Test Aa: Message Center Lamp Out Warning Indicator Inoperative

NOTE: Ensure Front Electronic Module (FEM) and Rear Electronic Module (REM) operate correctly and communicate with instrument cluster and message center.
  1. Operate each exterior light and observe operation. If all exterior lights operate correctly, go to next step. If any exterior light does not operate correctly, repair appropriate light as necessary. See AUTOLAMP SYSTEMS - WINDSTAR article.
  2. Disconnect all instrument cluster harness connectors. Inspect for corrosion and pushed out pins. Connect all instrument cluster harness connectors, ensuring they seat correctly. Operate system and verify if concern is still present. If concern is still present, replace instrument cluster. Clear DTCs and perform instrument cluster self-test. If concern is not present, system is operating correctly at this time. Concern may have been caused by a loose or corroded connector.
