Official summary

Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 97 number 10-02 dated April 23, 2010. A defective light bulb warning appears in the instrument cluster, but the side marker lights are functioning normally and DTCs are stored in the vehicle electrical system control module after the vehicle electrical system control module, J519, is replaced. Due to a change in the software, an additional adaptation must be performed when the vehicle electrical system control module is replaced.

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
