replace HFL

Is it difficult to replace the HFL module in a 05 TL? Is it a matter of getting to HFL and unplugging old part and plugging in new HFL?

Thanks

The HFL is installed in the interior colored housing in the overhead console. Acura sells the HFL already installed in the the housing. The housing is held in place by 4 10-mm bolts. To remove the housing you pull out the moonroof switch/connector (clipped in place) then remove the Map light assembly/connector (also clipped in place). After removing the map light assembly you see the 4 bolts. Remove the bolts and drop the housing. The black box mounted inside is the HFL. Disconnect the 20-pin connector-and reassemble.

If you bought a used/salvaged part-you may not get the right color housing. No problem-as the HFL box is held in place by 3-torx screws and (at least on mine-a wad of velcro). Just remove the old and install the new.

TSB 05-020 and TSB 08-057 have illustrated instruction. Just checked the 3G garage-and the links are not working?
