  1. Disconnect the connector from the No. 1 heater control (air inlet control switch).

  1. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Standard Resistance:
    Tester Connection
    Switch Condition
    Specified Condition
    3 (FRS) - 4 (REC)
    Air inlet control switch: FREE
    Below 1 Ω
    3 (FRS) - 4 (REC)
    Air inlet control switch: LOCK
    10 kΩ or higher
    1 (F/D) - 8 (ACID)
    Mode control dial: except Foot/DEF position and DEF position
    10 kΩ or higher
    1 (F/D) - 8 (ACID)
    Mode control dial: Foot/DEF position or DEF position
    Below 1 Ω
  1. Check that the indicator light comes on.

    1. Turn the No. 1 heater control (air inlet control switch) to LOCK.

    2. Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 2 and a negative (-) lead from the battery to terminal 4, and check that the indicator light comes on.

      OK:
      The indicator light comes on.
  1. Check that the illumination comes on.

    1. Connect a positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 7 and negative (-) to terminal 6, and check that the illumination comes on.
