Description and operationDoor Open

Door Open

Power is fed to the light from fuse 15 on a Y wire and is earthed on a G/R wire, by any of the door switches when a door is open.

Taildoor open

Power is fed to the light from fuse 15 on a Y wire and is earthed on a G wire by the switch on the taildoor when it is open.

Ignition/No Charge

This lamp will be lit whenever there is insufficient output from the alternator to charge the battery. The battery and alternator voltages are fed on B/Y and W/U wires respectively.

Glow Plug Warning Lamp

Power is fed to the light via fuse 15 on the Y wire. The operating period of the glow plugs is dependent upon the initial engine temperature determined by the ECM from the ECT sensor. Once the glow plugs have operated for their pre-determined time, the ECM will remove the supply from the glow plug relay and the warning lamp on a G/R - Y wire.

Twin Airbag Light

K, T and L series: Power is fed to the light on a Y wire from fuse 15 and is earthed on a P wire by the airbag ECM, if the system becomes faulty.

D series: Power is fed to the light on a Y wire from fuse 15 and is earthed on a P wire. The light is triggered by a feed on a U wire from the airbag ECM, if the system becomes faulty.

The light also works as a check light. It will light for three seconds when the ignition is switched ON, if the SRS is functioning correctly.
