Hello everyone it's 'Lurgs here welcome to my channel and today how to replace the
front indicator bulbs on your Vespa GTS, now all you're gonna need for this today
is your cross head screwdriver and your new bulbs, right let's get cracking
now this should be the same procedure for all Vespa GTS models and before we
get started there's a link above now about the battery location and how to
check the battery on your Vespa GTS, so one of the bulbs I'm going to replace is
gonna be on this side and it should be exactly the same procedure if you want
to change the bulbs on the other side, right so let's just put the indicator
bulbs on, so just flip the switch over on the dashboard you get the indicator
flashing and on the front here we've actually got two bulbs one at the top
and one at the bottom, I don't know if that's a safety feature just in case one
of them blows?
So take your cross head screwdriver and then unscrew it anti-clockwise and put
the screw somewhere where you're not going to lose it, just put it on the foot well
there and it's very easy to remove you just use your hand don't need to
prise it out with the screwdriver or anything and there we go there are the two
bulbs there and there's a link above now about the fuse box location and how to
check the fuses on your Vespa GTS, okay to remove one of the bulbs grab hold of
the rubber there and just keep wiggling it about and pulling it out towards you
it's not a screw or thread or anything and there we go and to remove
the actual bulb you just pull the bulb out again this isn't on a screw thread
or anything it literally just pulls out,
and there we go, now i'll just show you what the bulb is it's a 12-volt 5 watt
and it is an orange bulb so make sure you get an orange bulb when you buy your
replacement you don't want a clear bulb, and that's where it slots in there so
it's very simple, so take your new bulb make sure it's exactly the same and it's
an orange glass bulb and to put it in is a very simple procedure, just push it in
very gently there's a link above now about the recommended tire pressures on
your Vespa GTS, okay so the bulb is in there now
and to put it back into the housing just keep pushing it and wiggling it about
until it goes all the way home, make sure it's right up against as far as it can
go and there we go, now to put the bulb housing back in
there's a small little divot at the top of make sure that that goes underneath
the frame there at the front, so just push that in and under and it just
slides up it's very important that that tucks up underneath there, once that's
tucked up underneath it should just line up with the screw thread and then you
can just get that screw back in and there's a link above now about how to put
your Vespa on the center stand, as with any screws just put it in with your
hand first just so you don't cross thread it, once you're happy that it's
taking the thread then you can get your cross head screwdriver and just tighten
it up, don't over tighten it though it doesn't need to be super tight, okay
that's all done so let's just turn the indicator on just to make sure it's all
working, superb, now it's time for a lovely cup of tea oh,
