MALFUNCTION INDICATOR (CHECK ENGINE)
LAMP
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides
ground for the malfunction indicator (Check Engine)
lamp on circuit G3. Circuit G3 connects to cavity 32
of the PCM. Circuit G5 connects to the instrument
cluster and supplies battery voltage for the malfunc-
tion indicator lamp. When illuminated, the malfunc-
tion indicator lamp displays the message CHECK
ENGINE.
For information regarding diagnostic trouble code
access using the malfunction indicator lamp, refer to
Group 14, Fuel Systems.
UP-SHIFT LAMP
On vehicles equipped with a manual transmission,
the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) provides
ground for the Up-Shift lamp on circuit K54. Circuit
G5 provides battery voltage for the lamp.
ABS WARNING LAMP
Circuit G5 provides power for the ABS warning
lamp at the instrument cluster. Ground for the ABS
warning lamp is provided by either the ABS control
module or by the ABS power relay when the relay is
not energized. The ABS control module illuminates
the lamp by providing ground on circuit G19.
Circuit G19 splices to connect to circuit B15
through a diode. When the ABS power relay is not
energized, it connects circuit B15 to circuit Z12. The
ground path for the warning lamp is provided
through the diode to circuit B15, through the ABS
power relay to ground on circuit Z12.
The diode between circuit G19 and B15 prevents
voltage from flowing to the ABS control module when
the ABS power relay switches to supply power on cir-
cuit B15.
BRAKE WARNING LAMP
Circuit G5 provides battery voltage for the brake
warning lamp. Circuit G11 can provide ground for
the lamp in 3 ways. The first ground path is through
the ignition switch when the key is in the START po-
sition.
The second ground path for the brake warning
lamp on circuit G11 is through the case grounded
brake warning switch. When the switch closes it pro-
vides a ground.
The third ground path on circuit G11 is through
the case grounded park brake switch. When the
switch closes it provides ground.
HIGH BEAM INDICATOR LAMP
Circuit G34 supplies power for the high-beam indi-
cator lamp when the operator either flashes the opti-
cal horn (high beams) or selects high beam operation.
Circuit Z1 provides the ground path for the lamp.
Circuit L3 from the headlamp switch powers the
high beam circuits of the headlamps. On vehicles not
equipped with Daytime Running Lamps (DRL), cir-
cuit G34 double crimps to circuit L3 at the bulkhead
connector.
On vehicles equipped with DRL, circuit L3 splices
to the DRL module. The DRL module powers circuit
G34.
TURN SIGNAL INDICATOR LAMPS
Circuit L61 supplies battery voltage to the left turn
signal indicator lamp. The right turn signal indicator
lamp receives battery voltage from circuit L60. The
turn signal/hazard flasher switch powers circuits L60
and L61. Circuit Z1 provides ground for the lamps.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²If the warning lamps, gauges and indicator lamps
don't operate, check fuse 4 in the PDC and fuse 9 in
the fuse block.
²If the illumination lamps don't operate, check fuse
10 in the fuse block.

HORN
The horn system uses a switch and horn relay. The
horn switch is in the center of the steering wheel.
Circuit A4 from fuse 8 in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) feeds circuit F31 through fuse 15 in
the PDC. Circuit F31 is HOT at all times and powers
the coil and contact sides of the horn relay.
When the case grounded horn switch is pressed,
circuit X3 provides ground for the coil side of the re-
lay and the contacts close. When the contacts close,
circuit X2 supplies voltage to the horn. Circuit Z1
provides ground for the horn.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²The horn switch is grounded to the steering wheel.
²Circuit F31 is double crimped at the coil side of
the horn relay.
²Check fuse 8 in the PDC and fuse 15 in the fuse
block.

