How do I remove the dome light lens?
Hi all,
I brought my new 2010 Element home on Saturday. My boyfriend and I went out to dinner to celebrate, and when we got back in the E to drive home, the dome light didn't turn on. I tried switching between the "door" and "on" setting and neither worked. The light just doesn't come on at all.
The tailgate light DOES work like it's supposed to, and the map lights work fine too. I checked the fuses and all are in good shape and installed correctly.
I'd like to pop the lens off the dome light and make sure the bulb is seated/not broken, but I don't see a good/easy way to do it, and the owner's manual doesn't say how to change it.
I'm not sure I want to hack it open with a screwdriver when the E is just two days old. Is there an easy/gentle way to get the lens off?
Is this covered under warranty? I live two miles from a Honda dealership, but I don't like/trust them. I guess I'd take it there as a last resort. The dealership I bought it from is about 100 miles away and not worth the trip for a little light.
