Normal Operation
When the headlamp switch is placed in the headlamps on position, voltage is routed to circuit 15 (RD/YE) which sends power to the multifunction switch. The vehicle security module also supplies power to circuit 15 (RD/YE) when the autolamp system has requested the exterior lamps on.
For low beam headlamps, the multifunction switch routes power through circuit 13 (RD/BK) to CJB fuses 23 (10A) (RH headlamp) and 25 (10A) (LH headlamp). After passing through the fuses, voltage is then carried through circuits 161 (DG/OG) (RH headlamp) and 160 (DB/WH) (LH headlamp) to the low beam headlamps. If equipped with DRL, the DRL resistor also routes power to circuit 13 (RD/BK) (at a reduced voltage) when the ignition is in the RUN position and the high beams are off.
For high beam headlamps, the multifunction switch routes power to circuit 275 (YE) to the high beam relay. When the high beam relay receives battery voltage from circuit 275 (YE), the high beam relay is energized. Battery voltage received from the CJB is then routed to circuit 12 (LG/BK) via CJB fuse 40 (20A). Voltage is then carried to the high beam headlamps through circuit 12 (LG/BK). The fog lamp relay coil uses the high beam circuit as a ground when energized.
