Accessory Power Socket: Test/Replacement

Remove the center console (see CENTER CONSOLE REMOVAL/INSTALLATION ).
Disconnect the 2P connector.
Inspect the connector terminals to be sure they are all making good contact.
- If the terminals are bent, loose or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
- If the terminals look OK, go to step 4.
