Without Moonroof

1.
Check the ambient light by connecting battery power to terminal No. 7 and ground to terminal No. 6. The ambient light should come on.

NOTE:
When an LED is located between terminals, check if the LED illuminates by connecting power and ground to the LED.
Note this important operating characteristic; diode bias causes a diode to fully conduct electricity in one direction (forward), while not at all in the opposite direction (reverse).

2.
If the ambient light does not come on, the LED is faulty; replace the ambient light.
