GENERAL INFORMATION
Each vehicle is equipped with lamps used for illumi-
nating and indicating purposes. A circuit must have a
good ground to be complete. Circuit ground occurs
when the lamp socket makes contact with the metal
body. On vehicles with plastic lamps, a wire between
the socket and the body makes the grounds.
When changing lamp bulbs, check the socket for
corrosion. If corrosion is present, clean contacts with a
wire brush and coat the inside of the socket with
Mopar
t Multi-purpose Grease or equivalent.
CAUTION: Do not touch the glass of halogen bulbs
with fingers or any possibly oily surface, reduced
bulb life will result.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
Begin electrical system failure diagnosis by testing
all related fuses and circuit breakers in the fuse block
and engine compartment. Also refer to Group 8W,
Wiring Diagrams for component location and circuit
information.

HEADLAMP SWITCH
Service procedures for the headlamp switch can be
found in Group 8E, Instrument Panel and Gauges.
More information can be found in Group 8W, Wiring
Diagrams.
HEADLAMP DIMMER SWITCH
The headlamp dimmer switch is incorporated into
the turn signal switch. Proper procedures can be found
in Group 8J, Turn Signal and Flashers. More informa-
tion can be found in Group 8W, Wiring Diagrams.
HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT
Headlamps can be aligned using the screen method
provided in this section. Alignment Tool C4466-A or
equivalent can also be used. Refer to instructions
provided with the tool for proper procedures. The
preferred headlamp alignment setting is 0 for the
left/right adjustment and 0 for the up/down ad-
justment.
HEADLAMP ALIGNMENT PREPARATION
(1) Verify headlamp dimmer switch and high beam
indicator operation.
(2) Inspect and correct damaged or defective compo-
nents that could interfere with proper headlamp align-
ment.
(3) Verify proper tire inflation.
(4) Clean headlamp lenses.
(5) Verify that luggage area is not heavily loaded.
(6) Fuel tank should be FULL. Add 2.94 kg (6.5 lbs.)
of weight over the fuel tank for each estimated gallon of
missing fuel.
HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT USING ALIGNMENT
SCREEN
ALIGNMENT SCREEN PREPARATION (FIG. 1)
(1) Position vehicle on a level surface perpendicular
to a flat wall 7.62 meters (25 ft) away from front of
headlamp lens.
(2) If necessary, tape a line on the floor 7.62 meters
(25 ft) away from and parallel to the wall.
(3) From the floor up 1.27 meters (5 ft), tape a line on
the wall at the centerline of the vehicle. Sight along the
centerline of the vehicle (from rear of vehicle forward)
to verify accuracy of the line placement.
(4) Rock vehicle side-to-side three times to allow
suspension to stabilize.
(5) Jounce front suspension three times by pushing
downward on front bumper and releasing.
(6) Measure the distance from the center of head-
lamp lens to the floor. Transfer measurement to the
alignment screen (with tape). Use this line for up/down
adjustment reference.
(7) Measure distance from the centerline of the ve-
hicle to the center of each headlamp being aligned.
Transfer measurements to screen (with tape) to each
side of vehicle centerline. Use these lines for left/right
adjustment reference.
HEADLAMP ADJUSTMENT (FIG. 2 OR 3)
A properly aimed low beam headlamp will project the
top edge of high intensity pattern on the alignment
screen from 50 mm (2 in.) above to 50 mm (2 in.) below
the headlamp centerline. The side-to-side outboard
edge of high intensity pattern should be from 50 mm (2
in.) left to 50mm (2 in.) right of headlamp centerline
(Fig. 1). The preferred headlamp alignment is 0
for the up/down adjustment and 0 for the
left/right adjustment. The high beams on a vehicle
with aero headlamps cannot be aligned. The high beam
pattern should be correct when the low beams are
aligned properly.
To adjust headlamp aim, rotate alignment screws to
achieve the specified high intensity pattern (Fig. 2 or
3).
FOG LAMP ALIGNMENT (FIG. 4)
Prepare a alignment screen. Refer to Alignment
Screen Preparation paragraph in this section. A prop-
erly aligned fog lamp will project a pattern on the
alignment screen 100 mm (4 in.) below the fog lamp
centerline and straight ahead.
