Legend Sedan V6-3206cc 3.2L SOHC FI (1995)
Key Cylinder Lamp: Description and Operation
L Models
Battery voltage is applied to the entry light control circuit at all times through fuse 56 and, with the ignition switch in ON (II) or START (III), through
fuse 13. The entry light control circuit is grounded at G303. On LS and GS models, with the headlight switch in PARK or HEAD, voltage is also applied
to the circuit through fuse 49.
The entry light control circuit has inputs from all 4 doors and the driver's door outside handle switch. On LS and GS models, the circuit has inputs from
the ignition key switch and the courtesy light controller.
The entry light timer system is designed to facilitate entry and exit. The system controls the operation of the front and rear ceiling lights, ignition key
cylinder light, driver's door key cylinder light, door courtesy lights and footwell lights. See the individual lights listed below for a description of their
operation.
Ignition Key Cylinder Light, and Driver's Door Key Cylinder Light
Battery voltage through fuse 57 is applied at all times to both lights in this circuit. When the driver's door outside handle is pulled or the door is
opened, a separate ground path is provided to both lights by the entry light control circuit (see schematic). Both lights will come ON and stay ON
for several seconds after the last door is closed.
Footwell, Door Courtesy and Interior Lights
Battery voltage through fuse 57 is applied to all the lights in this circuit and to the coil of the ceiling light relay. With any door open, the entry light
control circuit will ground the coil of the ceiling light relay. The door courtesy lights and the ceiling lights will then have a ground path through the
closed contacts of the energized relay to G302, and the lights will come ON. The left footwell light is provided a separate ground to the entry light
control circuit through the WHT/BLK wire (see schematic). The footwell light will stay ON for several seconds after the last door is closed. The
door courtesy and ceiling lights will go OFF immediately.
