GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The intermittent direction indicators and hazard warning lights are positioned at the corners of the vehicle.
The right and left direction indicators are selected by raising or lowering the specific lever located in the lever group; the hazard warning lights (right and left direction indicators activated simultaneously) are switched on by acting on the switch located behind the steering wheel near the instrument panel.
The direction indicators operate when the ignition key is inserted, the hazard warning lights, for obvious reasons of safety, are supplied directly by the battery.
Two intermittent warning lamps located on the instrument panel flash when either the right or left direction indicator has been selected. Another intermittent warning lamp signals the operation of
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The circuit is controlled by the hazard warning lights and direction indicators intermittence N13 located in fusebox G1.
The intermittence, grounded, pin 31, receives a supply signal, pin 49, through the hazard warning lights switch B12: when these are not selected, supply is key-operated through fuse F17 (7.5A) of fusebox G1; when the hazard warning lights are selected, the supply comes directly from the battery through fuse
F1 (10 A) in G1.
The device N13 generates an intermittent signal which leaves pin 49a and supplies the contacts of switch B12 and the direction indicators switch of lever group B68.
By acting on the specific lever in lever group B68, the right-hand direction indicators (E23, E9b and E25) or the left-hand indicators (E24, E9a ed E26) are actuated as is the relative warning lamp on the instrument panel C10.
Pressing switch B12 closes the three contacts which supply the right and left-hand indicators and the hazard warning lights warning lamp on the instrument panel C10.
N.B. The warning light is not present on vehicles with a type "B" instrument panel - see "Instrument Panel" section.
