BFWS 200 1992

Couple of amateur tips on chasing BFWS (bulb failure warning sensor) troubles:

1) Remove the D+ wire at the alternator (small red) if you want to check things with the motor not running, like in the garage. Just be sure to put it back.

2) Use a stick (like a snow brush?) wedged between chair and brake pedal.

3) Work at dusk or later. It is easier to see differences in light intensity, and also, it takes less effort to peer through the windows to see if the warning light is on.
