Normal Operation
The instrument cluster monitors the door ajar switch status on circuits 159 (RD/PK), 1034 (BK/WH) and 628 (WH) for a ground supplied through the ajar switches by circuit 57 (BK), indicating an open door. The instrument cluster then grounds circuits 1005 (VT/OG) and 1008 (LG/OG), energizing the battery saver relay and the interior lamp relay. When the relays are energized, voltage is supplied to the interior lamp circuits.
