4. Installation Instructions
Before beginning installation, ensure your vehicle's ignition is off and the battery is disconnected to prevent electrical shorts or injury.
- Locate the Bulb Socket: Identify the specific light assembly (e.g., tail light, turn signal) where the 1157 bulb needs to be replaced. Consult your vehicle's service manual for exact locations and access procedures.
- Remove the Old Bulb: Carefully twist or pull the bulb socket from the light assembly. Once the socket is accessible, press down and twist the old 1157 incandescent bulb counter-clockwise to remove it.
- Inspect the Socket: Check the bulb socket for any corrosion or damage. Clean if necessary.
- Insert the LED Bulb: Align the offset pins of the United Pacific 36934 LED bulb with the slots in the socket. Gently push the bulb into the socket and twist clockwise until it locks into place. Ensure the double contacts on the bulb base make proper contact with the socket terminals.
- Test the Bulb: Before reassembling the light assembly, reconnect the vehicle's battery and test the light function (e.g., turn on parking lights, apply brakes, activate turn signals) to ensure the LED bulb illuminates correctly.
- Reassemble: Once confirmed operational, reinsert the bulb socket into the light assembly and secure it.

Important Note on Fitment: Some older vehicle sockets or specific deep sockets may have limited clearance. Ensure the bulb seats fully and securely into the socket. If the bulb does not seat correctly, it may not make proper electrical contact or could be incompatible with the specific socket design.
5. Operation
Once correctly installed, the United Pacific 36934 LED bulb operates automatically with your vehicle's existing lighting system. It will illuminate when the corresponding light function (e.g., parking lights, brake lights, turn signals) is activated.
- Dual Functionality: As an 1157 type bulb, it supports dual brightness levels for applications like tail lights (dimmer) and brake lights/turn signals (brighter).
6. Maintenance
LED bulbs are generally maintenance-free due to their long lifespan and durable construction. No regular maintenance is required for the bulb itself.
