460 lights

Feb 6th, 2003, 23:35

Is it me or are the headlights on the 460 rubbish?. I even replaced the main bulbs with the newer brighter bulbs and its made hardly any difference.

Could someone with a manual give me the distance i need to be from a wall and the height the beam should be at so I can check them

many thanks

Just a small tip Andy. Make sure that the earths for the lamps are OK and measure the voltage at the bulbs when they are on. If the reading is lower than the battery voltage then you have some high resitance connections somewhere along the line. It may be that the wiring is not man enough for the job and may need to be increased in current capability.

All the best, Peter
