With Daytime Running Lights (DRL)


Voltage is applied to the Daytime Running Lamps Relay (Canadian only) at all times through the ORN (240) wire from the DRL Fuse and when the Ignition Switch is placed in RUN through the PNK/BLK (39) wire from the GAUGES Fuse. The relay provides voltage to the LH High Beam through the DK BLU/WHT (593) wire. This wire also becomes the ground wire when the Headlamps are operating normally.

Voltage is applied to the Daytime Running Lamps Module (Canadian only) when the Ignition Switch is placed in RUN, the voltage from the relay is provided a ground path through the LT GRN (11) wire through the module. This enables the relay to provide voltage to the High Beam Lamps in series causing the lamps to share the voltage resulting the lamps operating at half intensity.

The module will not enable the relay if the Light Switch is placed in the ON position or the Park Brake Switch is ON.

The High Beam Indicator also receives voltage from the module when the Headlamp Dimmer Switch is in the High position.
