Now I say key left out of the ignition just in case you go to test something and forget to plug it in first. As long as the ballast plug is on the back of the bulb securely, and the headlight switch is in off or -0-, you'll be fine.



OP, did you put on the earmuffs before pulling the fuse?
Will go that route. Thanks
