Wobbly lights

Post by Graeme H » Mon Feb 21, 2005 11:00 pm

Hi all
my passenger side head light vibrates! I've changed the bulbs over, so it's not the filament, I've had the barn door cover off and tightened the adjuster bump stop, and the armature linkages all seem to be tight. It still wobbles...any other suggestions as to the cure?

Could be because its green like jelly
Could be the type of beer you drink

Thanks Mike...it could be the beer, but it's still wobbling in the mornings too :0) maybe I should drink more shandy.
It's not a problem, but appears to be worse now that I've fiddled with it (isn't that just always the way?)!!
Perhaps if I pack the light with more jelly, but add less water...hmmmm :0)

cheers

Hi Graeme, the nylon bush on the arm wears after awhile and gets a bit of slack which can cause the light to shake. The bolt on the armature end is serated, undo and try moving one seration. Any problems give me a call and pop around.
Cheers Nige
