How to Replace a Fog Light Bulb on a 2005 Jeep Liberty
The 2005 Jeep Liberty comes with fog lights on the front bumper of the vehicle, below the headlights. Fog lights on the Jeep Liberty provide additional lighting in dark driving conditions or when the weather is, well, foggy. Over time, fog light bulbs will burn out and require replacement. You can change a fog light bulb without having to take your vehicle to a service center.

Remove the three screws from the back of the fog light assembly and pull the front bezel and fog light lens away from the assembly--far enough to access the wire and bulb within the assembly. Since the fog lights are external, you can access the back of each assembly without having to open the hood or get under the front bumper.

Pull the electrical connector off the back of the bulb. You will notice a bulb retainer clip that secures the bulb inside the assembly.

Tips & Warnings
Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with your hands. Oils on your skin will collect on the glass and raise the temperature of the bulb, which can shorten its life.
