  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the P16 Instrument Cluster, ignition ON.
  2. Verify a test lamp illuminates between the Ignition voltage circuit terminal 19 and ground.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is good 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ignition voltage circuit end to end.
      • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 Ω, verify the fuse is not open and there is voltage at the fuse.
    • If the test lamp does not illuminate and the circuit fuse is open 
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Test for infinite resistance between the ignition voltage circuit and ground.
      • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance, test all components connected to the ignition voltage circuit and replace as necessary.
    • If the test lamp illuminates 
  3. Replace the P16 Instrument Cluster.
