DEFENDER 1999 MY
EXTERIOR LAMPS - Indicators / Hazard Warning Lamps
DESCRIPTION
The indicators are controlled from the steering column switch and operate
when the ignition switch is in position ’II’.
The hazard lamp switch is located adjacent the steering column. Hazard
operation is not dependent on the position of the ignition switch. When the
hazard switch is depressed, the left and right hand indicator lamps, the hazard
warning switch itself, and the hazard warning lamp in the instrument pack will
all flash.
OPERATION
Feed from the battery positive terminal is connected to the engine compartment
fuse box (C0632-1) by a brown wire. Current flows across fusible link 5 and
fuse 7, which are connected in parallel. Fusible link 5 (C0570-2) supplies a
feed to the ignition switch (C0028-1) on a brown/white wire. Fuse 7 (C0574-1)
provides a permanent battery feed to the hazard warning switch (C0096-7) on
a purple/brown wire.
Indicators
With the ignition switch in position ’II’, current flows across the switch
(C0094-1) to fuse 3 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0580-1) on a
white wire. Fuse 3 (C0580-6) is connected to the hazard warning switch
(C0096-8) by a white/green wire. With the hazard warning switch in the off
position, power flows through the switch (C0096-5) to the hazard warning relay
(C0547-6) on a light green wire.
This feed energises the hazard warning relay, which is earthed (C0547-4) on a
black wire. Current can now flow across the energised hazard warning relay
(C0547-8) to the column switch (C0036-3) on a light green/brown wire.
