TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LAMPS
(1) Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove left
instrument cluster bezel and main cluster assembly.
Probe cavity 20 of cluster connector. Check for conti-
nuity to a good ground. There should be continuity. If
OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair open circuit to
ground.
(2) Connect battery negative cable. Install a
jumper wire from cavity 18 (left indicator) or cavity 7
(right indicator) of cluster connector to a 12-volt bat-
tery feed. Lamp should light. If OK, continue to next
step. If not OK, replace bulb.
(3) Disconnect battery negative cable. Check for
continuity between cavity 18 (left indicator) or cavity
7 (right indicator) of cluster connector and cavity H
(left front turn signal) or cavity J (right front turn
signal) of steering column wiring connector. There
should be continuity. If OK, refer to Group 8J - Turn
Signal and Hazard Warning Systems for further di-
agnosis. If not OK, repair open circuit as required.
UPSHIFT INDICATOR LAMP
(1) Disconnect battery negative cable. Unplug PCM
connector. Connect battery negative cable. Turn igni-
tion switch to ON. Install a jumper wire from cavity
54 of PCM connector (Fig. 5) to a good ground. Lamp
should light. Remove jumper from ground. Lamp
should go off. If OK, refer to Powertrain Diagnostic
Procedures manual to diagnose PCM. If not OK, turn
ignition switch to OFF and go to next step.
(2) Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove left
instrument cluster bezel and main cluster assembly.
Install a jumper wire from cavity 5 of cluster connec-
tor to a good ground. Connect battery negative cable.
Turn ignition switch to ON. Lamp should light. If
OK, go to next step. If not OK, replace bulb.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable. Unplug cluster connector. Check for
continuity between cavity 5 of cluster connector and
a good ground. There should be no continuity. If OK,
go to next step. If not OK, repair short circuit as re-
quired.(4) Check for continuity between cavity 5 of cluster
connector and cavity 54 of PCM connector. There
should be continuity. If not OK, repair open circuit as
required.
CLUSTER ILLUMINATION LAMPS
(1) Check fuse 10 in fuseblock module. If OK, go to
next step. If not OK, replace fuse.
(2) Turn park lamps on at headlamp switch. Rotate
panel dimmer switch thumb-wheel to HI position,
just before interior lamps detent. Check for battery
voltage at fuse 10 in fuseblock module. Rotate panel
dimmer thumb-wheel towards LO position while ob-
serving test voltmeter. Reading should go from bat-
tery voltage to zero volts. If OK, go to next step. If
not OK, repair open circuit to headlamp switch or re-
fer to Group 8L - Lamps to diagnose headlamp
switch.
(3) Disconnect battery negative cable. Remove left
or center instrument cluster bezel and main or gauge
package cluster assembly. Unplug cluster connector.
Connect battery negative cable. Turn park lamps on
at headlamp switch. Rotate panel dimmer thumb-
wheel to HI position, just before interior lamps de-
tent. Check for battery voltage at cavity 21 of main
cluster connector, or cavity 7 of gauge package clus-
ter connector. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, re-
pair open circuit to fuse as required.
(4) Turn park lamps off. Disconnect battery nega-
tive cable. Remove fuse 10 from fuseblock module.
Probe cavity 21 of main cluster connector, or cavity 7
of gauge package cluster connector. Check for conti-
nuity to a good ground. There should be no continu-
ity. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair short
circuit as required.
(5) Probe cavity 20 of main cluster connector, or
cavities 1 and 13 of gauge package cluster connector.
Check for continuity to ground. There should be con-
tinuity. If not OK, repair open circuit as required.
