Trouble Diagnoses EKS00N4Y
WARNING:

Xenon headlamp has a high-tension current generating area. Be extremely careful when removing
and installing. Be certain to disconnect battery negative cable prior to removing or installing.

When xenon headlamp is lit, never touch harness (covered with red or amber insulation), bulb
itself or bulb socket with your bare hands

Never service a xenon headlamp with wet hands.

When checking body side harness with a circuit tester, be certain to disconnect harness connec-
tor from xenon headlamp.

When xenon headlamp is lit, xenon bulb must be installed in headlamp housing. (Never turn on
xenon headlamp, if bulb is out of headlamp housing.)
CAUTION:
Make sure to install bulb securely; if xenon bulb is improperly installed in its socket, high-tension cur-
rent leaks occur. This may lead to a melted bulb and/or bulb socket.
