Headlight Switch
The headlight switch is located on the operator side of
the console arm (Fig. 28). This two (2) position rocker
switch allows the headlights to be turned on and off.
Testing
1. Make sure ignition switch is OFF. Remove key from
ignition switch.
2. Disassemble console arm to gain access to head-
light switch (see Console Arm Disassembly in the Ser-
vice and Repairs section of Chapter 7 -- Chassis).
3. Disconnect harness electrical connector from the
switch.
4. With the use of a multimeter (ohms setting), the
switch functions may be tested to determine whether
continuity exists between the various terminals for each
switch position. The switch terminals are marked as
shown in Figure 29. The circuitry of the s witch is shown
in the chart below. Verify continuity between switch ter-
minals. Replace headlight switch if testing identifies a
faulty switch.

5. If headlight switchtests correctly and circuit problem
still exists, check wire harness (see Electrical Schemat-
ics and Wire Harness Drawings in Chapter 9 -- Foldout
Drawings).
6. After testing is completed, connect wire harness
connector to the headlight switch.
7. Assemble console arm (see Console Arm Assembly
in the Service and Repairssection of Chapter 7 -- C has-
