  Q: How to Service the Headlight Switch on the Left Multifunction Control on Jeep Patriot?

  A:

  Service the left multifunction switch by turning off the vehicle's SRS system by removing and isolating the vehicle's battery negative cable and letting the system capacitor release after two minutes. To start, take the upper and lower shrouds away from the steering column. After that, separate the instrument panel wire harness connector from the back of the left multifunction switch. Unscrew the screw holding the left multifunction switch to its place on the mounting bracket on the front left of the Clock Spring. Twist the switch to the left to release the slide tabs from their place on the mounting bracket. At last, take apart the jumper wire harness connector from the interior end of the left multifunction switch and remove the switch from the Clock Spring.

  Q: How to Install the Headlight Switch on the Left Multifunction Unit on Jeep Patriot?

  A:

  Before installing the left multifunction switch, disconnect the negative Battery Cable, disengage the SRS and allow the system capacitor two minutes to drain. Bring the left multi-function switch near the left side bracket and fit the jumper wire harness connector into the switch housing. Match the tabs on the switch housing with the channel formations on the Clock Spring bracket, then seat the switch fully within the bracket. Place screw 2 through the mounting tab on the left multi-function switch and tighten it to 1 Nm (10 in. lbs.). Secure the other end of the instrument wire harness to the switch on the back of the housing. Next, place the steering column shrouds back in place on top and beneath the column. Next, hook up the battery negative cable once again.
