License plate light bulb


Recommended Posts

I have a 2014 lincoln mkz and the license plate light is off so my question is so do I replace the part where the light bulb goes into or just the light bulb I try opening it up but can't seem to open it and i don't want to break it

Neither.  As in the rest of your '14, the license plate lights are not bulbs, per se.  They're LEDs.  It's not quite as simple as just replacing a bulb.  LEDs should last the life of the car but they do occasionally fail.  Per the service manual:

This is why the owner's manual instructs you to see a dealer for this lamp outage.
