3. Use a multimeter set to 20 volts DC and place alligator clips on the multimeter probes. Connect the red (+) probe
to the light switch terminal where the blue wire (w03) is connected (Figure 11-30, Page 11-34).

4. Connect the black (–) probe of the multimeter to the negative (–) post of the battery.
5. With the light switch in the OFF position, the reading should indicate 0 volts. With the light in the ON position, the
reading should indicate between 11 and 12.5 volts. If the there is no voltage reading, check the continuity of
the 10-gauge red wire (w126) from the fuse block to the starter solenoid. Check the continuity of the 14-gauge
yellow wire (w07) and the 14-gauge blue wire (w113) from the light switch to the fuse block. Check the fuse.
See Test Procedure 2 – Fuse on page 11-11. If the wires and fuse show continuity and the readings are still
incorrect, replace the switch. See Light Switch Removal on page 13-11.
TEST PROCEDURE 34 – Voltage at Headlight Socket
See General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
NOTE: Keep the battery connected during this test procedure.
1. Disable the vehicle. See Disabling the Vehicle on page 1-3.
2. Inspect the wires at the light bulb socket. Make sure the wires are securely fastened to the contacts inside the
socket and that wires are oriented correctly - black to black and blue to blue.
3. Remove the wire harness from the headlight bulb (Figure 11-31, Page 11-35).
4. Use a multimeter set to 20 volts DC and place the black (–) probe into the black wire terminal of the wire harness.
Place the red (+) probe into the blue wire terminal.
5. Pull the light switch to the ON position. If the multimeter indicates approximately 12 volts, replace the headlight
bulb.
