Yea, NO! Bottom of access cover is held by a butterfly rivet, which you'll have to replace if you rip it off. The upper joke of a fastener may be impossible to turn but turn you must counter clockwise 1/4 to release. I pried into pieces but was able to reassemble. Luckily I had a butterfly rivet as well.

I cannot tell you how grateful I am that you created this video. I have the same exact symptoms in my 06 element. Your suggestion seem like the logical first step in problem solving. I had corroded terminals, cleaned them right up and the car turned over immediately. Thanks again

Mine is doing that now. It was doing this inconsistently since the hot weather masks battery problems. (At least i hope) now its getting cooler and it doesn't crank, and then after a bunch of attempts, it fired up but it felt wonky.

An error I noticed is he states this is how you do it on a 2013, 2014, and 2015. His 2015 is a different body style than 2013 and 2014 and these instructions may or may not fit those year models. I just did my 2016 which is the same as his 2015. Do not just rip off the access panel the way he does. There is a flat, wide plastic screw at the top that you just turn a quarter either way using a coin or a wide flat blade stubby screwdriver and it unlatches. Mine was difficult to turn but I eventually got it. Do not pull out the rivit holding the bottom of the panel. It's not meant to come apart. Just rotate the panel down or bend it back. Also when unplugging the connector from the bulb be careful not to break the clip that secures the connector to the bulb. Stick a small flat blade screw driver under the clip and twist it to raise the clip out of the way so the connector can be pulled out of the bulb. It may take some effort to wiggle and pull it out.

Thank you! The whole reason I looked at this video was because I couldn't get that plastic screw to turn on the panel and then the guy in the video says "Just pop the panel open" and I thought there's no way that could be right haha.

I wouldn't pop the whole cover off like this video says. Take off the top screw only with a washer or a nickel then leave the bottom screw on since it's a rivet and a pain to put back on. Slide the cover around to get out of your way. Trust me it'll be easier when you put everything back on. All other instructions were fine. Thank you.

Be careful with the part about popping the peace off to access lightbulb. You're suppose to unscrew the top piece and swing it down. If you do it this way, you won't be able to pop it back in.

READ THE COMMENTS BEFORE CHANGING YOUR BULB!!! There is a major glaring error right at the beginning of this video!
@ericanderson39674 жыл бұрын
Matt's video and directions have a flaw in them. He says, "Just pop the panel off." Don't follow his example. What Matt popped off at the bottom of the panel is a rivet. You can see in his video he tries to push it back in. Good luck with that. The top of the panel has a plastic slotted screw looking thing. Turn that 90 degrees, and the top of the panel will open, and you can rotate it out of the way, pivoting on the rivet. I followed Matt's directions. Now I need to get a new rivet from Chrysler to get it put back together correctly.
@v1rot814 жыл бұрын
I wish I’d read your comment before I popped off my panel too. You’re right, the slotted screw at the top is how you remove the panel, then just pivot it around the rivet. The rest of the video is spot on and it really is that easy. One more tip is to raise the hood to get more light down there.
