Fusible link 3 (C0571) is connected to the ignition switch (C0028) by an N wire. When the ignition switch is turned to the 'ignition' position, current flows across the switch (C0028) to fuse 2 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0588) on an NW wire.
Fuse 2 (C0580) provides an ignition feed to the following on G wires:
The reverse lamp relay (C0935) (automatic transmission vehicles only). The brake pedal switch (C0075).
Fuse 2 (C0581) also provides an ignition feed to the reverse lamp switch (C0163) (K1.8 and Td4 manual transmission vehicles only) on a G wire.

The brake pedal switch (C0075) is provided an ignition feed from fuse 2 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0580) on a G wire. When the brake pedal is pressed, current flows across the switch (C0075) to the following on GP wires:
The RH brake lamp (C0125). The RH brake lamp (C0489) (NAS vehicles only). The LH brake lamp (C0121). The LH brake lamp (C0490) (NAS vehicles only). The Centre High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) (C0613).
