[Vwdiesel] Testing leds on instrument pad

[Milt Kaplan]

I have an 81 rabbit  pickup. The instrument pad has resistors connected to its leds. To test: Can apply 12 volts (or even 9v from a small battery to the appropriate printed circuit points on the connector? Trace the led in question back to the connector foil. Leds last long time unusual for them to go bad. Bad resistor could damage the led as well. It seems that most of the leds on my pad connect thru a ground line/switch to trigger them.
