LUMINOUS INTENSITY MEASUREMENT
Measure the luminous intensity of headlights with a photo-me-ter in accordance with the instruction manual prepared by
the manufacturer of the photometer and make sure that the
luminous intensity is within the following limit.Limit: 20,000 cd or more
NOTE
(1) When measuring the luminous intensity of headlight, keepthe engine at 2,000 rpm and have the battery charged.
(2) If there are specific regulations for luminous intensity ofheadlights in the region where the vehicle is operated,
make sure that the intensity conforms to the requirements
of such regulations.
FOG LIGHT AIMING
1.Place vehicle on a known level floor 7.6 m (25 feet) from
aiming screen or light colored wall.
2. Use adjusting screw to adjust the top end of high intensity
zone to dimension A.
BULB REPLACEMENT
1. Disconnect the connector.
2. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise to pull it out.
Caution
Do not touch the surface of the headlight bulb with handsor dirty gloves. If the surface dies become dirty, clean
it with alcohol or thinner, and let it dry thoroughly before
installing.

Repair or replace electricalcomponents.
Return parts or wiring to
their proper position.
Caution
1.Connecting a high tension cable to the noise
filter may destroy the noise filter and shouldnever be done.
2.Check that there is no external noise. Since
failure to do this may result in misdiagnosis
due to inability to identify the noise source,
this operation must be performed.3. Noise prevention should be performed by
suppressing strong sources of noise step
by step.
NOTE
1. Condenser
The condenser does not pass D.C. current, butas the number of waves increases when it
passes A.C. current, impedance (resistanceagainst A.C.) decreases, and current flow is
facilitated. A noise suppressing condenser
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted between the power line for the noise
source and the ground. This suppresses noiseby grounding the noise component (A.C. or
pulse signal) to the body of the vehicle.
2. Coil
The coil passes D.C. current, but impedance
rises as the number of waves increases relativeto the A.C. current. A noise suppressing coil
which takes advantage of this property is in-
serted into the power line for the noise source,
and works by preventing the noise componentfrom flowing or radiating out of the line.

Cases where the problem
is not eliminated by a single
response to one area are
common, due to several

About multipath noise and fading noise
Because the frequency of FM waves is extreme-
ly high, it is highly susceptible to effects from
geological formations and buildings. These ef-
fects disrupt the broadcast signal and obstruct
‘reception in several ways.l Multipath noise
This describes the echo that occurs when the
broadcast signal is reflected by a large obstruc-
tion and enters the receiver with a slight time
delay relative to the direct signal (repetitious
buzzing).l Fading noise
This is a buzzing noise that occurs when the
broadcast beam is disrupted by obstructing ob-
jects and the signal strength fluctuates intricately
within a narrow range.
