Headlight Washer Switch Test/Replacement

1. Remove the driver's dashboard undercover Driver's Dashboard Undercover Removal / Installation.

2. Disconnect the 6P connector (A) from the headlight washer switch (B).






3. 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.
