Operation

A reading lamp for the co-driver is provided in the roof console at the inner rear-view mirror. The lamps are of spotlight type and can be switched on and off by means of a switch at each lamp.

The supply is taken from fuse 3 and is wired through lamp 226 to lamps 225.

Fault-tracing hints

1. Check fuse 3 and check that the supply to it is live.
2. Check the switch on each of the lamps.
