Section 2.1.1 SAE telephone numbers and web site added.
-
Section 2.2.1 SAE telephone numbers and web site added.
-
Federal publication web site added.
-
European Community web site added.
-
Section 3.1 Definition of stop lamp was revised.
-
Section 5.1.5.1 thru 5.1.5.3.2 Removed underlining, bold text, and made numbering consistent.
-
Section 5.1.5.3 Removed size 2 or 3 lamps – redundant.
-
Section 5.1.5.3.1 Removed because of redundancy – renumbered subsequent sections.

Section 6.1 Statement on the requirements for LED lamps added.
-
Section 6.1.5.1 and 6.1.5.3 Bold lettering removed.
-
Section 6.1.5.4 corrected reference to 6.1.5.3.
-
Table 1 added. Table 2 was completely changed to the new format Figures 3, 4 and 5 requested by Signaling and Marking Device Committee. Values are the same.
-
Section 6.6.2a Wording was modified for consistency with FMVSS 108.
-
Figure 1 correction was made to the location of 15° angles.
-
Section 7.1.2 was added to identify stop signal priority to turn signal and hazard warning signal.
-
Section 7.1.2.1 Turn signal has priority since typically there are two other stop lamps to signal deceleration or a stopped vehicle.
-
7.1.2.2 Stop lamp must take priority over hazard warning signal since stop lamp indicates a decelerating or stopped vehicle whereas hazard warning may indicate a vehicle traveling less than posted minimum speed.

Issuing Committee
Signaling and Marking Devices Stds Comm
The Signaling and Marking Devices Standards Committee is part of the Lighting Systems Steering Committee that reports to the Motor Vehicle Council (MVC). The Committee is responsible for developing and maintaining SAE Standards, Recommended Practices, and Information Reports related to exterior lighting devices used on passenger cars, light trucks, vans and multipurpose vehicles. The Committee monitors the development of related technologies and determines how they may be applied to signaling and marking devices, while also working towards the development of standards to aid in the application of various technologies. The following task forces have been developed under the committee's scope: J1889 LED Signal Lighting Task Force New Technology Signal Lighting Task Force J2030 Discharge Signal Lighting Task Force Geometric Visibility Task Force Miniature Bulb Task Force J593 Backup Lamp (Reversing Lamp) Task Force J2087 Daytime Running Lamp Task Force Side Mirror Turn Signal Task Force Participants in the SAE Signaling and Marking Devices Standards Committee include OEMs, suppliers, consulting firms, government, and other interested parties.
