Battery Disconnect Switch

4700 dm 09.01.000

Your Western Star vehicle may be equipped with a cab load disconnect switch (CLDS).

The optional CLDS (see Fig.) is used to minimize draw on the battery, and should be set to OFF when the vehicle is parked for an extended period of time.

When the CLDS is set to OFF, it signals the PNDB to disconnect battery power to the circuits powered by the MIDI fuses.

The CLDS is mounted on the underdash cover, outboard of the steering column.

Important: The ignition should be turned OFF before using the CLDS.
