Move on to Step 11

 

11

 

Check that, with the ignition in the ON position, there is an earth signal at pin 5 of the left headlamp.

Move on to Step 4

 

Replace the left headlamp

   Op. 5540B81 LEFT GAS DISCHARGE LIGHT CLUSTER - R.R.

 

12

 

Check Pin 1 of the potentiometer connector

   See K002 HEADLAMP AGLINMENT REAR POTENTIOMETER

for the presence of a negative signal.

Move on to Step 14

 

Move on to Step 13

 

13

 

If there are faults, restore the continuity of the wiring between the headlamps and the rear potentiometer

Move on to Step 14

 

14

 

Turn the ignition to the ON position. Disconnect the connecting rod from the front sensor.

Connect a voltmeter between pin 11 of the 6-way connector for the left headlamp and an earth.

Check that the sensor voltage varies between 0.5 and 4.5 V when the moving axle is rotated manually.

Move on to Step 16

 

Move on to Step 15

 

15

 

If there are faults, restore the continuity of the wiring between the left headlamp and the front potentiometer
