Turn Signals: Description and Operation
The turn signal system consists of:- Turn signal miniature bulbs.
- Turn signal indicators in the instrument cluster.
- Lighting control module.
- Multi-function switch.
- Circuit wiring and circuit protection.
Power is supplied to the multi-function switch through fuse junction panel Fuse 5 (15 A). This fuse is hot in RUN and performs the flasher function. Ground is provided to the turn signal miniature bulbs through Circuit 57 (BK).
Turn signal functions are performed by double filament bulbs in lamp assemblies located next to the headlamps in front and in the rear lamp assemblies. The hazard function uses the second filament of the appropriate bulb(s).
- With the multi-function switch in the right turn position, power is supplied to the RH front and rear turn signal miniature bulbs on Circuit 5 (O/LB) and the right turn indicator in the instrument cluster.
- With the multi-function switch in the left turn position, power is supplied to the LH front and rear turn signal miniature bulbs on Circuit 9 (LG/O) and the left turn indicator in the instrument cluster.
