Description and Operation
A multi-function switch located on the left stalk of the steering column switch assembly permits selection of either parking
(side), headlamps, auto-headlamp or off. Selection of a particular mode provides the appropriate input to the body
processor module (BPM).
Where the auto headlamp function is incorporated, a light sensor in the interior rear view mirror monitors ambient light and
provides an input to the BPM. The BPM responds by switching the low beam headlamps on or off as appropriate for the
prevailing light conditions.
The front and rear fog lamp switch is located on the fascia outboard of the steering column.

Headlamp assembly
Each headlamp assembly consists of tw o headlamp units. The dipped beam lamp unit is located outboard and the main
beam lamp unit located inboard also carries the front parking (side) lamp. Access for bulb replacement is from the engine
compartment.
