Check for continuity between cavity 7 of cluster con­
nector B and a good ground. There should be no con­
tinuity. If OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair short
circuit as required.
(4) Check for continuity between cavity 7 of cluster
connector B and cavity 2 (black and tan wire) of
washer fluid level switch connector. There should be
continuity. If OK, replace lamp bulb. If not OK, re­
pair open circuit as required.
MALFUNCTION
INDICATOR
LAMP
The diagnosis found here addresses an inoperative
lamp condition. If the lamp comes on and stays on
with engine running, refer to Group 14 - Fuel System
for diagnosis. If no fuel or emission system problem
is found, the following procedure will help locate a
short or open in the lamp circuit.
(1) Disconnect battery negative cable. Unplug PCM
connector. Install a jumper wire from cavity 32 of
PCM connector (Fig. 21) to a good ground. Connect
battery negative cable. Turn ignition switch to ON.
Lamp should light. Remove jumper wire and lamp
should go OFF. If OK, refer to Powertrain Diagnostic
Procedures to check PCM. If not OK, go to next step.
(2) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable. Remove instrument cluster bezel and
cluster assembly. Install a jumper wire from cavity 6
of cluster connector B (black connector) to a good
ground. Connect battery negative cable. Turn ignition
switch to ON. Lamp should light. If OK, go to next
step. If not OK, replace faulty bulb.
(3) Turn ignition switch to OFF. Disconnect battery
negative cable. Unplug cluster connector b. Check for
continuity between cavity 6 of cluster connector B
and a good ground. There should be no continuity. If
OK, go to next step. If not OK, repair short circuit to
PCM as required.
