LAMPS/LIGHTING - INTERIOR
The interior lighting system for this vehicle includes incandescent lighting on two separate circuits: the dome/courtesy lamp circuit and the panel lamps dimmer circuit. The lamps on the dome/courtesy circuit include:
Cargo Lamp (5) - A cargo lamp is located in the headliner near the rear roof header and is controlled by both the courtesy lamp circuit and an independent lens-actuated switch to illuminate the rear cargo area of the vehicle. Courtesy Lamps (1) - Available courtesy lamps are located below both the right and left side of the instrument panel, and are controlled by the courtesy lamp circuit. Front Dome Lamp (2) - A standard front dome lamp including two bulbs is located in the headliner
between the sun visors near the windshield header. These lamps are controlled by both the courtesy lamp circuit and independent push button switches on the lamp housing adjacent to each bulb. Reading Lamps (2) - Available front seat driver side and passenger side reading lamps located in the optional mini overhead console in the headliner between the sun visors near the windshield header are controlled by both the courtesy lamp circuit and independent lens-actuated switches. Second Row Dome/Reading Lamps (4) - The second row seat dome/reading lamps are controlled by both the courtesy lamp circuit and independent lens-actuated switches. These lamps are integral to the grab handles located on the headliner above each rear door opening adjacent to each outboard second row seating position. Vanity Lamps (3) - An optional single-intensity vanity lamp is located above a covered mirror on both the right and left sun visors. These lamps are controlled by an integral vanity mirror cover-actuated switch on the courtesy lamp circuit.
Most controls on the instrument panel and elsewhere on the interior of the vehicle are illuminated by the panel lamps dimmer circuit for night visibility. All except the automatic transmission gear selector bezel lamp have miniature incandescent bulbs, Light-Emitting Diode (LED) units or a combination of the two lighting types that are soldered to internal circuit boards and are not serviceable.
The optional automatic transmission gear selector bezel lamp is located on the left side of the gear selector lever mechanism just beneath the bezel on the floor panel transmission tunnel. This lamp has a replaceable incandescent bulb.

Hard wired circuitry connects the interior lighting system components to the electrical system of the vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to several wire harnesses, which are routed throughout the vehicle and retained by many different methods. These circuits may be connected to each other, to the vehicle electrical
system and to the interior lighting components through the use of a combination of soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many different types of wire harness terminal connectors and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures, further details on wire harness routing and retention, as well as pin-out and location views for the various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - INTERIOR
The lamps of the interior lighting system can be divided into two general classifications based upon the circuit that controls their operation: The courtesy lamp circuit (which includes the courtesy lamp load shed circuits for each lamp as well as the convenience circuits for those lamps with independent switching), or the panel lamps dimmer circuit. Following are paragraphs that briefly describe the operation of each of these interior lighting circuits.
The lamps and the hard wired circuits between components related to the interior lighting system may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire harness routing and retention, connector pin-out information and location views for the various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
However, conventional diagnostic methods will not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the interior lighting system or the electronic controls or communication between modules and other devices that provide some features of the interior lighting system. The most reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose the interior lighting system or the electronic controls and communication related to interior lighting system operation requires the use of a diagnostic scan tool.

WARNING: To avoid serious or fatal injury on vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) before attempting any steering wheel, steering column, airbag, Occupant Classification System (OCS), seat belt tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel component diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two minutes for the system capacitor to discharge before performing further diagnosis or service. This is the only sure way to disable the SRS. Failure to take the proper precautions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
NOTE: When diagnosing the interior lighting circuits, remember that high generator output can burn out bulbs rapidly and repeatedly; and, that dim or flickering bulbs can be caused by low generator output or poor battery condition. If one of these symptoms is a problem on the vehicle, be certain to diagnose the battery and charging system, then repair as necessary.
NOTE: A good ground is necessary for proper lighting operation. If a lighting problem is being diagnosed that involves multiple symptoms, systems, or components, the problem can often be traced to a loose, corroded, or open ground.
