Headlamps

The headlamps are controlled by the multifunction lever located on the left side of the steering column. They will come ON with the ignition switch in any position. Turning the headlamp switch to the first position turns ON the parking lamps, the sidemarker lamps, the license plate lamps, and the instrument panel illumination. Turning the switch to the second position turns ON all of the previous lamps and the headlamps. Turning the switch to the OFF position turns OFF all the lamps.

Headlamp high beam and low beam are also controlled by this lever. When the headlamps are ON, pushing the lever away from the driver until the switch clicks changes the lamp from low beam to high beam, and returns to low beam when the lever is pulled back. Pulling the lever toward the driver also turns ON the high beam. The head- lamps return to low beam when the lever is released. An indicator lamp on the instrument cluster assembly will come on when the high-beam headlamps are ON.

The headlamps must be aimed for proper illumination of the road. Headlamp aim should be checked whenever a new headlamp assembly is installed or service repairs to the front end area may have disturbed the headlamp assembly or its mountings.
