Panel dimmer, rotating dimmer switch regulates density of the instrument panel illumination. There are nine detentes (steps) of density. Detent
1 is full brightness and each detent thereafter is lower. Testing the dimmer switch using the continuity test, the resistance value is measured for
each detent. Detents 3 through 8 are measured in equal graduations, up or down and referred to as linear. Example: if detent 3 was 5 ohms and
detent 4 was 7 ohms detent 5 should be 9 ohms.
Hazard Warning System
The hazard warning system is actuated by a push button located on the top of the steering column between the steering wheel and the instrument
panel. The hazard switch is identified with a double triangle on top of the button. Push and release the button to turn the hazard function ON or
OFF. The button will move out from the steering column in the ON position and will remain in toward the column in the OFF position.
