The Yugo GV front and rear turn signal bulbs both utilize a 1157 size. The replacement chart covers 1986 to 1992 production years with corresponding bulb specifications.
The year-by-year compatibility chart below provides a quick reference to verify the correct bulb size for your vehicle.
The Yugo GV uses the 1157 bulb for both its front and rear turn signals across all model years from 1986-1992.
The 1157 is a dual-filament bulb, meaning it contains two separate filaments within a single glass envelope, allowing it to serve two distinct lighting functions at different wattages.
It operates on a 12-volt electrical system and draws 21 watts on its high-intensity filament and 5 watts on its low-intensity filament.
The 1157 uses a BAY15d bayonet base, which is an offset dual-contact base. The offset pin placement prevents incorrect insertion, as the two pins are positioned at different heights on the base.
The 1157 is an ANSI-standardized bulb, meaning its physical and electrical specifications conform to a defined industry standard recognized in both the United States and Canada.
Because the same 1157 bulb is specified for both the front and rear turn signal positions on the Yugo GV, a single bulb type services all four turn signal sockets on the vehicle.
The dual-filament design of the 1157 makes it a common choice for automotive applications where one socket must handle both a running light function and a brighter turn signal or stop function.
