb holder or its contacts can deteriorate over time; note this unit is supplied without the holder.
- Ageing And UV Exposure: Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cloud lenses and reduce light output.
