Pilot Lamp

  2. If there is no continuity, there is an open circuit in the wiring harness between pilot lamp and control unit. If there is continuity, check bulb. If defective, replace. If bulb is okay, circuit board or control unit is defective.
  3. If lamp lights in step  1, turn on the main switch. If pilot lamp does not light, control unit is defective. If lamp lights, circuits are okay.
