or wear, proper connections, and also for con-
tinuity between the terminals.

bulb socket or both.
Improperly connected  Properly connect.
No continuity  Repair or replace the bulb,
bulb socket or both.
Types of bulbs
The bulbs used on this vehicle are shown in the
illustration on the left.
• Bulbs “a” and “b” are used for the headlights
and usually use a bulb holder that must be de-
tached before removing the bulb. The majority
of these types of bulbs can be removed from
their respective socket by turning them coun-
terclockwise.
• Bulbs “c” is used for turn signal and can be re-
moved from the socket by pushing and turn-
ing the bulb counterclockwise.

moving the bulb. Never pull the lead, oth-
erwise it may be pulled out of the terminal

the bulb, and the luminous flux will be ad-
versely affected. If the headlight bulb gets
soiled, thoroughly it with a cloth moist-
ened with alcohol or lacquer thinner.
