Operating in dark job sites or poorly lit roads makes lighting system maintenance extremely important. Keep your medium-duty trucks compliant with safety regulations by having their lighting systems inspected at Skaha Ford in BC.

These tips can also help identify and prevent lighting system failures for your fleet vehicles:

 
• Look for corrosion: Inspect each vehicle’s lighting system to identify unprotected wiring or connectors and use protective coverings to reduce damage from moisture.

• Perform pre-trip inspections: Get your fleet operators in the habit of inspecting lighting systems before setting out on the road, especially any components on forward-facing surfaces that are exposed to the elements.

• Keep up with regular maintenance: Lighting systems can sometimes be a forgotten maintenance item. If your trucks have burnt-out bulbs or haven’t been inspected in some time, book your trucks in for service.

• Consider LEDs: If your fleet vehicles are using incandescent lamps, consider switching to LEDs, which have a higher light output and are longer lasting.

Corrosion damage and physical degradation of your lighting systems impacts safety, can lead to safety violations and unexpected downtime. Keep your medium-duty trucks running their best with scheduled maintenance from Skaha Ford in BC.

Not only are profit opportunities lost, but operator morale also suffers during periods of extended downtime. 

To keep your Ford fleet in the best possible condition, implement these four maintenance tips from our factory-trained technicians at Skaha Ford in BC:

1. Make Maintenance Routine
Businesses rely on routines to achieve success – and the same should be true for your fleet. Book planned downtime into your operating schedule to ensure regular inspections and maintenance are completed on all medium-duty trucks. These periods of proactive fleet care will reduce longer stretches of unplanned downtime in the future.

2. Stop Delaying Repairs
Instead of ignoring problems with vehicles in your commercial fleet, address them right away. Not only will this ensure operator safety, but it can also avoid larger, more costly repairs down the road. 

3. Keep Records of Maintenance Services and Repairs
It’s essential to know what maintenance has been completed on medium-duty trucks and when. Be sure to keep accurate records anytime your fleet vehicles undergo service or repairs.

4. Trust the Experts
Don’t trust your F-450, F-550, F-650 or F-750 to just any mechanic – take it to the experts that know it best. Only Ford factory-trained technicians have the right tools, equipment and knowledge to maintain and repair medium-duty trucks to manufacturer specifications. Failing to work with an experienced team can lead to missed early indicators of damage, incorrect repairs, limited access to OEM parts and downtime.
