Pod - Front Light Emitting Diode






POD - FRONT LIGHT EMITTING DIODE





NOTE: The overhead console on vehicles with the Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting package contains three LED units, each with its own dedicated printed circuit board. The two outboard articulating eyeball-type LED reading lamp pod units with their integral lens-actuated switches and printed circuit boards are available for separate service replacement. However, if the fixed center LED unit or printed circuit board is damaged or ineffective, the entire overhead console housing unit must be replaced.
1. Position the Light Emitting Diode (LED) pod (3) into its receptacle within the overhead console housing (4).

2. Pry gently and evenly on one of the pod mounting stanchions (1) far enough to engage the pivot pin on one side of the pod.

3. Pry gently and evenly on the mounting stanchion on the opposite side of the pod far enough to engage the opposite pivot pin.

4. Reconnect the pod pigtail wire connector (2) to the fixed dome lamp printed circuit board in the center of the overhead console housing.

5. Reinstall the overhead console unit into the headliner.

6. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