HEADLAMPS
The headlamp switch has three positions: ON,
PARK (parking lamps) and OFF. Two circuits, L2 and
L20, connect the headlamp switch to the headlamp
dimmer/optical horn switch. The dimmer switch feeds
the low and high beams of the headlamps.
HEADLAMP SWITCH IN OFF OR PARKING
LAMP POSITION
Circuit A3 from fuse 7 in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) supplies battery voltage to the head-
lamp switch. The headlamp switch has an internal
circuit breaker that connects circuit A3 to circuit
L20. The switch connects circuit A3 to circuit L2
when the headlamps are ON.
Circuit L20 connects to the dimmer switch. Circuit
L20 powers the high beams of the head lamps on cir-
cuit L3 when the operator flashes the headlamps
with the turn signal stalk.
HEADLAMP SWITCH IN ON POSITION
When the headlamp switch is in the ON position,
the A3 circuit from the PDC connects to circuit L2.
Circuit L2 connects to circuit L4 through the dimmer
switch. Circuit L4 powers the low beam of the head-
lamps.
When the operator selects high beam operation
with the turn signal stalk, the dimmer switch con-
nects circuit L20 to circuit L3. Circuit L3 supplies
battery voltage to the high beams.
HEADLAMP GROUND
Although circuit Z1 provides ground for both the
right and left headlamps, it has different termination
points for each. For the right headlamp, the Z1 cir-
cuit terminates at the radiator right support. For the
left headlamp, the Z1 circuit terminates at the left
radiator support.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Check fuse 7 in the PDC.
²The headlamp switch has an internal circuit
breaker.
²For the left front parking lamp, turn signal, side
marker lamp, headlamp, and fog lamp, circuit Z1 ter-
minates at the left radiator support.²For the right front parking lamp, turn signal, side
marker lamp, headlamp, and fog lamp, circuit Z1 ter-
minates at the right radiator support.
PARKING LAMPS
Circuit A6 from fuse 3 in the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) connects to the fuse block bus bar that
powers circuit F33. Fuse 8 in the fuse block protects
circuit F33. Circuit F33 connects to the headlamp
switch.
The headlamp switch has three positions: ON,
PARK (parking lamps) and OFF, plus a dimmer
switch. When the headlamp switch is in the PARK or
ON position, the switch connects circuit F33 to cir-
cuit L7. From the headlamp switch, circuit L7
branches to power the front parking lamps, rear tail
lamps, and side marker lamps. Circuit L7 also pow-
ers the park lamp relay, if equipped with fog lamps.
GROUND CIRCUIT
²For the left front parking lamp, turn signal, side
marker lamp, headlamp, and fog lamp, circuit Z1 ter-
minates at the left radiator support.
²For the right front parking lamp, turn signal, side
marker lamp, headlamp, and fog lamp, circuit Z1 ter-
minates at the right radiator support.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Check fuse 3 in the PDC.
²Check fuse 8 in the fuse block.
²Circuit L7 also feeds the radio, if equipped.
FOG LAMPS
The fog lamps are controlled by the fog lamp
switch and two relays. The fog lamps operate only
when the headlamp switch is in the ON position, and
the operator has selected low-beam operation. When
the headlamps are in high-beam operation, the fog
lamps will not operate.
When the headlamps or parking lamps are ON, cir-
cuit L7 from the headlamp switch supplies battery
voltage to the coil side of the park lamp relay. When
the operator presses the fog lamp switch, it provides
ground for the coil side of the park lamp relay. This
energizes the relay.
J8W-50 FRONT LIGHTINGÐYJ VEHICLES 8W - 50 - 1

When the park lamp relay energizes, the relay con-
tacts close and connect circuit F81 from fuse 6 in the
fuse block to circuit L36. Circuit L36 connects to the
contact side of the high beam relay. The contacts in
the high beam relay are normally closed. Battery
voltage flows through high beam relay to the fog
lamps on circuit L39. Circuit L39 also splices to the
lamp in the fog lamp switch.
Circuit L3 from the dimmer switch provides power
for the high beams of the headlamps and connects to
Circuit G34. Circuit G34 powers the coil side of the
high beam relay. Circuit Z1 provides ground for the
coil. When the operator selects high beam operation
or flashes the optical horn, circuit G34 energizes the
high beam relay. When energized, the normally
closed contacts in the relay open, shutting off battery
voltage to the fog lamps on circuit L39.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Circuit A6 from fuse 3 in the PDC supplies voltage
to the fuse block for fuses in cavities 3 and 6. Fuse 6
in the fuse block protects circuit F81 which powers
the contact side of the park lamp relay.
²In the high beam position, the dimmer switch con-
nects circuit L20 from the headlamp switch to circuit
L3. The headlamp switch connects circuit A3 from
fuse 7 in the PDC with circuit L20. Circuits A3 and
L20 are HOT at all times.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP (DRL) MODULEÐ
CANADIAN VEHICLES ONLY
On Canadian vehicles, the low-beam headlamps op-
erate when the ignition switch is in the RUN position
and the headlamp switch is OFF.
When the ignition switch is in the START or RUN
positions, circuit A1 from fuse 4 in the Power Distri-
bution Center (PDC) connects to circuit A21. Circuit
A21 supplies voltage to circuit G5 through fuse 9 in
the fuse block. Circuit G5 splices to supply battery
voltage to the DRL module.
Circuit L20 from the headlamp switch connects to
the DRL module. Circuit L20 is HOT at all times.
The DRL module receives the vehicle speed sensor
input from circuit G7. Circuit G34 from the DRLmodule provides power for the high beam indicator
lamp in the instrument cluster.
Circuit L4 feeds the low beams of the headlamps.
When the headlamp switch is in the OFF position,
the DRL module powers the left and right headlamps
on circuit L4. When the headlamps are ON, the dim-
mer switch powers the low beams on circuit L4.
Circuit L3 feeds the high beams of the headlamps.
When the operator flashes the high beams with the
turn signal stalk, the DRL senses voltage on circuit
L3. When it senses voltage on circuit L3, the DRL
module stops supplying power to the low beams on
circuit L4.
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the DRL module.
Circuit Z1 terminates at the radiator left side sup-
port.
