Scheme 5: Front Individual Map Light Test
  1. Turn the light switch OFF.
  2. Carefully pry off the lens (A) with a small screwdriver.
  3. Remove the four mounting screws.
  4. Disconnect the 3P connector (B) from the housing (C)
  5. Check for continuity between the terminals: There should be continuity between the No. 1 and No. 3 terminals with the switch ON. There should be continuity between the No. 1 and No. 2 terminals with the switch OFF.
  6. If the continuity is not as specified, check the bulb(s). If the bulb(s) are OK, replace the light. MAP LIGHT: 6.2 W
