Maintenance Reminder Unit Input Test
1.With the ignition switch OFF, disconnect the 5-P
connector from the reminder unit,
Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be
sufe they are all making good contact.
a lJ the terminals are bent, loose orcorroded, repair
them as necessary, and recheck the svstem.
a It the terminals look OK, make the following in-
Put tests at the connecto..- lf a test indicates a problem, tind and correct
the cause, then recheck the system.- It allthe input tests prove OK, the reminder unit
must be taulty; replace it.

sit in the driver's seat.
a Load the trunk with the items you usually carry (if you
usually pull a trailer, attach it to the carl.
a Push down on the tront and rear bumDers several
times to make sure the car is sitting normally.
a When installing a new headlight assembly, tighten the
four mounting bolts so that.the indicator in the verti-
cal gauge comes to the "O" mark.
1. Open the hood.
2. Check that both the horizontal and vertical gauge
read " O" .
. lf the gauges rcad "O", check headlight aiming
with the aiming charts on page 23-163. (lf aim-
ing isn't correct, refer to the trame repair chart
in section 20.)
a lf one o. both gauges don't read "O". go to step
23-162
3. Turn the low beams on. lJ necessary, align the ver-
tical indicator with its "O" mark by turning the ver-
tical adiuster with a Phillips screwdriver, and check
aiming with the chart on page 23-163.
lf necessary, align the horizontal indicator with its"0" mark by turning the horizontal adjuster with a
Phillips screwdriver, and check aiming with the chart
on page 23-163.

5.Recheck that the vertical indicator bubble is aligned
with "o" 1 1.
lf necsssary, adjust as described in step 3.
Turn the high beams on and check aiming with the
