Electrical System 211
When using an aiming board, position the
vehicle five meters from and square to the aiming
board. Gently rock the vehi cle and allow the suspen-
sion to stabilize. Mark a reference line on the board to
correspond with the horizontal centre line of the
headlamp low beam bulbs. Mark two reference lines on the board to
correspond with the vertical centre lines of
the
headlamp low beam bulbs. Switch on the headlamps and select low
beam. Adjust the headlamps by turning the adjust-
ing screws located at the rear of the headlamp
assemblies. Adjust the headlamps to comply with local
regulations. As a guide, adjust the lamps so that the
low beam pattern strikes the aiming board with the
horizontal cut off point 50 mm below the headlamp
bulb horizontal centre line and the point where the
beam raises from the horizontal is on the headlamp
low beam bulb vertical centre line.
To Renew Low Beam Bulb (Pulsar)
Remove the dust cover from the rear of the
headlamp assembly.
Disconnect the wiring from the end of the
bulb.
Remove the cover from the rear of the
headlamp housing. Release the retaining clip from the bulb
holder and withdraw the bulb from the headlamp. Installation is a reversal of the removal procedure
ensuring that the new bulb is correctly located in the
bulb holder.
NOTE: Care must be taken not to handle
the glass portion of the bulb as this will
shorten the life of the bulb. Accidental
fingerprints can be removed by applying
methylated spirits to the bulb and drying
with clean tissue or cloth.

To Renew High Beam Bulb (Pulsar) or
High/Low Beam Bulb (Astra) Disconnect the wiring connector and re-
move the dust cover from the rear of the headlamp. Release the retaining clip and remove the
bulb from the bulb holder. Install the new bulb to the headlamp ensur-
ing that the metal plate is correctly located in the
bulb holder.
NOTE: Care must be taken not to handle
the glass portion of the bulb as this will
shorten the life of the bulb.
Accidental fingerprints can be re-
moved by applying methylated spirits to
the bulb and drying with clean tissue or
cloth.
(4) Secure the retaining clip, install the cover to
the headlamp and connect the wiring to the end of the
bulb.
FRONT COMBINATION LAMP (PULSAR)
OR TURN SIGNAL LAMP (ASTRA)
To Renew Bulb
(1) Remove the retaining screws from the front
combination lamp and remove the lens.

Renewing the front combination lamp bulb. Pulsar models.
(2) Push the bulb inwards, turn it anti-clock-
wise and remove it from the holder. Installation is a reversal of the removal procedure.
SIDE INDICATOR LAMP (PULSAR) OR
FRONT COMBINATION LAMP (ASTRA)
To Renew Bulb
(1) Remove the retaining screws and remove
the lens cover.
Renewing the low beam bulb.

Electrical System 217
When installing a trailer socket, it may be neces-
sary to replace the original vehicle flasher unit with a
heavy duty unit to maintain the flash rate in accor-
dance with local regulations. Local regulations may
also require the installation of a dashboard mounted
repeater lamp.

Should the trailer socket and plug not be matched,
adaptors can be made or obtained to facilitate con-
nection.

TO INSTAL TRAILER SOCKET.
The minimum materials required are a trailer
socket, mounting bracket, seven core flex, insulated
wiring connectors and a rubber grommet.

(1) Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
(2)Locate the wiring harness for the lamps at
the rear of the vehicle.

For five pin sockets and plugs, use the following
standard trailer wiring code:

Terminal No.CircuitColor2 Left turn signal lampYellow
3Earth White
5 Ri

6Stop lamp Red
7 Tail lam

Minimum material needed for wiring up a trailer.
Utilux trailer socket and plug shown.
(3) Identify the wires for the right turn signal
lamp, left turn signal lamp, tail lamp, stop lamp,
reverse lamp and earth. Use the vehicle wiring
diagram in this section to determine the wire color
for each lamp circuit.
(4)Connect the seven core flex to the various
lamp wires using insulated connectors.
For seven pin sockets and plugs, use the following
standard trailer wiring code:

For six pin sockets and pl ugs, use the following
standard trailer wiring code:

2 Left Turn Signal Lamp Yellow
3Right Turn Signal LampGreen
4 Stop LampRed
5AuxilaryBlue
6 Earth White

(5) Drill a suitably si
zed hole through the vehicle
floor and install a rubber grommet to the hole.

NOTE: Before drilling the hole, check
whether there is an existing hole which may-
be used. Ensure that a rubber grommet is
installed to prevent chafing of the wires.

Pass the seven core flex through the rubber
grommet. Cut the seven core flex to the required length
and slide the dust cover onto the flex. Remove approximately 15 mm of insulation
from each wire in the flex.
Connect the wires of the seven core flex to
the terminals of the socket, using the standard wiring
code and following the socket manufacturers connec-
tion procedure. Assemble the socket and install the dust cover
to the rear of the socket. Install the mounting bracket as close as
possible to the tow bar ball and high enough to
maintain vehicle ground clearance. Install the socket to the mounting bracket.
Connect a trailer plug to the socket and test
for correct lamp operation.
TO INSTAL TRAILER PLUG

The minimum materials required are a trailer
plug, seven core flex and insulated wiring connectors.

The installation procedure for the trailer plug is
similar to that for the socket with attention to the
following points:

Connect the trailer wiring to the plug accord-
ing to the standard wiring color code and the plug
manufacturers instructions. Use a suitable length of
seven core flex and insulated connectors should the
trailer wiring not be long enough.
If the trailer wiring does not conform to the
standard color code, identify each circuit as follows: (a) Locate the trailer earth wire.

PLUG

218 Electrical System
Connect a jumper lead from the negative
terminal of a 12 volt battery to the earth wire. Connect a jumper lead from the positive
terminal of a 12 volt battery and connect each of the
trailer lamp wires in turn to the positive battery terminal jumper lead, noting the color of the wire
and the lamp circuit operated.

(3) After installation, connect the trailer plug to
the socket on the vehicle and check for correct lamp
operation.


Vehicle and trailer wired to conform to Australian Standard AS2513. Sockets and plug shown are as viewed
from the terminal side of the component. Refer to the text for the correct terminal applications when using a
5 or 6 pin socket and plug.
