Circuit F32 in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC) feeds the stop lamps. Circuit F32 connects to
the stop lamp switch. A 15 amp fuse in the PDC pro-
tects circuit F32.
When the operator presses the brake pedal, the
stop lamp switch CLOSES and connects circuit F32
to circuit L50. Circuit L50 connects to the stop
lamps. Circuit L50 also splices to power the CHMSL
lamp.
GROUND CIRCUIT
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the stop lamps,
CHMSL lamp, and the stop lamp switch. The Z1 cir-
cuit has more than one grounding point. It also sup-
plies ground path for the tail lamps, parking lamps,
headlamps, side marker lamps, rear license plate
lamp, back-up lamps and turn signals.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Check for blown fuses in circuit F32 (in PDC).
²Check for continuity across the stop lamp switch
when it is CLOSED.
²For rear lighting on the left side of the vehicle,
the Z1 circuit grounding point is in the left rear
wheel well.
²For rear lighting on the right side of the vehicle,
the Z1 circuit grounding point is in the right rear
wheel well.
²For the stop lamp switch, the Z1 circuit ground-
ing point is in the left front inner fender shield.
BACK-UP LAMPS
In the RUN position, the ignition switch connects
circuit A2 from the Power Distribution Center (PDC)to circuit A22. Circuit A22 feeds a bus bar in the fuse
block. A 40 amp fuse in the PDC protects the A2 and
A22 circuits.
Circuit F20 is one of four circuits that connects to
the fuse block bus bar fed by circuit A22. Circuit F20
supplies power to the back-up lamp switch. On 3±spd
automatic transaxle vehicles, the back-up lamp
switch is part of an assembly that includes the park/
neutral position switch.
When the operator puts the transmission in
REVERSE, the back-up lamp switch connects circuit
F20 to circuit L1. Circuit L1 feeds the back-up lamps.
A 10 amp fuse, in cavity 8 of the fuse block, protects
F20 and L1 circuits.
GROUND CIRCUIT
Circuit Z1 provides ground for the back-up lamps.
The Z1 circuit has more than one grounding point. It
also supplies ground path for the tail lamps, parking
lamps, headlamps, side marker lamps, rear license
plate lamp, stop lamps and turn signals.
HELPFUL INFORMATION
²Check for blown fuses in circuits A2 and F20.
²Check for continuity across the stop lamp switch
when it is CLOSED.
²For rear lighting on the left side of the vehicle,
the Z1 circuit grounding point is in the left rear
wheel well.
²For rear lighting on the right side of the vehicle,
the Z1 circuit grounding point is in the right rear
wheel well.
²Circuit F20 feeds the heated rear window switch
and A/C clutch cycling switch.
