Headlamp Switch - Installation

INSTALLATION

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.





1. Position the headlamp switch (1) close enough to the switch mounting hole in the instrument panel (2) to reconnect the instrument panel wire harness connector to the connector receptacle on the back of the switch housing.
2. Position the switch in the center of the switch mounting hole of the instrument panel.
3. Using hand pressure, press the switch firmly and evenly into the mounting hole until it is fully seated. An indication that the switch is fully seated will be a light audible click as each of the three metal spring clips (two on top, one on bottom) spring into place behind the mounting hole.
4. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
