GENERAL INFORMATION

Each vehicle is equipped with various lamp assem-blies. A good ground is necessary for proper lightingoperation. Grounding is provided by the lamp socketwhen it comes in contact with the metal body, orthrough a separate ground wire.

When changing lamp bulbs check the socket forcorrosion. I f corrosion is present, clean it with a wirebrush and coat the inside of the socket lightly withMopar Multi-Purpose Grease or equivalent.

Aero headlamps use a replaceable bulb that ismounted in a molded plastic lens.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURESWhen a vehicle experiences problems with the

headlamp system, verify the condition of the battery

connections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wireconnectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch andheadlamp switch. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-grams for component locations and circuit informa-tion.

Always begin any diagnosis by testing all of the

fuses and circuit breakers in the system. Refer toGroup 8W, Wiring Diagrams.Conventional and halogen headlamps are inter-

changeable. I t is recommended that they not be in-termixed on a given vehicle.

MULTI-FUNCTIONSWITCHTESTINGPROCEDURES The multi-function switch contains electrical cir-

cuitry for: Headlamp Dimmer Switch. Passing Lights. Turn Signals. Hazard Warning. Windshield Wiper. Pulse Wiper. Windshield Washer.

This integrated switch is mounted to the left handside of the steering column. Should any function of the switch fail, the entire switch must be replaced.

The multi-function switch also serves as a fog lamplock-out circuit. The circuit to the fog lamp switch iscompleted only when the dimmer switch is in the lowbeam position.

SWITCH TEST (1) Disconnect battery negative cable.

(2) Remove screws along bottom edge of steeringcolumn (Fig. 1).

(3) Pull knee blocker down to disengage slide tabsand remove.

(4) Remove tilt lever.(5) Remove upper and lower column shrouds to

gain access to the switch connector (Fig. 2).

(6) Remove lower fixed column shroud.(7) Loosen steering column upper bracket nuts. Donot remove nuts.

(8) Move upper fixed column shroud to gain accessto rear of multi-function switch.

(9) Remove switch connector (Fig. 3 and 4).

HEADLAMP ALIGNMENTHeadlamps can be aligned using the screen method

provided in this section. Alignment Tool C4466-A orequivalent can also be used. Refer to instructionsprovided with the tool for proper procedures. Thepreferred headlamp alignment setting is 0 forthe left/right adjustment and 1 down for theup/down adjustment.

HEADLAMP ALIGNMENTPREPARATION(1) Verify headlamp dimmer switch and high beam

indicator operation.

(2) Correct defective components that could hinderproper headlamp alignment.

(3) Verify proper tire inflation.(4) Clean headlamp lenses.(5) Verify that luggage area is not heavily loaded.(6) Fuel tank should be F UL L. Add 2.94 kg (6.5

lbs.) of weight over the fuel tank for each estimatedgallon of missing fuel.

HEADLAMP/FOGLAMP ADJUSTMENT USINGALIGNMENTSCREEN

ALIGNMENT SCREEN PREPARATION (FIG. 1)(1) Position vehicle on a level surface perpendicu-

lar to a flat wall 7.62 meters (25 ft) away from frontof headlamp lens.

(2) I f necessary, tape a line on the floor 7.62meters (25 ft) away from and parallel to the wall.

(3) Measure from the floor up 1.27 meters (5 ft)and tape a line on the wall at the centerline of thevehicle. Sight along the centerline of the vehicle(from rear of vehicle forward) to verify accuracy of the line placement.

(4) Rock vehicle side-to-side three times to allowsuspension to stabilize.

(5) J ounce front suspension three times by pushingdownward on front bumper and releasing.

(6) Measure the distance from the center of head-lamp lens to the floor. Transfer measurement to thealignment screen (with tape). Use this line for up/down adjustment reference.

(7) Measure distance from the centerline of the ve-hicle to the center of each headlamp being aligned. Transfer measurements to screen (with tape) to eachside of vehicle centerline. Use these l ines for left/right adjustment reference.

HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 2 OR 3)A properly aimed low beam headlamp will project

the top edge of high intensity pattern on the align-ment screen from 50 mm (2 in.) above to 50 mm (2in.) below the headlamp centerline. The side-to-sideoutboard edge of high intensity pattern should befrom 50 mm (2 in.) left to 50 mm (2 in.) right of headlamp centerline (F ig. 1). The preferred head-lamp alignment is 0 for the up/down adjust-ment and 1 down for the left/right adjustment. The high beams on a vehicle with aero headlampscannot be aligned. The high beam pattern should becorrect when the low beams are aligned properly.

To adjust headlamp aim, rotate alignment screwsto achieve the specified high intensity pattern (Fig. 2or 3).

FOG LAMP ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 4)Prepare an alignment screen. Refer to Alignment

Screen P reparation paragraph in this section. A prop-erly aligned fog lamp will project a pattern on thealignment screen 100 mm (4 in.) below the fog lampcenterline and straight ahead.
