Replacing a Dome

The pod domes filter the LED lights and protect the LED and circuitry. If a dome is damaged, it must be 

replaced.

Tool required:

 

T25 Torx driver

Removing a Dome

To remove a light assembly dome:

1.

  Disconnect all power to the light assembly at the battery.

2. 

  See Figure 4. Use a T25 Torx driver to remove the #10-32 Torx shoulder screw.

3. 

  Carefully lift the dome from the back and rotate it to a vertical position to avoid damaging the pod 

hook and pod base gasket.

4. 

  Inspect the gasket on the base of the pod to insure it is not torn, brittle, or damaged. Replace it, if 

necessary.
