How can I access the illumination module with these 2 black plugs, supposedly in the instrument panel left of the steering wheel?
Also, I don't see in the shop manual a pin on the 21-pin plug for a reverse signal. I know this manual set is fraught with insufficient instruction, but this omission is alarming.
Thanks, Ron
While you're in there you might want to put a couple of inline fuses between the 2 large power wires. The post I made shows how to disassemble the dash step by step wit pictures. I put in two in line fuses for fire prevention.

You don't have to do this, it's just a suggestion.
