OPERATION
When engine is stoppedWhen the ignition switch is switched to the “ON”
position, electricity flows from the
‘I” terminal of
the generator to the field coil, and at the same time
the charging warning light illuminates.
When engine is being started/has started
When the engine is started, charging voltage is ap-
plied to the ‘I” terminal of the generator, with the
result that the charging warning light is extinguished.
In addition, because battery voltage is applied to
the “S” terminal of the generator, this battery voltage
is monitored at the
IC voltage regulator, thus switch-ing ON and OFF the current to the field coil and
thereby controlling the output voltage of the genera-
tor.
Power is supplied to each load from the “B” terminal
of the generator.
NOTE
The generator relay functions as a back-up for the
flow of electricity to the field coil if there is a discon-
nection or damaged wiring of the charging warning
light.

TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS1. Charging warning light does not go on when
the ignition switch is turned to “ON”, before the
engine starts.l Check the bulb.
2.Charging warning light fails to go off once the
engine starts.l
Check the IC voltage regulator (located with-
in the generator).
3. Discharged or overcharged battery.l
Check the IC voltage regulator (located with-
in the generator).4. The charging warning light illuminates dimly.
l Check the diode (within the combination
meter) for a short-circuit.

OPERATION<Dome
light>l
Battery voltage is always applied to the dome light. When the dome light switch is turned to “ON”,
the dome light will remain lit. After either door is opened if the dome light switch is at “DOOR” position,the dome light will come on.
lWith the dome light turned on (with the ignition switch in the OFF position and with the dome light
switch in the DOOR position), close all doors, and the timer circuit in the ETACS unit will be activatedto gradually vary the voltage for approx. 6 seconds owing to the duty control, and the voltage will
be output to transistor Tr. Since the voltage applied to the dome light gradually decreases, the dome
light will be dimmed.lIf the ignition switch is turned to “ON” while the dome light is lit (while the timer is activated), the
timer circuit will be opened to turn “OFF” transistor Tr. This will immediately turn off the dome light
without dimming.<Foot lights and ignition key illumination
light>-lBattery voltage is always applied to the foot lights and ignition key illumination light.
With the ignition switch in the OFF position, open any door, and all lights will come on.
l
With all lights turned on (with the ignition switch in the OFF position), close all doors, and the timercircuit inside the ETACS unit will operate in the same manner as the dome light to dim all lights.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON position with all lights turned on (with the timer in operation),the same operation as the dome light will take place.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 1. When operation is normal
l
When the ignition switch is switched to the
ON position, battery voltage is applied (viathe multipurpose fuse (11) and hazard
switch) to the turn-signal and hazard flasher
unit.l
When the turn-signal switch is switched to
the LH position,
Trl (within the flasher unit)
is switched ON and OFF repeatedly.
Then the contacts of the relay 1 (also within
the flasher unit) repeatedly switch from ON
to OFF, causing the turn-signal lights and
turn-signal indicator light LH to flash.l
When the turn-signal switch is switched to
the RH position, Tr2 (within the flasher unit)
is switched ON and OFF repeatedly.Then the contacts of relay 2 (also within
the flasher unit) repeatedly switch from ON
to OFF, causing the turn-signal lights and
turn-signal indicator light RH to flash.2. If one of the bulbs is burned out
lIf the LH (or RH) turn-signal light bulb is
burned-out, the resistance of the turn-signalcircuit as a whole increases, resulting in
Lshorter ON and OFF intervals of the LHTrl (or RH Tr2) and a higher flashing rateof the LH lights (or RH lights).CHASSIS ELECTRICAL

OPERATION
<Hazard-warning lights,
lWhen the hazard-warning switch is switch-
ed to the “ON” position, the relay contactof the turn signal and hazard flasher unit
is switched ON and OFF repeatedly, in thesame manner as for the operation of the
turn-signal lights, and the left and right turn-
signal lights and turn-signal indicator lights
simultaneously flash repeatedly.
NOTE
(1) The number of flashes of the hazard-warn-
ing lights does not change if there is dam-
aged or disconnected wiring of one light.
(2)The light automatic shut-OFF system is valid
for the illumination light of the hazard switch.(Refer to
P.54-37.)
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
1.The turn-signal lights and hazard-warning lightsdo not operate at all.
l Check the hazard switch contact (power
supply side).l Check the turn-signal and hazard flasher
unit.2. All turn-signal lights at the left (or right) side
do not function.
(1) The hazard-warning lights function normal-
ly-lCheck the hazard switch contact (turn-
signal side).l Check the turn-signal switch.
3.The number of flashes of the turn-signal lights
is excessive.l Check the bulbs.

OPERATIONl
The horn switch always receives battery voltagevia the dedicated fuse (6) and the coil of the
horn relay.
l
When the horn switch is set to ON, the contactsof the horn relay close.
Then current flows through the dedicated fuse
(6) to the contacts of the horn relay, the hornand ground, causing the horn to sound.1. One of the horn does not sound.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTSl Check the horn.
2. Horns do not sound.
l Check the horn switch.
l Check the dedicated fuse (6).
NOTE
(1) For vehicles equipped with the theft-alarm sys-tem, refer to
P.54-205.
(2) For information concerning the horn relay and
theft-alarm horn relay, refer to
P.54-?18.
