Master Switch Test (Sedan)
1.Remove the armrest from the driver's door panel
(see page 23-228).
Disconnect the 16P and 1P connectors from the
master switch.
Check for continuity between the terminals in each
switch position according to the tables
Driv€r's Switch:
The driver's switch is combined with the control unit so
you cannot isolate the switch to test it. Instead, run the
master switch input test procedures at terminals 83, 84,
85. BO and 87 on page 23-22A. lt the tests are normal,
the driver's switch must be faulty.
