MAINTENANCE AND LUBRICATION
Lights
When servicing a halogen lamp, don’t touch the lamp with bare
fingers. Oil from your skin leaves a residue, causing a hot spot that
will shorten the life of the lamp.

1. Remove the three screws on the headlight pod.
2. Using a small flat-blade screwdriver, push in on the lock tabs
through the two small openings at the front of the headlight pod.
3. Lift the pod slightly while depressing the tabs.
4. Lift the pod cover and disconnect the speedometer harnesses from
the speedometer. Unplug the indicator light harness and remove
the pod cover.

the connector, not on the wiring.

new bulb.
