auxiliary battery CHEVROLET BLAZER 2003 2.G Owners Manual

Dome Lamps
The dome lamps will come on when you open a door.
You can also turn the dome lamps on by turning
the thumbwheel, located next to the exterior lamps
control, all the way up to the top position. In this
position, the dome lamps will remain on until they are
turned off.
You can press the DOME OVERRIDE button, located
below the exterior lamp control. This will override
the entry lighting feature, unless you use your keyless
entry transmitter (if equipped) to unlock the vehicle.
Battery Run-Down Protection
This feature shuts off the dome, courtesy, vanity,
reading, glove box and underhood lamps if they are left
on for more than 20 minutes when the ignition is off.
This will keep your battery from running down.
If the battery run-down protection shuts off the interior
lamps, it may be necessary to do one of the following to
return to normal operation:
·Shut off all lamps and close all doors.
·Turn the ignition key to RUN.
Accessory Power Outlets
Your vehicle may be equipped with accessory power
outlets.
With accessory power outlets you can plug in auxiliary
electrical equipment such as a cellular telephone or
CB radio.
There maybe two accessory power outlets located near
the center of the vehicle on the lower part of the
instrument panel. There may also be additional
accessory power outlets located behind the front storage
area for rear seat passengers. A small cap must be
pulled down to access an accessory power outlet. When
not using an outlet be sure to cover it with the
protective cap.
Notice:When using an accessory power outlet,
maximum electrical load must not exceed 20 amps.
Always turn off any electrical equipment when
not in use. Leaving electrical equipment on for
extended periods will drain your battery.

Trailer Wiring Harness
The light-duty trailer wiring is a six-wire harness
assembly. The optional heavy-duty trailer wiring is an
eight-wire harness assembly. The harnesses are stored
under the vehicle, along the passenger-side frame
crossmember on two-door vehicles or on the driver's
side corner frame rear crossmember on four-door
vehicles. The heavy-duty trailer wiring is fused in the
engine compartment fuse block. See
Fuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 5-85. Both harnesses have no
connector and should be wired by a quali®ed electrical
technician. The technician can use the following
color code chart when connecting the wiring harness to
your trailer.
·Dark Blue: Use for electric trailer brakes or auxiliary
wiring (eight-wire harness only).
·Red: Use for battery charging; it connects to the
starter solenoid (eight-wire harness only).
·Light Green: Back-up lamps.
·Brown: Taillamps and parking lamps.
·Yellow: Driver's side stoplamp and turn signal.
·Dark Green: Passenger's side stoplamp and turn
signal.
·White: Ground wire.
·Light Blue: Auxiliary stoplamp.
Securely attach the harness to the trailer, then tape or
strap it to your vehicle's frame rail. Be sure you
leave it loose enough so the wiring doesn't bend or
break, but not so loose that it drags on the ground. Store
the harness in its original place. Wrap the harness
together and tie it neatly so it won't be damaged.
