Exterior and interior lamp operation

Operate the combination lamp switch to check that all lamps are functioning properly.

If the fuses and bulbs are all OK, we recommend you to have your vehicle checked and repaired.

Run the engine to check the operation of all meters, gauges, and indicator/warning lamps.
