Pod - Rear Light Emitting Diode

POD - REAR LIGHT EMITTING DIODE





NOTE: The rear Light Emitting Diode (LED) dome lamp contains three LED units, each with its own dedicated printed circuit board and switch. The two outboard articulating eyeball-type LED reading lamp pod units with their integral lens-actuated switches and printed circuit boards are available for separate service replacement. However, if the fixed center LED unit, printed circuit board and push button switch is damaged or ineffective, the entire lamp unit must be replaced.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.

2. Remove the rear Light Emitting Diode (LED) dome lamp unit (4) from the headliner.

3. From the top of the lamp housing, disconnect the pod pigtail wire connector (3) from the fixed dome lamp printed circuit board in the center of the lamp.

4. Pry gently and evenly on one of the pod mounting stanchions (1) far enough to disengage the pivot pin on one side of the pod (2).

5. Pry gently and evenly on the mounting stanchion on the opposite side of the pod far enough to disengage the opposite pivot pin.

6. Lift the pod out of its receptacle within the rear dome lamp housing.
