OPERATING INCIDENTS(continued)
Electrical equipment CAUSES REMEDIAL ACTION
• Headlights
do not work.On one side: - bulb blown. Replace the bulb.
- feed wire disconnected or connector
out of position.Check and reconnect the wire or the
connector.
- faulty earth. See above.
On both sides: - if the circuit is protected by a fuse. Check and replace the fuse if necessary.
• Traces of condensation in the lights. This is not a fault. The presence of
traces of condensation in the lights is
a natural phenomenon concerned
with variations in temperature.
These traces will disappear quickly
once the lights are in use.
