SYMPTOM PROCEDURES
SIMPLIFIED WIRING SYSTEM (SWS)54B-273
INSPECTION PROCEDURE H-5: Headlamp and Taillamp: Headlamps do not illuminate when the
lighting switch is at "TAIL," and "PASSING" position, but illuminate at low-beam when the switch is at
"HEAD" position. At this position, the headlamps cannot be changed to high beam by operating the
dimmer switch.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of Diagnostic Tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the headlamps illuminate at low-beam regardless
of the lighting switch positions, the headlamp opera-
tion is in fail-safe mode.
