With a Test Lamp

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
NOTE: Only use the test lamp procedure on low impedance power and ground circuits.
  1. Remove the power feed (i.e. fuse, control module) from the suspect circuit.
  2. Disconnect the load.
  3. Connect one lead of the test lamp to one end of the circuit to be tested.
  4. Connect the other lead of the test lamp to battery positive voltage.
  5. Connect the other end of the circuit to ground.
  6. If the test lamp illuminates (full intensity), then the circuit has good continuity.
