Don't forget to have the CA Mandated Red Light standby light on the American LaFrance rig.

Hmm that's odd, I've done so much research on the steady burn lights and it all comes back to a California law that all emergency vehicles no matter what department are required to have a minimum of 1 red steady burn light facing the front of the vehicle, I've also found that the law was invented in attempt to stop fake cops or anyone that tries to play as emergency personnel but i don't know how true that part really is cause i know the law was made years ago.

Maybe firetrucks are an exception because there wouldnt be such thing as a fake firetruck, especially a tiller ladder. So they made an exception for that vehicle. The engine responding with it appears to have 2 red lights on the lightbar.

Like i said its a requirement but maybe tillers don't need them, As for the engine any unit can have 2 red lights but there is a minimum of 1 so some units might have 2 or 3 but it all depends on department SOPs along with any other city and/or county laws.

There are no exceptions. In CA the entire definition of an emergency vehicle revolves around the presence of at least one steady burning red light. It's a state law so it rings true for every agency in the state.
Often times, especially on older vehicles with rotary style lights, the steady burning light is a small light or two underneath the lightbar.

Perhaps the ALF tiller had one light and it was burned out in the video?

@Chris07

 

I have already found the steady burn light, but thank you for your Explanation. Itchboy now will have an idea on this CA Law.

Hey itchboy do you think you could include this LAX truck in your modification?     https://www.youtube....h?v=gE3G3FZOzHg

@Corsair @Itchboy

IMO, Engine 51 seems useless in LA Mod, since there is only one mission it would be useful for, plus it is just a reskin that will be required to make it look like E51.

[Corsair]

I agree too but it would be useful to make a map like the la mod woods since it has a airport near it 

[RangerConlin]

It looks to be the same engine as the one he's already made. A simple reskin is all that's required.

[Newfoundking]

Corsair, I have to disagree with you completely on that "It'd be useful to make a map like..." comment. That's ridiculous to state. "Make a new map, so you can reskin a vehicle already in game and have a purpose for it, while there's already a crash tender in the game"

Comments like *make x, y and z so that i can blah* are quite annoying. I'd feel better and actually be in the mood to mod stuff. Comments like the ones that were discussing the lights on the LaFrance tiller and Seagrave engine motivated me to actualy finish the lights yesterday.

@theparanoid

I have already discussed with Itchboy with the issue of the Steady Burn Light on the tiller. I have already mentioned about this on the same page. (Post #487)

 

@itchboy

Please refer to the Steady Burn Light on the tiller to Post #487. (It is steady burn on the Right Side facing forward, Top Right Red Light).
