NATIONAL CAR TEST (<strong>NCT</strong>) MANUAL 2012<br />
Method of <strong>Testing</strong><br />
1.<br />
2.<br />
Check that each auxiliary lamp fitted is securely and correctly fixed to the vehicle.<br />
Check that the switching mechanism is functioning correctly and that any auxiliary lamps set in the headlamp main beam<br />
position are extinguished when the headlamp dipped beams are brought into operation.<br />
NOTES<br />
1. Where auxiliary lamps are found to be inoperative, this should not be considered a reason for failure.<br />
2. A broken glass on an auxiliary lamp or fog lamp is not a reason for failure unless the crack or break is<br />
large enough to insert a sheet of paper as used in the test.<br />
