REAR CARGO LAMP
DESCRIPTION
An optional dual-purpose cargo lamp (1) is removable
and rechargeable on some models. If equipped with
this option, there is flashlight (5) that can be removed.
When the flashlight is snapped out of its bezel, it can

batteries are getting low and need to be recharged by

OPERATION
Some models will be equipped with the optional
Removable/Rechargeable Cargo Lamp (1). This is a
flashlight (5) that is removed from the rear cargo lamp
with the simple push on the flashlight on the left side,
and then is pulled down to release it from the cargo
lamp. The flashlight is turned on by the momentary
contact switch (3). The flashlight uses Light Emitting
Diodes (LED’s) (2) that are not serviceable and if
inoperative, must be replaced with a new flashlight.
The rear cargo lamp has B+ battery power to it when
any of the doors or liftgate is opened, assuming that
the thumbwheel on the left switch stalk is in the on
position. The flashlight has two contacts that apply B+
battery power and ground when the ignition switch is
in the Run/Start position, regardless of the position of
the interior lamp thumbwheel.
