4.4.2.6 Both Bulbs Do Not Light
Possible Causes Step Troubleshooting Procedure Comments
Bad bulb 1. Remove observation light assembly. Bladed screwdriver
2.
Disconnect bulb from socket. Test bulb with Ohm
Meter (should be < 1 Ohm).
3. Replace bulb if continuity test fails.
Bad harness/ bad
socket
4.
Open rear cover and disconnect harness at J26 on
Power PCA.
Open in lamp wiring 5.
With all bulbs installed, check continuity at harness
pins 1-3, and 2-4.
East side bulb:
pins 1, 3
West side bulb:
pins 2, 4
Short in lamp wiring 6.
With all bulbs removed, check for open at harness
pins 1-3, and 2-4.
7.

PCA.
Bad relay on Power
PCA
6. If fuses and Dimmer Pot OK, replace Power PCA
Bad transformer 7.
Re-connect transformer harness (J24) at Power
PCA. Transformer output must have at least one
good bulb attached to check output (lamp voltage).
