MAINTENANCE

Lights

Poor lighting can result in reduced visibility when driving. Headlight and taillight lenses become dirty during normal operation. Clean lights frequently and replace burned out lamps promptly. Always make sure lights are adjusted properly for best visibility.

Headlight Lamp Replacement

When servicing a halogen lamp, avoid touching the lamp with bare fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten the life of the lamp. If fingers do touch a lamp, clean it with denatured alcohol.

1. Remove the five (5)

headlight pod screws.

2. Lift the pod cover and disconnect the speedometer harnesses from the speedometer.

CAUTION! Hot components can cause burns to skin. Allow lamps to cool before servicing.

3. Unplug the headlamp from the wiring harness. Be sure to pull on the connector, not on the wiring.

4.Turn the lamp counter-clockwise to remove it.

5.Install the new lamp. Make sure the tab on the lamp locates properly in the housing.

6.Reassemble the pod.
