Bulb Replacement
The signal failure of an external light
(turn signal, low beam and high beam,
license plate light, reverse light, brake
light and rear fog light) is
communicated to the instrument
cluster that displays on the TFT screen
the
oramber warning light
and a text message indicating which
light is faulty.
Front Headlights
The light bulbs of the headlight
clusters are arranged as follows:
1 Bi-Xenon low-beam/high-beam

2 Position light and DRL (*) LED.
3 Turn signal light bulb.

market DRL are always enabled.
CAUTION!
Due to the complexity of the
operation, for the replacement of the

recommend that you contact an

WARNING!
The headlamps are a type of high

can remain in the circuit even with the

switch off. Because of this, you should
not attempt to replace a headlamp
bulb yourself, but take the vehicle to
an Authorized Maserati Dealer for
service.

The taillight bulbs are arranged as
follows:
1 Position light guide LED.
2 Stop light LED.
3 Turn signal LED.
4 Reverse light bulb.

Tail-Light Clusters Bulbs
Replacement
Most of the lamps of the taillight are
LED powered and cannot be replaced
individually. The only exceptions are
the reverse and the rear fog light
bulbs for which you find below the
replacement procedure.
Contact an Authorized Maserati
Dealer to locate the correct parts and
replace them.
