Nissan Stanza front and rear turn signal bulbs utilize a 1156 bulb size across both positions. The replacement chart covers vehicle production spanning 1982 to 1992.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Nissan Stanza uses the 1156 bulb for both its front and rear turn signals across all listed model years from 1982-1985 and 1988-1992.
The 1156 is a single-filament bulb, meaning it is dedicated to one lighting function rather than serving dual purposes such as combined stop and tail operation.
The 1156 operates at 12 volts and 21 watts, which is consistent with standard automotive electrical systems and typical turn signal brightness requirements.
The 1156 uses a BA15s bayonet base, a single-contact fitting where the bulb is inserted and rotated to lock into place, as opposed to a screw or wedge base design.
The 1156 conforms to ANSI standards and is specified for use in the United States and Canada, indicating it meets regulated performance and safety criteria for those markets.
Because the front and rear turn signal positions on the Nissan Stanza share the same 1156 bulb type, a single bulb part number covers both locations on the vehicle.
The BA15s base designation indicates a single-contact bayonet fitting with a 15mm base width, which is not interchangeable with the BA15d double-contact variant despite their similar physical appearance.
