Dimmer Switch: Testing and Inspection





Inspection

1. Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2. Remove the lower side crash pad switch assembly (A) by using the trim remover tool.




3. Disconnect the rheostat switch connector (A).




4. Check for intensity of new rheostat switch. If the light intensity of the lamps changes smoothly without any flickering when the rheostat is turned, it can be assumed that the rheostat is normal.
