WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Dodge Dakota. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check the fused B(+) fuse (Fuse 1-15 ampere) in the Junction Block (JB). If OK, go to Step 2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component as required and replace the faulty fuse.
  2. Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) fuse (Fuse 1-15 ampere) in the JB. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit between the JB and the Power Distribution Center (PDC) as required.
  3. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Remove the instrument cluster from the instrument panel. Reconnect the battery negative cable. Check for battery voltage at the fused B(+) circuit cavity of the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the instrument cluster. If OK, go to Step 4. If not OK, repair the open fused B(+) circuit between the instrument cluster and the JB as required.
  4. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable. Disconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the Central Timer Module (CTM) from the CTM connector receptacle. Check for continuity between the high beam indicator driver circuit cavities of the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the CTM and the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the instrument cluster. There should be continuity. If OK, go to Step 5. If not OK, repair the open high beam indicator driver circuit between the instrument cluster and the CTM as required.
  5. Reinstall the instrument cluster onto the instrument panel. Reconnect the battery negative cable. Install a jumper wire between the high beam indicator driver circuit cavity of the instrument panel wire harness connector (Connector C1) for the CTM and a good ground. The indicator should illuminate. If OK, diagnose the CTM and its inputs using a DRBIII(R) scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic procedures. If not OK, replace the faulty high beam indicator bulb and bulb holder unit.
