4. Disconnect the bulb from the socket
assembly and install the replacement bulb.
5. Reinstall the bulb and socket assembly into
the headlamp assembly, and then turn it
clockwise.
6. Reinstall the access cap making sure it is
seated into the housing and turn cap
clockwise to engage locking lugs. Visually,
you should be unable to see the blue O-ring
gasket. The access cap should be uniformly
seated and you should not be able to pull
the access cap off without turning it
counterclockwise.
CAUTION!
Do not touch the new bulb with your fingers.
Oil contamination will severely shorten bulb
life. If the bulb comes in contact with any oily
surface, clean the bulb with rubbing alcohol.
CAUTION!
If the access cap is not installed correctly
after bulb replacement, the lamp becomes
susceptible to dust, condensation, and water
intrusion. This may ultimately lead to an
inoperative lamp. If the access cap cannot be
installed correctly, please return to an
authorized dealer for proper repair or access
cap replacement if necessary.
