Headlamp System

The headlamp system consists of:
- two aerodynamic headlamps with replaceable halogen bulbs
- three-position headlamp switch (with integral circuit breaker)
- headlamp dimmer switch (part of multi-function switch)
- circuit wiring and circuit protection The headlamp switch:
- Is provided power through Circuit 37 (Y).
- Is protected by power distribution box Fuse 7 (60A) located in the engine compartment.
- Is provided ground at the headlamp bulb and retainers through Circuit 57 (BK).
- When pulled all the way out, provides power to the headlamp dimmer switch (part of the multi-function switch) through Circuit 15 (R/Y).

With the headlamp dimmer switch:
- In the LO position (middle position), power is supplied to the low-beam elements through Circuit 13 (R/BK).
- In the HI position (forward detent), power is supplied to the high-beam elements through Circuit 12 (LG/BK) and to the high-beam indicator in the instrument cluster.
- Momentarily pulled toward the steering wheel, the flash-to-pass switch closes and the high-beam headlamps light and will remain lit until the headlamp dimmer switch is released.
