Can someone tell me the correct rear light / stop light bulbs for my A3k please ?.....the old girl is the 6 volt version....the Haynes manual that I have contradicts itself, in the lighting section it states that the rear light is 6v 5 w....and stop light 6v 15w.....the wiring diagram has this the other way round, I think the first option is correct, but just looking for clarification.....Thanks.
Yeah stop light should be higher wattage
Thanks for that, yes I reckon so, first time I've known a Haynes manual to make a mistake on a wiring diagram......
A 6v10w bulb can also be used for the brake light.
1157 or 1156 depending on single or double filament.
1156 and 1157 are 12v bulbs, for what it's worth.
I've used the 1154 6v dual filament where applicable as tail/break and hi/lo headlights in a pinch. They go on old tractors and pre-66 VW's. They aren't 5/10, but more like 5.?/16 ? watts. A lot of auto parts stores have them on the shelf for about $6 a pair.
Then, if need be, pick up the exact bulbs from your favorite moped parts online store.
They work even tho they are 12v. They have the right resistance factor too.
