Warning Lights
orbital - 15/1/09 at 10:33 AM

Morning all,

Just a quick one.

Do the warning lights for the indicators have to have an arrow on them? Or will just a green light for direction be OK? Same for the full beam light. Does that need a light emblem on it?

Bugger. Just realised this should have gone in the electrics bit shouldn't it really

Thanks

Dave

indicators - one or two green lights will be fine.

main beam - should be blue - doesn't need any symbols.

The only thing that needs a symbol is the brake warning light - the (!) sign.

snippet take from SVA manual. Should be pretty clear as to what is needed.

this is for indicators - you must have changed your post to include the main beam.

That’s quite amusing as with my beach buggy it failed the MOT the first time and one of the fail points was that I’d not fitted indicator tell tail lights. I said I didn’t need them really as in could cleary see the front ones reflected in the chrome headlamps!! Nope he was having none of it so I fitted them, waste of time IMO

oh and their just round lights

The consultation IVA document, Section 33 does state the the tell tale warning lights need to be clearly marked. Table A & B define the markings required and the colours of the warning lights.
