INFORMATION ON LAMP ADJUSTER LICENSES
There is only one class of Lamp Adjuster license. If you wish to apply for Lamp and Brake Adjuster licenses at the same
time, two applications must be submitted. Brake and Lamp Adjuster licenses may be held independently of each other.
The class is:
Lamp Class A: May test, inspect, adjust, repair, and certify the lighting systems on all vehicles, including
motorcycles.
Licensed Adjusters may conduct inspections that are required for the issuance of Lamp Certicates of Adjustment, and
also certify that corrections have been made when an enforcement document has been issued for lamp system defects.
These licenses are not required to perform general repairs on brake systems.
NOTE: Technicians must pass an exam every four years to remain licensed. The license expiration dates will be
adjusted so that they expire in the month of the technician’s birthday. Therefore, the license you receive during
the adjustment period will be valid from 37 to 48 months.
IF YOUR APPLICATION IS ACCEPTED, you will be contacted by the examination service contractor to schedule your
examination.
You must bring two forms of ID to the examination. One must be a photo ID. Read the Candidate Handbook for
complete instructions.

If you have a disability or impairment for which you may need assistance during an examination, please call BAR
Licensing at (855) 735-0462 to request an ocial “Special Accommodation Form.” This form must be completed by a
health care professional and be submitted to BAR Licensing with your application.

you will be reported to the Franchise Tax Board, which may assess a $100 penalty against you.

result in application denial, suspension, revocation, or restriction of a license. Once the examination begins no talking or
other communication that may compromise examination security is permitted between applicants. Details are contained
