Mark 1 version - side-lamps (and headlight bulbs) can be replaced following the directions in the handbook, but it's all done by touch and feel since you can't see a thing. It helps if your hands and fingers are not too large, and you might be bent over the front of the car for a while especially if the bulb retaining clip decides to spring off from its fitting. after replacing one bulb I took it to local independent repair shop who did it in 5 minutes for a fiver.

Mark 2 - bulb replacement requires the removal of the font bumper - can be a DIY job (but beware if you have headlamp washers set into bumper). Citroen dealer wanted to charge £!00; same local repairer as above did it for £45. A crazy arrangement, but apparently more and more common across a range of makes and models.

How many volts should I be reading at a fluorescent bulb?

The voltage present on the secondary side of the ballast (transformer) varies as to the type of fluorescent tube or bulb that is in the fixture. The voltage will always be higher that the applied line voltage that supplies the ballast.If the fluorescent bulb screws into a lamp type of fixture, then there is no way to measure the voltage at the bulb as the tube and ballast are a combined sealed unit.

How do you fix directional signals when one side blinks really fast?

Often a fast-flashing turn indicator (inside the car) means either the front or rear turn signal bulb is burned out. Check the actual turn signals and see if they are working. If not, just replace the bulb.


Why does heat from the top of the bulb feels different from the heat on the side of the bulb?

The heat from the filament radiates in all directions inside the bulb (as there is no air for convection). Once the heat reaches the glass the heat is now transmitted by both radiation and convection.Hot air rises so the air on the side of the bulb is heated and it rises up, it is now replaced by cooler air which needs to be heated. So the air on the side of the bulb is colder than the air on top. If you hand is on top of the bulb it will be heated by the air raising from the side as well as the top.
