Trunk Lamp: Service and Repair

Trunk Light Test/Replacement

1. Open the trunk lid.

2. Carefully pry out the trunk light (A).









3. Disconnect the 2P connector (B) from the trunk light.

4. Check for continuity between terminals No. 1 (+) and No. 2 (-). There should be continuity. If there is no continuity, check the bulb (C). If the bulb is OK; replace the trunk light assembly.

NOTE:

- Make sure the correct test lead (+ or -) is placed on the terminal.
- When checking for continuity across the diode, use the diode setting () on the digital volt/ohm meter to check the diode bias.
- Note this important operating characteristic; diode bias causes a diode to fully conduct electricity in one direction (forward), while not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).

5. Install the light in the reverse order of removal.
