MULTIPLE/INDIVIDUAL GAUGES INOPERATIVE
Test speedometer, tachometer and other gauges for
malfunction:
(1) Remove the cluster. Refer to Cluster Removal
and Installation.
(2) Check for ignition voltage at Pin 15 of the clus-
ter wire harness connector (Fig. 5). Check for battery
voltage at Pin 21 of the connector. If no voltage,
repair as necessary.
(3) Check Pin 10 of the connector for continuity to
ground. If no ground, repair as necessary.
(4) If the voltage and ground are OK, and the pins
or the connectors are not distorted, replace the
instrument cluster.
(5) Install cluster. Refer to Instrument Cluster
Removal and Installation in this section.

(3) Replace bulb.
INSTALLATION
For installation reverse the above procedures.
When installing the retainer ensure that the forward
tabs are inserted properly into the slots in the instru-
ment panel.
CIGAR LIGHTER / POWER OUTLET ASSEMBLY
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable (Fig. 6).
(2) Look inside and note position of the retaining
bosses (Fig. 8).
(3) Using external snap ring pliers with 90 degree
tips. Insert pliers with tips against bosses and

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SYSTEM
For proper operation of the Rear Window Defogger
system refer to the Owner's Manual.
The system consists of a rear glass with two verti-
cal bus bars and a series of electrically connected
grid lines fired on the inside surface (Fig. 1). A con-
trol switch and a timing circuit are combined into a
single assembly.
Circuit protection is provided by a cartridge fuse
located in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) for
the heated grid circuit, and by a fuse in the fuse
block for the control circuit.
When the switch is turned to the ON position, cur-
rent is directed to the rear defogger grid lines. The
heated grid lines heat the rear glass to clear the sur-
face of fog or frost.CAUTION: Grid lines can be damaged or scraped
off with sharp instruments. Care should be taken in
cleaning glass or removing foreign materials,
decals or stickers. Normal glass cleaning solvents
or hot water used with rags or toweling is recom-
mended.
REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER SWITCH
The rear window defogger switch is a control
switch and timing circuit integrated into a single
panel mounted assembly (Fig. 2). Actuating the
switch energizes the circuit which allows current to
flow through the grid lines. Upon initial actuation for
approximately eight to ten minutes, or until either
the switch or ignition is turned off. An indicating
lamp illuminates a Light Emitting Diode (LED)
inlaid in the control switch.
