      Check if other displays or indicators such as the A/C switch indicator come on.

      OK: 

      Other displays or indicators come on. 

    NG: GO TO  LIGHTING SYSTEM 

    OK: GO TO NEXT STEP 

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (RH R/B - RADIO RECEIVER) 
    1. Disconnect the radio receiver R16 connector.
    2. Measure the voltage according to the values in RH R/B - RADIO RECEIVER  .

      Standard voltage 

      RH R/B - RADIO RECEIVER

      Tester connection Condition Specified condition
      ILL+ (R16-2) - Body ground (1) Light control switch TAIL 10 to 14 V
      ILL+ (R16-10) - Body ground (2) Light control switch TAIL 10 to 14 V
