Grounds Circuits Testing

I/P Splice Pack #1


Location: Taped to harness behind I/P cluster.


The systems grounded by I/P Splice Pack #1 are grounded redundantly with I/P Splice Pack #2 at ground point location D (I/P chassis ground). If one of the following systems is operating normally, the ground circuit is most likely good.


^ Perf/Norm switch


^ I/P dimmer


^ Cruise module


^ Headlamp switch


^ Cigar lighter element


Check for OPENS/SHORTS.


Repair as needed.


If this component is good go to the next item indicated on the "Complaint-Condition" chart.
