Interior Trim - Electroluminescent Lighting Eliminated

Bulletin: 85-8-9

Date: Apr 1985

Ref. No..: 85-096-8
SUBJECT: ELECTROLUMINESCENT LIGHTING ON INSTRUMENT TRIM PANEL ABOVE GLOVE BOX

MODELS AFFECTED: 1985 ELECTRA PARK AVENUE, LESABRE COLLECTORS EDITION


A recent change has been implemented in production eliminating the electroluminescent lighting feature above the Park Avenue glove box. If you receive a comment of reflection in windshield from the right side passenger area, disconnect the two wires running to the panel and tape the wires back. The grey jumper wire in the same connector must remain connected to complete the circuit for the across instrument panel lower flood light.

Product information literature also incorrectly indicates the electroluminescent feature on the 1985 LeSabre Collectors Edition. This feature is not available on the Collectors Edition.
