Headlamp Leveling Switch - Description - Export

DESCRIPTION





The headlamp leveling switch is used only on vehicles manufactured for certain markets where the headlamp leveling system is required. The headlamp leveling switch is integral to the Accessory Switch Bank Module (ASBM) on the instrument panel center stack, just below the heater a/c controls and next to the hazard switch. The switch is marked with the numbers 0, 1, 2, and 3, which indicates each of the four switch detent positions. Each higher number represents a lower aiming position of the headlamp beam relative to the road surface.

The molded plastic ASBM housing encloses the switch mechanism and the leveling switch circuitry including the switch contacts and a series resistor configuration. The switch is connected to the vehicle electrical system through the instrument panel wire harness.

The headlamp leveling switch cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if ineffective or damaged, the entire ASBM unit must be replaced Instrument Cluster Switch Pod - Removal.
