Test

1. Seat Heater Switch - Test









1. Check for continuity between the terminals in each switch position according to the table.

NOTE:
* Make sure the correct test lead (+or -) is placed on the terminal.
* When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
* Be aware of this characteristic; a diode is one that conducts fully in one direction (forward) and not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).

2. If the continuity is not as specified, replace the switch.
