Instrument illumination
Dimmer switch
The instrument pack contains 3 bulbs to illuminate the dials. Depending on market the bulbs are illuminated either
from the side lamps feed with no dimmer control or from a PWM dimmer control located on the dashboard. A PWM
dimmer is used so finer control of the instrument illumination can be achieved.
The input is either direct from the side lamp power feed or from the PWM dimmer control. The instrument pack
provides the earth path to illuminate the lamps.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 88-17
Main beam warning lamp
The main beam warning lamp within the instrument pack utilises a clear 14 volt 2 watt long life bulb and a blue legend.
The bulb illuminates when the headlamps are switched to main beam, providing the driver with a visible warning.
There is no self-test performed at ignition on for this warning lamp.
Operating the main beam switch provides the Intelligent Driver Module (IDM) with battery voltage. This feed activates
the IDM to supply the power for the main beam warning lamp. The earth path is provided through the instrument pack.
