Uplander - Lamp Control Modual removal
Hi, I believe that I've tracked down the source of my electrical problems to a bad Instrument panel illumination dimmer modual. How do you remove that modual from the panel? is it just on clips? pry out??
For the benefit of others here are the symptoms... Blown #17 body fuse (back-up lights/ back -up alarm/and CHMSL also lost the instrument panel back illumination. All this is fed thru fuse #17. I believe that I have tracked the problem down to a short in the dimmer switch. Now I just have to remove it without damaging the instrument panel facing.
Thanks

Lamp control modual removal - how to
OK, guys... I figured it out. So for the benefit of others.... everything pops off with spring clips. First pop off the silver trim strip below the light modual, use a puddy knife. Next pop off the light mod, one clip at the lower edge... it all comes free including the vent grill.
