(HEADLIGHT SYSTEM)
Description ± Headlight System
The component parts of this system and their function are described in the \
following table.
Parts NameFunction
Light Control SwitchGrounds current from the headlight control relay and taillight control r\
elay via the
integration relay, switching each relay and supplying current to the appropriate bulbs
accordance with the switch position.
Dimmer SwitchGrounds current from the dimmer relay in accordance with the switch posi\
tion, turning
on the ºLO±Beamº or ºHI Beamº lights. In the case of º\
FLASHº it turns the heading
control relay and turns on the ºHI Beamº lights.
Headlight Control
RelayTurned on by signals from the light control switch, dimmer switch and run\
ning light
relay and supplies current to each bulb or headlight dimmer relay.
Headlight
Dimmer RelayReceives current from the headlight control relay, which switches the relay according
to the position of the dimmer switch and sends current to the headlight \
ºLO±Beamº
or ºHI Beamº.
Integration RelayCarries out ºLight Auto Turn±offº of the headlights and taillights and cuts off current to
the light control switch in accordance with signals from the GAUGE fuse \
and courtesy
switch.
