TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: This is in reply to your letter of January 22, 1971, to Mr. Charles A. Baker of this Office concerning questions on paragraph S4.1.1.7 of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 108.

"Red" was inadvertently included in paragraph S4.1.1.7 of the amendment to Standard No. 108 published on October 31, 1970. It is anticipated that this paragraph will be further amended in the near future by changing" . . . requirements for Class A red turn signal lamps . . ." to ". . . requirements for Class A turn signal lamps. . ."

The answers to your questions are therefore as follows:

1. Amber turn signal lamps shall conform to the minimum candlepower requirements for Class A amber as specified in Table 2 of SAE J575d.

2. There is no maximum candlepower requirement for amber front turn signal lamps.
