Maintenance
Lamp Assembly Replacement
1. Turn off power to the power supply and allow the lamp assembly to cool for 10 minutes.
2. Remove the lens by unscrewing the four mounting screws. (When equipped with a bezel it is not neces-
sary to remove the bezel/reflector from the vehicle)
3. Carefully grab the base of the lamp assembly and twist counterclockwise 1/8 turn. Pull straight out. (When
equipped with a bezel or the reflector is mounted separately carefully pull the connected AMP Mate-N-
Lock connectors through the socket hole. If the Mate-N-Lock connectors either disconnect or will not pull
through the socket hole, unscrew the remaining four screws and remove the bezel/reflector from the ve-
hicle.)
4. Disconnect the lamp assembly from the cable.
5. Insert the replacement lamp assembly into the reflector. Twist clockwise 1/8 turn until you feel the locking
features of the socket engage.
6. Test the lamp by connecting the lamp assembly to the cable. Switch the power supply on. After verifying
the tube is good, turn off the power supply.
7. Push the assembled AMP Mate-N-Lock connectors through the cut out in the vehicle for the reflector.
8. Verify the "TOP" reflector engraving is on the top of the reflector. Verify “TOP” lens engraving is on the top
of the lens. Mount the reflector and lens by installing the four screws.
Lens Cleaning
1. Remove the lens by unscrewing the four mounting screws. (When equipped with a bezel it is not neces-
sary to remove the bezel/reflector from the vehicle).
High voltages and /or temperatures are present inside the unit. Disconnect from power and
wait 10 minutes prior to servicing or troubleshooting. Use hand and eye protection when
changing halogen lamps or flashtubes as they are pressurized and accidental breakage can
result in flying glass. Lamps are extremely hot! Allow to cool completely before attempting to
remove. Gloves and eye protection should be worn handling halogen lamps or flashtubes as
they are pressurized and accidental breakage can result in flying glass.
WARNING!
!
2. Using plain water and a soft cloth, or Code 3 lens polish and a very soft paper towel or facial tissue clean
both surfaces of the lens.
3. Because plastic scratches easily, cleaning is recommended only when necessary (about every six months).
4. Do not subject the lenses to car washes that use brushes, as these will scratch the lenses.
If attempting to clean the reflector, use only a mild glass cleaner and a very soft cloth. Do not
attempt to use any wax type products as these will burn onto the reflector and impair
effectiveness.
