The procedures contained in this specification cover the laboratory testing of miniature incandescent bulbs for use in automotive illumination and signaling applications.

This standard provides a test method for determining the torque-tension relationship of both external and internal metric threaded fasteners for the purpose of measuring the frictional characteristics of the threaded fasteners. The results obtained by this test are relevant to the test conditions only and should not be utilized for specific applications.

This specification is a general level subsystem light source specification that establishes test requirements of light emitting diode (LED) components and modules for use in automotive lighting systems. The completed test data from this test specification is intended to be provided to the OEM by the Tier 1 lamp set maker as part of the lamp assembly PPAP. Re-testing shall be required if any portion of the approved LED module experiences a design, manufacturing, or component change. This document shall be applied to systems that meet the requirements for design, performance, and validation established by government standards. The LED module is defined as the LED devices and any electronics required to properly energize the LEDs using a vehicle electrical power system along with any associated electrical wiring, connectors, and thermal management system. Samples shall be tested as a subsystem and considered one test sample for the entire test sequence.

This specification establishes the requirements and test procedures for automotive miniature bulb retention devices, including wedge base sockets with integral connectors, direct wire wedge base sockets, bayonet base sockets with integral connectors, direct wire bayonet base sockets, wedge base and bayonet base sockets with circuit plate assemblies, and associated interfaces. Tests shall follow the sequence shown in the flow charts in Appendices E and F whenever the following occurs: New design. Design, material, or process change made to an existing device, which could affect the outcome of the test. The test sequences shown in Appendix G shall be run annually.

This standard outlines the conditions that enhance the risk of hydrogen embrittlement of steel. It also defines the relief procedures required to minimize the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. SAE/USCAR-5 is intended to control the process.

This standard outlines the conditions that enhance the risk of hydrogen embrittlement of steel and define the relief procedures required to minimize the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. It is intended to control the process. 1.1 Hydrogen embrittlement of steel, which can cause brittle fractures under stress, occurs as a result of the absorption of hydrogen during cleaning, phosphate coating and plating processes. The susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement increases with increasing stress (internal or externally applied stress) and increasing material strength. 1.2 Hardness readings in this specification are in Vickers scale. SAE J417 should be referred to for conversion to other scales. NOTE 1: All references to temperatures relate to part core temperature and not the indicated oven air temperature. Statistical data of verifications in temperature at the center of the oven load and oven temperature shall be established to develop the oven profile.
