Buick Enclave: Halogen Bulbs. High Intensity Discharge (HID) Lighting. Taillamps, Turn Signal, Sidemarker, and Stoplamps

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.

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 or a qualified technician service them.

After an HID headlamp bulb has been replaced, the beam might be a slightly different shade than it was originally. This is normal.
