BULB - A/C-HEAT CONTROL
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
CAUTION: Always use the correct bulb size and type for replacement. An incorrect bulb size or type may overheat and cause damage to the lamp, the socket or the lamp wiring.
NOTE: There may be minor variations in the locations of the bulb/bulb holder units on the back of the single zone A/C-heater controls as a result of various optional control units. However, the bulb types and service procedures are identical for each of these bulbs. The illumination provisions for the dual zone A/C-heater controls are NOT serviceable.
1. Align the bulb holder and bulb (2) with the keyed opening in the circuit board of the A/C-heater control (1).
2. Insert the bulb holder and bulb straight into the circuit board until the bulb holder is firmly seated.
3. Using a small thin-bladed screwdriver, rotate the bulb holder clockwise about 30 degrees on the circuit board to lock it into place.
4. Reinstall the center bezel onto the instrument panel. Instrument Panel Center Bezel - Installation .
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
