Still no indicator light - out of ideas
So I swapped out the hi-lo beam relay but still no high beam indicator light on dash.
To recap, I had no hi-beams or hi-beam indicator, but did have flash to pass.
Troubleshooting to date:
- installed NOS multi-function switch - no change
- installed NOS auto-dimmer/auto-delay switch - high beams work, no indicator light
- installed new indicator bulb - no change
- checked continuity of indicator lamp circuit per the ground check circuit from the EVTM - good continuity
- installed new hi-lo beam relay - no change
The only two headlight related items left to replace, as far as I can tell, are the headlight switch and the auto-lamp dual coil relay. From the EVTM circuit diagrams, I can't see how they could impact just the indicator light, so I doubt either of these is the issue.
I'm starting to wonder if this a problem with the instrument panel. There are other IP warning lights not working, based on failure to come on during start. Per the owner's manual, all the warning lights should come on at start-up to verify the bulb is functioning. I'm don't know why a given light would fail to come on for the test when there is a known good bulb and good continuity.
I am told the car won't pass the VA safety inspection if the indicator light doesn't come on with the hi-beams. So I essentially can't drive the car until this seemingly small issue is fixed.
Anyone out there have any ideas?
