I checked the tech manual for bulb replacement and didn't find anything. Bulb replacement is a maintenance activity, to me anyway.
The owners manual contains info on how to operate the car, not do maintenance activities.

You’re welcome. A “ like” is a good way to thank someone.
Always good to read the manual as you may find all sorts of interesting tidbits of info in there. I keep an e-copy on my phone for easy access.
My Toyota and Subaru drivers manuals both include bulb replacement so not just a Jaguar thing.

Driving back home from the shop (about 20 miles) the ALS alarm has NOT returned.

Scott Fricks didn't charge me for this service. I will go back to him for additional work.

I haven't replaced the bulb yet because I haven't figured out how to get to it. See my post (#11) above.

Well, I hope you dropped off a box of beer.
