Low BeamsThe headlight relay receives battery voltage at all times. When you turn the headlight switch to the HEAD position and the dimmer switch is in LOW, ground is applied at the BLU/GRN wire to the coil of the headlight relay. The relay is energized, applying battery voltage to the left and right high and low beam headlights through fuses 19 and 20. The low beam bulbs come ON because the opposite terminal is tied to ground. The high beam bulbs and indicator remain OFF because the ground path to these bulbs is interrupted by the deactivated dimmer relay.
High Beams
When you pull the dimmer switch to HIGH with the low beams already ON, a ground signal is applied to the dimmer relay from the dimmer switch. This energizes the dimmer relay, applying ground to the high beam bulbs and high beam indicator, which turns ON the high beams and indicator light. The low beams go OFF because their ground path is interrupted by the activated dimmer relay.
Flash-to-Pass
When you hold the flash-to-pass switch in the ON position, ground is applied at the BLU/GRN wire to the coil of the headlight relay and at the GRN wire of the dimmer relay. This energizes the headlight relay applying battery voltage to the low and high beam bulbs and to the dimmer relay. As the high beam bulbs receive battery voltage, the dimmer relay is energized, applying ground to the high beam bulbs and high beam indicator, which turns ON the high beams and indicator light. The low beams go OFF because their ground path is interrupted by the activated dimmer relay.
