LAMP BAR
DESCRIPTION
The lamp bar is used to better illuminate the driv-
ers field of vision under certain driving conditions. It
consists of a cover, two or four lamp assemblies
(depending upon which market), and a wiring har-
ness. These components are mounted to a reinforce-
ment, then sealed and secured to the roof panel.
Lamp bar illumination is controlled by a manually
operated momentary rocker switch, mounted to the
instrument panel. The lamps are adjustable in the
vertical position only.
OPERATION
Battery and ignition voltage are supplied to the
lamp bar switch assembly. When the switch is in the
on position the internal relay contacts close, complet-
ing the circuit through the lamp bar bulbs, to
ground. The lamp bar assembly is grounded to the
chassis. The hard wired circuits of the lamp bar may
be diagnosed and tested using conventional methods
and procedures.

OVERHEAD CONSOLE
DESCRIPTION
An overhead console is standard factory-installed
equipment on this model. The available overheadconsoles can include the Compass Mini-Trip Com-
puter with universal transmitter (Fig. 2), without the
universal transmitter (Fig. 1), or base console with
only two reading and courtesy lamps (Fig. 3). All
overhead consoles are equipped with two reading and
courtesy lamps. On vehicles equipped with a power

sunroof, the sunroof switch is located between the
two reading and courtesy lamps. The overhead con-
sole is mounted with one screw and two snap clips to
a molded plastic retainer bracket located above the
headliner.
OPERATION
Refer to the vehicle Owner's Manual for specific
operation of each overhead console and its systems.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
STANDARD PROCEDURE - CMTC LAMP
REPLACEMENT
(1) Open hood, disconnect and isolate the negative
battery cable.
(2) Remove overhead console (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/OVERHEAD CONSOLE - REMOVAL).
(3) Using a flat blade screwdriver twist out the
lamp socket.
(4) Replace lamp(s) as necessary.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COURTESY LAMP
REPLACEMENT
(1) Open hood, disconnect and isolate the negative
battery cable.
(2) Remove the overhead console from the head-
liner (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/OVERHEAD CON-
SOLE - REMOVAL).
(3) Remove the lamp and socket assembly from the
overhead console.
(4) Remove the lamp bulb by pulling it straight
out of its socket.
STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
CALIBRATION
CAUTION: Do not place any external magnets, such
as magnetic roof mount antennas, in the vicinity of
the compass. Do not use magnetic tools when ser-
vicing the overhead console.The electronic compass unit features a self-cali-
brating design, which simplifies the calibration pro-
cedure. This feature automatically updates the
compass calibration while the vehicle is being driven.
This allows the compass unit to compensate for small
changes in the residual magnetism that the vehicle
may acquire during normal use. If the compass read-
ings appear to be erratic or out of calibration, per-
form the following calibration procedure. Also, new
service replacement Compass Mini-Trip Computer
(CMTC) modules must have their compass calibrated
using this procedure. Do not attempt to calibrate the
compass near large metal objects such as other vehi-
cles, large buildings, or bridges; or, near overhead or
underground power lines.
NOTE: Whenever the compass is calibrated manu-
ally, the variance number must also be reset. Refer
to Compass Variation Adjustment in this group.
Calibrate the compass manually as follows:
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position. If
the compass/thermometer data is not currently being
displayed, momentarily depress and release the C/T
push button to reach the compass/thermometer dis-
play.
(2) Depress the Reset push button and hold the
button down until ªCALº appears in the display. This
takes about ten seconds, and appears about five sec-
onds after ªVARIANCE = XXº is displayed.
(3) Release the Reset push button.
(4) Drive the vehicle on a level surface, away from
large metal objects and power lines, through three or
more complete circles at between five and eight kilo-
meters-per-hour (three and five miles-per-hour) in
not less than 48 seconds. The ªCALº message will
disappear from the display to indicate that the com-
pass is now calibrated.
NOTE: If the ªCALº message remains in the display,
either there is excessive magnetism near the com-
pass, or the unit is faulty. Repeat the calibration
procedure one more time.
NOTE: If the wrong direction is still indicated in the
compass display, the area selected for calibration
may be too close to a strong magnetic field. Repeat
the calibration procedure in another location.STANDARD PROCEDURE - COMPASS
DEMAGNETIZING
A degaussing tool (Special Tool 6029) is used to
demagnetize, or degauss, the overhead console for-
ward mounting screw and the roof panel above the
overhead console. Equivalent units must be rated as
