The Renault Alliance uses 194 bulb size for both front and rear side marker applications. The replacement chart covers 1983 to 1987 vehicle production years with corresponding bulb size specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Renault Alliance uses the 194 bulb for both front and rear side markers across the 1983-1987 model years.
The 194 is a miniature wedge-type bulb, classified under the T10 form factor, which refers to a tubular glass envelope roughly 10mm wide with a wedge base that requires no separate socket retainer.
The 194 bulb operates at 12 volts with a power draw of 3.78 watts, placing it in the low-wattage range typical of parking and marker lighting applications.
The 194 carries ANSI standardization recognized in both the United States and Canada, meaning the designation corresponds to a consistent set of electrical and physical characteristics across manufacturers.
Because the same bulb size applies to both the front and rear side marker positions on the Renault Alliance, a single bulb type services all four side marker locations on the vehicle.
The wedge base of the 194 bulb is retained by friction within the socket rather than by a bayonet or screw mechanism, which is a defining characteristic of the T10 wedge format.
The 194 and closely related wedge bulbs such as the 168 and 192 share the same T10 physical format but differ in wattage, so substitution with visually similar wedge bulbs carries a risk of electrical mismatch if wattage ratings are not verified.
