Technical Specifications

Installation Guide

1. Disconnect the Battery: For safety, remove the negative terminal of the vehicle battery before working on electrical components.
2. Remove the Existing Indicator: Unscrew or unclip the old side flasher from its mounting bracket. Carefully detach any wiring harnesses attached to the lamp.
3. Connect the New Lamp: Align the plug of the Van Wezel 5810913 with the vehicle’s connector and secure it firmly. Ensure that the polarity matches; most connectors are keyed to prevent reverse installation.
4. Secure the Housing: Reattach the lamp to its mounting bracket using the original screws or clips. Verify that the housing sits flush against the bodywork to avoid wind noise.
5. Reconnect the Battery and Test: Restore the negative battery terminal, then activate the vehicle’s side indicator switch. Observe the new lamp for proper flashing frequency (typically 1–2 Hz) and brightness.
