Checking lighting & peripheral systems
|
A vehicle may have warning lights that will activate only if that circuit is in use. You may need to turn that circuit on to see the warning light.
|
Checking & changing an exterior light bulb
|
Make sure that the fuses are in good condition before attempting to change a bulb in a circuit that has more than one bulb, such as the turn signal circuit.
|
Checking & changing a headlight bulb
|
Always make sure that you replace a bulb with one of exactly the same type. Otherwise, change both lights at once, so they always show the same intensity in lumens.
|
| Aiming headlights |
Some manufacturers may suggest that the headlights be aimed on high beam, others on low or dipped beam, depending on the number of lights and type of application. |
