– Pull out hose lock -arrow- and pull off hose connection -1- from
high-level brake light bulb - M25- .
– Release and pull connector -2- off and remove high-level
brake light bulb - M25- .
Installing
Install in the reverse order of removal observing the following:
Note
♦
Failure of light-emitting diodes in high-level brake lights
♦
The individual LEDs (light-emitting diodes) in the high-level
brake light are located together in groups of 3 LEDs and are
supplied with current in groups.
♦
Due to the failure of individual LEDs, the intact LEDs of the
group in question are placed under increased strain and it
must therefore be anticipated that further LED will soon fail as
well.
♦
If an LED group (3 individual light-emitting diodes) fails, the
legal light values of the ECE ruling (ECE = Economic Com‐
mission for Europe) are still complied with.
♦
If more than 3 individual LEDs fail, the legal light values of the
ECE ruling (ECE = Economic Commission for Europe) are no
longer complied with and the lamp for the high-level brake light
must be replaced.
Note
When installing high-level brake light bulb - M25- , ensure seal is
seated correctly. Make sure that the seal is undamaged and that
no loops are formed.
– Push on connector and engage.
– Starting at the lower edge, insert bulb for high-level brake light
into rear lid, making sure it engages securely.
– Check functioning of high-level brake light lamp - M25- .
