Side Lamps
When the lighting switch is moved to the side lamp position, current flows across the switch (C1082 on LHD, C0041 on RHD) to fuse 18 fuse 19 and fuse 20 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0581) on an R wire. Fuse 18 (C0581) provides a feed to the following on RO wires:
The RH front side lamp (C0537) The RH tail lamp (C0125 on 90 & 110 vehicles, C0489 on 130 vehicles) The trailer socket (C0499)
All are earthed on B wires.
Fuse 19 (C0581) provides a feed to the following on RB wires:
The LH front side lamp (C0538) The LH tail lamp (C0121 on 90 & 110 vehicles, C0490 on 130 vehicles) The number plate lamp (C0138 on 90 & 110 vehicles, C0140 on 130 vehicles) The trailer socket (C0499) The side lamp warning lamp (C0233) located in the instrument pack.
All are earthed on B wires.
Fuse 20 (C0581) provides a feed to the dim dip relay (C0048) on an RO wire.
Headlamp Dim Dip
The dim dip relay (C0048) is provided an ignition feed from fuse 15 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0580) on a WG wire. With the lighting switch in the side lamp position, the dim dip relay (C0048) is earthed on a B wire.
Fusible link 6 of the under seat fuse box (C0571) provides a constant battery feed to the dim dip resistor (C0014) on an NU then NW wire. The dim dip resistor (C0014) provides a reduced feed to the dim dip relay (C0048) on an NG wire. The energised dim dip relay (C0048) provides a feed to fuse 22 and 23 of the passenger compartment fuse box on a UR wire.
Fuse 22 (C0581) provides a reduced feed to the RH headlamp dipped beam bulb (C0011) on a UB wire. Fuse 23 (C0581) provides a reduced feed to the LH headlamp dipped beam bulb (C0009 on a UK wire. Both bulbs are earthed on B wires.
