Lights Dome lamps (if equipped) The front dome lamp is located overhead between the driver and passenger seats. The dome lamp will stay on if the panel dimmer control is moved to the passenger side position. When the control is in the middle position, the lamp will only come on when a door is opened. If the control is moved to the driver's side position, the lamp will not come on at all. The dome lamp will illuminate whenever a front door is opened. If either front door has been opened from the outside, the lamp will remain on for 20 seconds after the door is shut. If any other door has been opened from the inside, the lamp will shut off immediately after the door is closed. Cargo lamp The cargo lamp will stay on if the control is moved to the driver side position. When the control is in the middle position, the lamp will only come on when a door is opened. If the control is moved to the passenger's side position, the lamp will not come on at all. With the ignition key in the ACCESSORY or ON position, the rear cargo lamp can be turned ON or OFF by sliding the control. BULB REPLACEMENT Headlamp Condensation The headlamps are vented to equalize pressure. When moist air enters the headlamp(s) through the vents, there is a possibility that condensation can occur. This condensation is normal and will clear within 45 minutes of headlamp operation. Replacing exterior bulbs Check the operation of all the bulbs frequently. 51 2005 Freestar (win) Owners Guide (post-2002-fmt) USA (fus)
