Husqvarna 401 Vitpilen - Owner's Manual > Changing the turn signal bulb

Note

Damage to reflector Grease on the reflector reduces the brightness.

Grease on the bulb will evaporate due to the heat and be deposited on the reflector.

• Clean and degrease the bulbs before mounting.
• Do not touch the bulbs with your bare hands.

• Remove the screw on the rear of the turn signal housing.
• Carefully remove diffuser 1.
• Push bulb 2 lightly into the socket, turn approx. 30º counterclockwise, and pull it out of the socket.

Info

Do not touch the reflector with your fingers and keep it free from grease.

Checking the headlight setting

• Position the vehicle upright on a horizontal surface in front of a light wall and make a marking at the height of the center of the low beam headlight.
