Battery voltage is supplied to the headlamp switch through circuit 195 (TN/WH). The instrument panel dimmer switch is an integral part of the headlamp switch. The instrument panel dimmer switch controls and sends a variable voltage supply to the central junction box (CJB) fuse 36 (5A) through circuit 1045 (DB/WH). Circuit 19 (LB/RD) then provides the variable voltage to the various illumination components.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Fuse
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Instrument panel dimmer switch (part of the headlamp switch)
