Head, side, tail and number plate lamps operation

Headlamps

Dipped beam The lighting switch common receives battery voltage on an N wire from fusible link 3 in the engine compartment fuse box.

Provided the dip/main switch is in the 'DIP' position, operation of the lighting switch to position II, switches battery voltage on a UR wire to fuses A2 and C2 in the passenger compartment fuse box. Battery voltage is switched from fuse A2 to the RH dip lamp on a UR wire and from fuse C2 to the LH dip lamp on a UR wire. Since the other side of the lamps are permanently connected to earth on B wires the lamps will illuminate.

Main beam The lighting switch common receives battery voltage on an N wire from fusible link 3 in the engine compartment fuse box.

Provided the dip/main switch is in the 'MAIN' position, operation of the lighting switch to position II, switches battery voltage on a UW wire to fuses A1 and C1 in the passenger compartment fuse box. Battery voltage is switched from fuse A1 to the RH main lamp on a UW wire and from fuse C1 to the LH main lamp on a UW wire. Since the other side of the lamps are permanently connected to earth on B wires the lamps will illuminate.

Headlamp flash The lighting switch common receives battery voltage on an N wire from fusible link 3 in the engine compartment fuse box.

Regardless of the position of the dip/main switch or the lighting switch, operation of the headlamp flash switch switches battery voltage on a UW wire to fuses A1 and C1 in the passenger compartment fuse box. Battery voltage is switched from fuse A1 to the RH main lamp on a UW wire and from fuse C1 to the LH main lamp on a UW wire. Since the other side of the lamps are permanently connected to earth on B wires the lamps will illuminate for as long as the headlamp flasher switch remains closed.

Side and tail lamps The lighting switch common receives battery voltage on an N wire from fusible link 3 in the engine compartment fuse box.

Operation of the lighting switch to position I, switches battery voltage on an R wire to fuses A3 and C3 in the passenger compartment fuse box. Battery voltage is switched from fuse A3 to the RH side and tail lamps on RW wires and from fuse C3 to the LH side and tail lamps on RB wires. Since the other side of the lamps are permanently connected to earth on B wires the lamps will illuminate.
