SPOT LAMP ASSEMBLY - POLICE
DESCRIPTION
This vehicle may be equipped with up to two spot
lamp assemblies attached to the A-Pillars. The spot
lamp assembly switch is located on the handle just
above the rotating handle grip.
Each spot lamp assembly contains a 100 watt halogen
bulb. The spot lamp assemblies are fused individually
and powered hot at all times. There are three fuses in
the Power Distribution Center (PDC) that control the
spot lamp assemblies:
The parts available for service are:
•
Complete spot lamp assembly.
•
H3 100 watt halogen bulb.
•
Inside control handle w/switch.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
SPOT LAMP ASSEMBLY - POLICE
IF SPOT LAMP DOES NOT LIGHT
1. If both spot lamps are inoperative, check spot lamp master fuse. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for fuse locations. If
fuse is OK, refer to Step 4. If fuse is damaged or inoperative, replace as necessary.
2. If the left spot lamp is inoperative, check fuse. If fuse is OK, refer to Step 4. If fuse is damaged or inoperative,
replace as necessary. If fuse blows again, find short to ground. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for circuit information.
3. If the right spot lamp is inoperative, check fuse. If fuse is OK, refer to Step 4. If fuse is damaged or inoperative,
replace as necessary. If fuse blows again, find short to ground. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for circuit information.
4. Check for B+ power at the spot lamp bulb with switch turned ON (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING
- EXTERIOR/SPOT LAMP - REMOVAL). If there is B+ power at the spot lamp bulb connector, replace bulb. If
there is not B+ power present, refer to Step 5.
5. If there is not B+ power present at the spot lamp with the switch turned on, check circuit for an open. Possibly
the connector in the A-pillar. Refer to Wiring Diagrams for circuit information.

6. If there is B+ power at the spot lamp connector, and no B+ power at the spot lamp bulb, then the switch is
damaged or inoperative within the spot lamp assembly and the entire unit must be replaced. (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/SPOT LAMP - REMOVAL).
7. If lamp still does not light, remove the handle (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/SPOT
LAMP - REMOVAL), and check the contact on the shaft end of the head assembly into the handle to make sure
the contact is not damaged.
IF SPOT LAMP IS HARD TO TURN
1. Check that the head housing clamping screw creates just enough drag to hold the spot lamp head in position in
windy conditions. Extreme drag will require more force on the handle to move the spot lamp head and cause
damage.
REMOVAL
CAUTION: Make sure that the master spot lamp
feed or either the left or right spot lamp feed are
removed from the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
before performing service on the spot lamps.
1. Remove the fuse cover and pull the fuse, depend-
ing on which spot lamp is being serviced.
2. Raise the spot lamp from the stowed to the oper-
ating position.
3. Using a trim stick or equivalent, gently pry out on
the A-pillar trim to release it. This will allow access
to the spot lamp electrical connector.
4. Remove the instrument panel end cap.
5. Disconnect the spot lamp electrical connector
(located behind the instrument panel end-cap).
6. Loosen, but do not remove the bolt (1) retaining
the handle to the outer tube.
NOTE: Do not remove the bolt all the way.
7. Using a plastic tipped hammer, gently tap the head
of the handle retaining bolt and the opposing
wedge nut.
