DESCRIPTION OF OPERATION
The headlamps circuit is activated by stalk unit H5.
By bringing the switch to the main beam position or by closing the "blink" contact, headlamps F10 (left) and F11 (right) are powered: this is an ignition switch power supply (INT/A) of the line protected by fuse F13 on junction unit B1.
Each circuit is protected by a fuse of junction unit B1: F8 for the left headlamp and F9 for the right.
The right headlamp supply line also sends a signal to cluster E50 - pin 8 of connector C - to supply the "main beam lights on" warning light; pin 6 of connector B supplies the earth.
