Daytime Running Lamp: Description and Operation
1. DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT OPERATIONWhen the engine is started, voltage generated at TERMINAL L of the generator is applied to TERMINAL 11 of the daytime running light relay (Main).
If the parking brake lever is pulled up (The parking brake SW on) at this time, the relay is not activated, so the daytime running light system does not operate. If the parking brake lever is then released (The parking brake SW off), a signal is input to TERMINAL 8 of the relay. This activates the relay, so current flows from battery to the HEAD relay (Point side) to TERMINAL 4 of the DIMMER relay to TERMINAL 1 to HEAD (LO LH), (LO RH) fuse to TERMINAL 1 of the headlights to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 1 of the daytime running light resistor to TERMINAL 2 to GROUND. This causes headlights to light up (Headlights light up dimmer than full brightness.).
Once the daytime running light system operates and headlights light up, headlights remain on even if the parking brake lever is pulled up (The parking brake SW on).
If the engine stalls and the ignition SW remains on, headlights remain lighted up even through current is no longer output from TERMINAL L of the generator. If the ignition SW is then turned off, the headlights go off. If the engine is started with the parking brake lever released (The parking brake SW off), the daytime running light system operates and headlights light up when the engine starts.
2. HEADLIGHT OPERATION
When the light control SW is switched to HEAD position, current flows from the DRL fuse to TERMINAL 4 of the DRL relay to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 1 of the diode No.1 to TERMINAL 2 to integration relay to TERMINAL 13 of the light control SW to TERMINAL 16 to GROUND, activating the DRL relay. Current then flows from the HEAD (LO LH), (LO RH) fuse to TERMINAL 1 of the headlights to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 2 of the DRL relay to TERMINAL 1 to GROUND, causing headlights to light up at normal intensity.
When the dimmer SW is switched to HIGH position, the signal from the dimmer SW is input to the daytime running light relay (Main). This activates the relay and current flows from TERMINAL 4 of the DIMMER relay to TERMINAL 2 to TERMINAL 17 of the daytime running light relay (Main), activating the DIMMER relay.
This causes current to flow from TERMINAL 4 of the DIMMER relay to TERMINAL 3 to HEAD (HI LH), (HI RH) fuse to TERMINAL 2 of the headlights to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 2 of the DRL relay to TERMINAL 1 to GROUND, causing headlights to light up at high beam.
When the dimmer SW is switched to FLASH position, the daytime running light relay (Main) is activated and current flows from TERMINAL 4 of the DIMMER relay to TERMINAL 2. Current from the DRL fuse flows TERMINAL 4 of the DRL relay to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 1 of the diode No.1 to TERMINAL 2 to TERMINAL 1 of the diode No.2 to TERMINAL 2 to TERMINAL 8 of the dimmer SW to TERMINAL 16to GROUND, and also flows from the HEAD (HI LH), (HI RH) fuse to TERMINAL 2 of the headlights to TERMINAL 3 to TERMINAL 2 of the DRL relay to TERMINAL 1 to GROUND, causing the high beam to operate.
