Bulb Replacement

NOTICE

When replacement is required, use only the specified sealed beam unit or bulb, available from a Harley-Davidson dealer. An improper wattage sealed beam or bulb, can cause charging system problems. (00209a)

NOTE

The headlamp uses a replaceable quartz halogen bulb which is very delicate and must be handled with care.

1.	Remove headlamp assembly.
2.	Remove rubber boot at back of housing.
3.	See Figure 2. Release wire retaining clip (1) from retainer (2). Swing wire retaining clip out of the way. NOTE It may be necessary to loosen retainer screw 1/2-1 turn to release wire retaining clip.
	WARNING Handle bulb carefully and wear eye protection. Bulb contains gas under pressure, which, if not handled carefully, could cause serious eye injury. (00062b)

	NOTICE Never touch the quartz bulb. Fingerprints will etch the glass and decrease bulb life. Handle the bulb with paper or a clean, dry cloth. Failure to do so could result in bulb damage. (00210b)
