Combination Switch: Description and Operation

Combination Switch And Illuminator Controller:

The combination switch, located on the steering column, consists of the hazard switch and two levers.

The first lever is the light/dimmer/turn signal switch located on the left side of the steering column.

The second lever is the windshield wiper/washer switch and cruise control mode switch (if equipped) located on the right side of the steering column.

A twist type knob on the end of the light/dimmer/turn signal switch controls the operation of the parking lamps and headlamps.

When either the parking lamps or headlamps are activated, the taillamps, all side marker lamps and license plate lamps also illuminate. When either the parking lamps or headlamps are activated, the instrument panel cluster assembly, heater control unit, radio, cigar lighter, ashtray and the manual selector illumination lamps also illuminate.

Moving the light/dimmer/turn signal switch (combination lever) forward and rearward controls the operation of the dimmer switch while moving the lever up and down controls the turn signals.
