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.

Headlamp Replacement

When servicing a halogen lamp, don't touch the lamp with bare fingers.

Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that will shorten

the life of the lamp.
1. Turn the back of the headlight

harness counter-clockwise and

pull the harness assembly away

from the headlight assembly.

CAUTION! Hot components can cause

burns to skin. Allow lamps to cool before

servicing.

2. Remove the headlamp and install

the new headlamp.

3. Reinstall the harness assembly

into the headlight assembly.

4. Turn the headlight harness clockwise to secure the headlamp.

Taillight/Brakelight Lamp Replacement

1. From the rear of the brake-

light, remove the two

screws holding the lens

cover in place. Remove the

lens cover.

2. Remove the lamp and

replace it with a new lamp.

3. Test the light for proper

operation.

4. Reinstall the lens cover.
