That was not a useable answer [looks to be easy] Just how is that answer going to solve the problem of removing 2 screws from license plate fixture to change bulb.
This appears to be aimed at me. I have answered this 3 times in 2 days to you and someone posting as Anonymous. I thought you missed them.Making a new post as a follow-up doesn't work on Fixya because are threaded to poster. This should have been under one of my answers by clicking 'Comment'.If the screw heads are chewed up, use a screw extractor. It is just 2 Philips head screws, unless a previous owner has changed them? If access is a problem I have a neat Cranked Screwdriver, the handle is right angled to the bit point. It was easy, because the videos showed it to be easy.Worst case scenario, smash it off, use locking grips on the remains of the screws and replace the whole unit.You could also wire in a couple of LED units left and right of the old one...

Does the spark plugs wires have numbers or how do I know what cable goes where
you will replace wires one at a time. pick the longest cable on engine and remove it and replace with the longest cable in replacement cables. repeat. If you removed all the cables you are in trouble.
google firing order of you car make model engine size and select images. If this does not work time to squeak and pay repair shop. never ever remove more than one plug wire and or spark plug.
let me know your car and engine.

How do I reset the maintenance reminder?
That requires the specific directions to you vehicle model. You would need to search online for such including in the search your make and model. --That is, if the instructions are not already in your owner's manual. Some makes and models have such instructions available in YouTube videos.

ECM warning 56 iveco stalis
When the ECM warning light comes on on your Iveco vehicle, the engine usually slows down strongly to a very low speed: in most cases this is due to a problem with the urea pump - adblue, failing to circulate this additive.Click here to know more scegliauto

How do I tell if heater core is out on 04madza6
Using a thick cloth or gloves, touch the heater hose IN and heater hose OUT by hand to feel the temperature. if there is an obvious difference in temperature between both hoses, the heater core may be clogged. NOTE: when doing this inspection, turn the HVAC blower fan OFF if you find that the temperature in your car is constantly fluctuating, it could be a sign of a bad heater core. The temperature should be consistent when you are driving. if it starts to go up and down, it could be because the coolant leaks. when the engine overheats, it can cause the car to stall. And you can start to hear a gurgling noise coming from the heater core this usually means that there is air trapped in the coolant tha circulates through the core. this can happen for a number of reasons, including a blown head gasket or a leak developing in the heater control valve. and you can fix a heater core without replacing it by K_Seal, K_Seal will fix most leaks in the heater core. when using K_seal or K_Seal HD for this type of repair make sure that the heater is switched to maximum so that it flows through the pipes and reaches the leak, permanently sealing it.

How to program a 1998 mercedes c280 key fob. the key wont turn in the ignition
You insert the key in the ignition of your Mercedes-Benz, but nothing happens. You can't turn the key. You can't start the car. The main reason this happens is a dead battery, but it can also be several other problems described below. As you insert the Smart Key remote into the Electronic Ignition Switch(EIS) control module (N73), power is supplied to the key by the induction coil ring located in the EIS. Data is then exchanged with the infrared transmitter to validate the Drive Authorization. This article discusses why the key won't turn in the ignition and a possible solution.
2011 Cadillac SRX will not crank and start. No fault codes on ECU.
Steve Pack has a good point, but I will take a stab at the answer anyway.
Did you disconnect the battery when you were playing with all the lights? If so, you have to reset the security system and engine immobilizer.
However swapping bulbs to LED seldom works and this is why. Your lights are monitored by the Body Control Module. You know that little light on the dash that tells you that you have a light out, well that comes from the BCM rather than the ECM. Also LED bulbs have an electronic control circuit in them and that sends back signals to the BCM that it doesn't understand. Your high end vehicle is fully computerized and you can't play with electrics, especially adding anything that is connected to ECM or BCM. Your vehicle has a complicated 5 volt computer bus network in it.
Put the bulbs back, see if that fixes it.
