Inspection Procedure

Electrical

Headlamp

Tap the starter switch to verify that the headlamp illuminates. Switch to high

beam. Verify that the high beam indicator comes on and that lamp brightness

increases.

Taillight/Brakelight

Verify that the taillight and license plate light illuminate. If a turn signal is acti-

vated, only the two lower lamps will illuminate. Verify that the taillight lamps

increase in brightness when the front brake lever is applied and also when the

rear brake pedal is applied.

Turn Signals

Move the turn signal switch to the left. Verify that front and rear left turn signals

flash, as well as the corresponding light on the indicator panel. Push the switch

inward to cancel the signal. Verify that the signals and the indicator light stop

flashing. Repeat the procedure for the right turn signals.
