2010 CHEVROLET CORVETTE turn signal bulb

Turn and Lane-Change Signals
(Auto Signal)
An arrow on the
instrument panel cluster
flashes in the direction of
the turn or lane change.
Move the the lever all the way up or down to signal
a turn.
Raise or lower the lever until the arrow starts to flash to
signal a lane change. Release the lever and the turn
signal automatically flashes three times. If more flashes
are desired, continue to hold the lever.
The lever returns to its starting position when it is
released.
If after signaling a turn or lane change the arrows flash
rapidly or do not come on, a signal bulb may be
burned out.
Have the bulbs replaced. If the bulb is not burned out,
check the fuse. See Fuses and Circuit Breakers
on
page 6‑101.
Turn Signal on Chime
A chime sounds if the turn signal has been on for more
than three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km) of driving.
If you need to leave the turn signal on for more than
three‐quarters of a mile (1.2 km), turn off the signal and
then turn it back on.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam Changer
To change the headlamps from low beam to high, push
the turn signal lever all the way forward. To change from
high to low beam, pull the lever rearward.
While the high beams
are on, this light on the
instrument panel cluster
will also be lit.
Flash-to-Pass
To use the flash-to-pass feature, briefly pull the turn
signal lever toward you. The high-beam indicator
flashes to indicate to the other driver that you intend to
pass. If the low-beam headlamps are off and the fog
lamps are on, the fog lamps flash.

Bulb Replacement
For the proper type of replacement bulbs, see
Replacement Bulbs on page 6‑58.
For any bulb changing procedure not listed in this
section, contact your dealer/retailer.
High Intensity Discharge (HID)
Lighting
{WARNING:
The low beam high intensity discharge lighting
system operates at a very high voltage. If you try
to service any of the system components, you
could be seriously injured. Have your dealer/
retailer or a qualified technician service them.
The vehicle may have HID headlamps. After an HID
headlamp bulb has been replaced, you may notice
that the beam is a slightly different shade than it was
originally. This is normal.
Halogen Bulbs
{WARNING:
Halogen bulbs have pressurized gas inside and
can burst if you drop or scratch the bulb. You or
others could be injured. Be sure to read and
follow the instructions on the bulb package.
