Hazard Warning Flasher: Description and Operation
CIRCUIT OPERATION
The turn signal and hazard flasher system used in this vehicle is controlled by the combination flasher located in the junction block. On vehicles
built for sale in Canada the Daytime Running Lamp (DRL) module is part of the combination flasher.
Power for the combination flasher is supplied from two sources. One is a direct battery feed on circuit L9. This circuit is HOT at all times and
protected by a 40 Amp fuse located in cavity 6 of the Power Distribution Center (PDC).
The other power source is a fuse battery feed from the ignition switch on circuit A22. This circuit is HOT in the RUN position only and connects
from the ignition switch to the combination flasher.
Power for the A22 circuit is supplied on circuit A2. This circuit originates at the PDC and is protected by a 20 Amp fuse located in cavity 15.
When the operator selects the hazard flasher, circuit L91 is connected to the Z1 ground circuit through the turn signal switch.
The combination flasher senses the position of the switch and supplies power to the L60, L61, L62, and L63 circuits.
Circuit L60 connects from the combination flasher to the right front turn signal lamp. Ground for the lamp is supplied on circuit Z1 and terminates
at the right cowl panel.
Circuit L61 connects from the combination flasher to the left front turn signal lamp. Ground for the lamp is supplied on circuit Z1 and terminates
at the left cowl panel.
Circuit L62 connects from the combination flasher to the right rear turn signal lamp. Ground for the lamp is supplied on circuit Z1 and terminates
at the rear body ground. This circuit is also spliced and provides an input to the Body Control Module (BCM) to indicate the turn signals are ON
and to the indicator lamp in the message center.
Circuit L63 connects from the combination flasher to the left rear turn signal lamp. Ground for the lamp is supplied on circuit Z1 and terminates at
the rear body ground. This circuit is also spliced and provides an input to the Body Control Module (BCM) to indicate the turn signals are ON and
to the indicator lamp in the message center.
