Introduction

If your 2013 Hyundai Accent brake light is no longer working, use this guide to replace the light.

The brake light alerts other drivers of whether you are slowing down or stopping the vehicle. It is important to ensure that you have a working brake light because it is a ticketable offense and for safety reasons.

Before using this guide, make sure to turn the car off and to purchase a replacement bulb (Model: Sylvania 2357LL).

    • View the side flap for whichever side has the dead bulb. (This is the left side view.)

    • Pull the flap up and locate the brake light.

    • The flap may need some extra force to open because the cutouts are typically not cut all the way through.
