Installation Notes and Tips

Verify the connector shape, terminal count, and vehicle equipment before installation. This HLS-1142 uses a direct snap-fit design with a single rectangular female connector and 14 male pin terminals, so matching the original switch layout is important for proper fitment. Confirm whether the vehicle has fog lights or Bluetooth, since the fitment notes exclude those configurations where stated.

Quality Assurance

Standard Ignition builds this switch with robust materials and copper alloy conductors, then tests each part for mechanical and electrical switching performance before release. That validation supports consistent operation in service replacement applications.
