To see if there is electricity reaching that point.
An incandescent lamp can be used to check continuity of a circuit.
a test lamp i literrally a bulb connected to two wires. it was used to check if you had any current or voltage in a circuit. you would just take the build with the two wires and touch it with the curcuit. if the bulb lights up means that you have a complete circuit if not it means that the curcuit is working. The test lamp is like a medival tool to a multimeter
The big advantage to using a test lamp is that it allows you to know if the circuit is "hot" before you work on it. All good electricians shut the circuit off before starting any work on electrical circuits.
You have an open circuit. Get a test lamp and check the switch,If your test lamp lights up follow the wiring to the bulb to find your open circuit. If it does not light up follow the wiring back towards power source [battery] 'til you find it.
It is a series circuit. In a series circuit, the components are connected in a single path so if one lamp is removed, the circuit is broken and the other lamp will not receive electricity.
Test lamps are used to check for the presence of AC Current. (Source page 59 figure 58) Please try to study guys it isn't that tough. <<>> An incandescent lamp can be used to check continuity of a circuit.
When you turn on a lamp, you are closing the circuit. This allows electricity to flow from the power source, through the lamp, and back to the power source, enabling the lamp to light up.
Depending on what circuit you are testing, you can toast the ECM (Engine Control Module).
The "hot" conductor of the lamp circuit.
No.

If an insulator with a lamp is connected in an electrical circuit and the switch is turned on, the lamp will not light up. Insulators do not allow the flow of electric current, so the circuit will not be completed, and no electricity will reach the lamp to cause it to light up.
