tested with test lamp.

1. turned on the light switch and checked for voltage at the instrument lamp fuse. (NONE)

2. Connected a jumper wire between the instrument lamp fuse and a hot fuse terminal. Cluster lights still do not work. But, test light lights at the instrument panel fuse terminal.

When I turn on the light switch, HEADLAMPS and PARKING LIGHTS work. Instrument lamps do not. Dome lamp does not (even though, test lamp lights up on dome lamp fixture terminals).

Beginning to think that I have a partially bad light switch. So that I can further test the green and red wire connections within the switch, how does that switch disconnect?
