use a voltage tester to see if there is voltage at the base pin
Yes, you can plug a 220V light bulb into a 240V base. The slight increase in voltage should not affect the operation of the light bulb significantly, as most light bulbs have a tolerance range built-in to handle small voltage fluctuations. However, it's always a good idea to check the manufacturer's specifications for the light bulb to ensure safe operation.
There are a few signs that a halogen bulb is no longer functioning properly. First, if the bulb flickers or has inconsistent light output, it may be nearing the end of its lifespan. Additionally, if the bulb becomes dimmer over time or if it completely stops working, it is likely no longer functional. Lastly, if you notice any discoloration or visible damage to the bulb, it should be replaced.
I have seen it both ways. Usually it is the bulb which is a few bucks. The ballast will cost more and could cost $15-$30 bucks depending on type. If you have another bulb that is working, swap it with the flicker light and see if the problem goes away. If the swapped bulb works, I always put the bad bulb in the fixture where the good bulb came from. If the bad bulb now works, you could have a seating problem with the bulb. If it flickers, replace it.
The base of the bulb obviously determines where it can fit and for most home fixture cases determines the voltage (Unfortunately there are many speciality bulbs where the base can fit different voltage situations and you have to be more careful). Light fixtures are rated for a maximum wattage. Bulbs have both a wattage and voltage rating. So if the halogen fits the base, is the same voltage and the fixture is rated for 45 watts or better, then you are good to go.
I am going to assume you meant Three wires, Battery and Light Bulb. (punctuation and plurals are important) Hook the light to one post of the battery Hooked from the light to the item being tested (use the other light connection, not the one connected to the battery) connect the other end of the test item to the unused terminal on the battery. Light comes on means it conducts electricity No Light, it does not.
Check in different outlets - you may have a problem with the outlet. Check that you have electricity in your house, for example, by lighting another light bulb. If the bulb still doesn't turn on, then probably the bulb is NOT good.
Sometimes the burnt out light warning light will come on with a good bulb with some corrosion. Take out each bulb and check for corrosion around the base of them and clean them up with some fine grit sandpaper.
Simply turn on the ignition but do not attempt to start the engine. If the light bulb is good you will see the Check Engine light illuminate and stay on. If you do not see the Check Engine light, the bulb is defective or has been removed.
please check earth wire or clean bulb holder for not earthing
First make sure the bulb is there and not burnt out. Then check to see if there is power going to the light bulb. If there is no power check the fuse and the wiring leading to the light for an open. If there is power and the bulb is good the connector is bad.
A multimeter is a good tool to check for a short in the brake light. Put one end of the meter on one side of the wire near the brake light. Put the other end on the metal that is around the bottom of the bulb. If the bulb does not light up, there is a short. If the bulb lights up, there is no short in the wire.
If you have trouble codes and the build is known to be good, but will not light up, you have a bad power feed to the bulb, or a bad ground to it.

Check the bulb or bulbs. If not the problem, check to see if they have a good ground.
Check socket for power/ground corrosion Check stop light switch for power on one side Check fuse
It will be like a generator and generate it to light up the light bulb. I hope this helped you and good luck with your answer!
