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.
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.
Headlight Lamp Replacement
1. Open the hood.
CAUTION! Hot components
can cause burns to skin. Allow
lamps to cool before servicing.
2. Unplug the headlamp
from the wiring harness.
Be sure to pull on the
connector, not on the
wiring.
3. Turn the lamp counter-
clockwise to remove it.
4. Install the new lamp.
Tip: Make sure the tab on the lamp locates properly in the housing.
5. Reinstall the harness assembly into the headlight assembly.
Brake Lights
When the brake pedal is depressed, the console brake light comes on.
Check the brake light before each ride.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
2. Depress the brake pedal. The brake light should come on after about
10 mm (0.4 in.) of pedal travel. If the light doesn't come on, check
the bulb.
