Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate inoperative headlamp assembly.
  2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 7 and ground.
  3. If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  4. Ignition ON, verify a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 6 and ground. The test lamp should turn ON.
  5. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  6. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S30 Headlamp Switch.
  7. Ignition ON, connect a test lamp between the ignition circuit terminal 9 and ground. The test lamp should turn ON.
  8. If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
  9. Test for less than 0.3 V between the signal circuit terminal 10 and ground.
  10. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage.
  11. Ignition OFF, install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 10 and B+. Check fuse from jumper wire.
  12. If the fuse is blown, test the signal circuit for a short to ground.
  13. Disconnect the 3 A fused jumper wire, test for less than 5 Ω between the signal circuit terminal 10 at the S30 Headlamp Switch and the control circuit terminal 8 at the appropriate headlamp assembly.
  14. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance.
  15. Reconnect the harness connector at the S30 Headlamp Switch.
  16. Ignition ON, test for 2.5-7 V between the control circuit terminal 8 at the appropriate headlamp assembly and ground. Move the switch for headlamp level control between all positions. The voltage should change with each position.
  17. If the voltage does not change, test or replace the S30 Headlamp Switch.
  18. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate headlamp assembly.
