Headlamp Switch: Service and Repair

INSTALLATION
WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supplemental restraint system before attempting
any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect
and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further
diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the supplemental restraint system. Failure to take the proper precautions could result
in accidental airbag deployment.
1. Position the headlamp switch (2) to the back of the cluster bezel (1).
2. Install and tighten the three screws (3) that secure the headlamp switch to the cluster bezel. Tighten the screws to 2 Nm (17 in. lbs.).
3. Position the cluster bezel close enough to the instrument panel to reconnect the wire harness connector to the back of the headlamp switch.
4. Reinstall the cluster bezel onto the instrument panel.
5. Reconnect the battery negative cable.
