If candles накаливания have no mechanical damages, check up their electric resistance which owes a life less than 1 Ohm.

Working capacity of candles накаливания can be checked up, submitting on them of 12 volt. Thus they should heat up in regular intervals and for a demanded interval of time. Thus it is necessary to observe precautions:

To hold a candle накаливания a special clip or flat-nose pliers.

The electric feed circuit of a candle накаливания should have the fuse.
