B. Lighting Tests and Checks

The battery provides power for operation of the headlight, taillight, and meter lights. If none of the above operates, always check battery voltage before proceeding further. Low battery voltage indicates either a faulty battery, low battery water, or a defective charging system. See "CHARGING SYSTEM" for checks of battery and charging system. Also check fuse condition. Replace any "open" fuses. There are individual fuses for various circuits (see complete Circuit Diagram).

NOTE:

Check the headlight bulb first before performing the following check.

1. Headlight check

NOTE:

When the main switch is turned to "ON", the headlight and meter lights come on automatically and the lights stay on until the ignition switch is turned to "OFF" even if the engine stalls.
