Trouble DiagnosesNBEL0189WARNING:
IThe xenon headlamp has a high-tension current generating area. Be extremely careful when remov-
ing and installing. Be certain to disconnect the battery negative cable prior to removing or install-
ing.
IWhen the xenon headlamp is lit, do not touch the harness (covered with red or amber insulation),
bulb itself or the bulb socket with your bare hands.
INever service a xenon headlamp with wet hands.
IWhen checking body side harness with a circuit tester, be certain to disconnect the harness con-
nector from the xenon headlamp.
IWhen the xenon headlamp is lit, the xenon bulb must be installed in the headlamp housing. (Never
turn on xenon headlamp, if the bulb is out of the headlamp housing.)
CAUTION:
Make sure to install the bulb securely; if the xenon bulb is improperly installed in its socket, high-ten-
sion current leaks occur. This may lead to a melted bulb and/or bulb socket.
