It's not if when you're putting the new lamps back in, and you're struggling due to lack of room and big hands, and the lamp fall out of the holder and falls into the bloody headlamp!!!!  >:(

It will go off the second you disconnect the battery if you do not use the correct procedure (disconnect battery within 15s of switch off ignition)...
