Halcyon Primary Light General Troubleshooting
What to do if your light does not work
1. Verify that the baery is properly connected, that all wire connecons are
secure, and that the baery is not completely drained. Use a volt meter to
verify that the baery has at least some voltage. The baery should read
at least 12.5 volts. If you believe that your power pack has failed, test the
quesonable light head with a dierent baery.
For HID Lighng:
2. Verify that the HID bulb is not damaged. If the bulb needs to be changed,
please refer to the manual secon on changing the bulb. Remember to be
careful removing the lamp cover and to avoid touching the bulb with your
bare hands.
3. Verify that the HID bulb is seated properly in the socket. Occasionally the
HID bulb connecon can be compromised if the light head is suciently
bumped or jarred during transport. To check the HID bulb seang, the
lamp cover must be removed. For a comprehensive discussion of this pro-
cess please see the manual secon on changing a bulb. In general, be sure
that the HID bulb is not touched directly and that you are careful removing
the lamp cover.
4. If you suspect the switch may be the problem, please contact Tech Ser-
vices for assistance.
What to do with an HID light that works sporadically
If your HID light ickers or only works sporadically, it is very likely to be the
result of a poor connecon. It is possible that this weak connecon is at
the bulb and socket, or that wires leading to the baery are frayed. Please
consult the troubleshoong secon entled "What to do if your light does
not work" for more detail on correcng these problems.
A sporadic HID light is more likely the result of a poor connecon in the cord.
Test for a poor connecon or a kink in the cord by working the cord back
and forth, starng by the light head and working back toward the canister,
to see if the sporadic problem can be iniated. A kink in the cord is likely to
eventually break the wire connecons within the cord.
