Pinpoint Test H: An Individual Demand Lamp Is Inoperative
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mercury Mariner and 2008 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE:
Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
- H1 CHECK CIRCUIT CLN09 (YE/GN) FOR VOLTAGE
- Disconnect: Suspect Demand Lamp
- Key in ON position.
- Measure the voltage between the suspect demand lamp, harness side and ground as follows:
Location Connector-Pin Circuit RH vanity mirror lamp C906-1 CLN09 (YE/GN) LH vanity mirror lamp C907-1 CLN09 (YE/GN) Cargo lamp C926a-1 CLN09 (YE/GN) Courtesy/map lamp C931-2 CLN09 (YE/GN) Front courtesy lamp C918-3 CLN09 (YE/GN) - Is the voltage greater than 10 volts?
- YES : Go to H2.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit in question. TEST the system for normal operation.
- H2 CHECK CIRCUIT GD182 (BK/GY) FOR AN OPEN
- Measure the resistance between the suspect demand lamp, harness side and ground as follows:
Location Connector-Pin Circuit RH vanity mirror lamp C906-2 GD182 (BK/GY) LH vanity mirror lamp C907-2 GD182 (BK/GY) Cargo lamp C926b-1 GD182 (BK/GY) Courtesy/map lamp C931-1 GD182 (BK/GY) Front courtesy lamp C918-2 GD182 (BK/GY) - Is the resistance less than 5 ohms?
- YES : INSTALL a new lamp in question. TEST the system for normal operation.
- NO : REPAIR the circuit in question. TEST the system for normal operation.
- Measure the resistance between the suspect demand lamp, harness side and ground as follows:
