SNOWPLOW HEADLAMP CHECK
With all electrical plugs connected, check the
operation of vehicle and snowplow headlamps.
Connecting and disconnecting the electrical plugs
should switch between the vehicle and snowplow
headlamps as follows:
• Electrical plugs DISCONNECTED—Vehicle
headlamps function normally.
• Electrical plugs CONNECTED—Vehicle headlamp
functions transfer to the snowplow headlamps. On
some Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) systems,
both the vehicle and snowplow headlamps will
function.
Aiming the Headlamps
• Aim the snowplow headlamps with the snowplow
mounted and raised in the transport position. See

Section for instructions.
• Aim the vehicle headlamps with the snowplow
removed from the vehicle.
