HEADLAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp (or security) relay is located in the
Power Distribution Center (PDC) near the battery in
the engine compartment (Fig. 14). See the fuse and
relay layout label affixed to the inside surface of the
PDC cover for headlamp relay identification and loca-
tion. The headlamp relay is a conventional Interna-
tional Standards Organization (ISO) micro relay.
Relays conforming to the ISO specifications have
common physical dimensions, current capacities, ter-
minal patterns, and terminal functions. The relay is
contained within a small, rectangular, molded plastic
housing. The relay is connected to all of the required
inputs and outputs through its PDC receptacle by
five male spade-type terminals that extend from the
bottom of the relay base. The ISO designation for
each terminal is molded into the base adjacent to the
terminal. The ISO terminal designations are as fol-
lows:
²30 (Common Feed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the movable contact point of the relay.
²85 (Coil Ground)- This terminal is connected
to the ground feed side of the relay control coil.
²86 (Coil Battery)- This terminal is connected
to the battery feed side of the relay control coil.
²87 (Normally Open)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally open fixed contact point of the
relay.
²87A (Normally Closed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally closed fixed contact point of
the relay.
The headlamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If the relay is damaged or faulty, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The headlamp (or security) relay is an electrome-
chanical switch that uses a low current input from
the high-line or premium Central Timer Module
(CTM) to control a high current output to the head-
lamps. The movable common feed contact point is
held against the fixed normally closed contact point
by spring pressure. When the relay coil is energized,
an electromagnetic field is produced by the coil wind-
ings. This electromagnetic field draws the movable
relay contact point away from the fixed normally
closed contact point, and holds it against the fixed
normally open contact point. When the relay coil is
de-energized, spring pressure returns the movable
contact point back against the fixed normally closed
contact point. A resistor or diode is connected in par-
allel with the relay coil in the relay, and helps to dis-
sipate voltage spikes and electromagnetic
interference that can be generated as the electromag-
netic field of the relay coil collapses.
The headlamp relay terminals are connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a connector recepta-
cle in the Power Distribution Center (PDC). The
inputs and outputs of the headlamp relay include:
²The common feed terminal (30) is connected to
ground at all times through a take out and eyelet
terminal connector of the right headlamp and dash
wire harness that is secured by a ground screw to
the left fender inner shield near the PDC in the
engine compartment.
²The coil ground terminal (85) is connected to the
Central Timer Module (CTM) through the security
relay control circuit. The CTM energizes the head-
lamp relay control coil by internally pulling this cir-
cuit to ground.
²The coil battery terminal (86) is connected to
battery current at all times through a fused B(+) cir-
cuit that is internal to the PDC.
²The normally open terminal (87) is connected to
the headlamps at all times through the beam select
switch low beam output circuit. This circuit provides
a path to ground for the headlamps through the com-
mon feed terminal when the headlamp relay control
coil is energized by the CTM.
²The normally closed terminal (87A) is not con-
nected to any circuit in this application, but is
grounded through the common feed terminal when
the headlamp relay control coil is de-energized.
The headlamp relay can be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.

MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The multi-function switch is secured with two
screws to the left side of the upper steering column
housing at the top of the steering column, just below
the steering wheel (Fig. 24). The only visible parts of
the multi-function switch are the control stalk that
extends through a dedicated opening in the left side
of the upper steering column shrouds, and the haz-
ard warning switch push button that protrudes
through an opening in the upper steering column
shroud on the top of the steering column. The
remainder of the switch, its mounting provisions, and
its electrical connections are all concealed beneath
the steering column shrouds. The multi-function
switch control stalk has both nomenclature and
International Control and Display Symbol graphics
applied to it, which identify its many functions. An
International Control and Display Symbol icon for
ªHazard Warningº is applied to the top of the hazard
warning switch push button.
The switch housing and its controls are constructed
of molded black plastic. A single connector receptacle
with up to twenty-four terminals is located on the
back of the switch housing and connects the switch
to the vehicle electrical system through a take out
and connector of the instrument panel wire harness.
The connector receptacle also has a threaded recep-
tacle for a screw, which secures the wire harness con-
nector to the switch connector receptacle.
The multi-function switch supports the following
functions and features:

²Continuous Wipe Modes- The control knob of
the multi-function switch provides two continuous
wipe switch positions, low speed or high speed.
²Hazard Warning Control- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch pro-
vide detent switching for activation and deactivation
of the hazard warning system.
²Headlamp Beam Selection- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch pro-
vide detent switching for selection of the headlamp
high or low beams.
²Headlamp Optical Horn- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch
includes momentary switching of the headlamp high
beam circuits to provide an optical horn feature
(sometimes referred to as flash-to-pass), which allows
the vehicle operator to momentarily flash the head-
lamp high beams as an optical signalling device.
²Intermittent Wipe Mode- The control knob of
the multi-function switch provides an intermittent
wipe mode with multiple delay interval positions.
²Turn Signal Control- The internal circuitry
and hardware of the multi-function switch provide
both momentary non-detent switching and detent
switching with automatic cancellation for both the
left and right turn signals.
²Washer Mode- A button on the end of the con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch provides
washer system operation when the button is
depressed towards the steering column.
The multi-function switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If any function of the switch is faulty, or if
the switch is damaged, the entire switch unit must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The multi-function switch uses conventionally
switched outputs and a variable resistor to control
the many functions and features it provides using
hard wired circuitry. The switch is grounded at all
times through a single wire take out with an eyelet
terminal connector of the instrument panel wire har-
ness that is secured by a nut to a ground stud
located on the instrument panel armature, just above
and to the left of the glove box opening. When the
ignition switch is in the Accessory or On positions,
battery current from a fuse in the Junction Block
(JB) is provided through a fused ignition switch out-
put (run-acc) circuit. Following are descriptions of
how the multi-function switch operates to control the
many functions and features it provides:²Continuous Wipe Modes- When the control
knob of the multi-function switch is rotated to the
High or Low positions, the circuitry within the
switch provides a battery current output directly to
the high or low speed brush of the wiper motor.
When the control knob is in the Off position, the cir-
cuitry within the switch connects the output of the
wiper motor park switch to the low speed brush of
the wiper motor.
²Hazard Warning Control- The hazard warn-
ing push button is pushed down to unlatch the
switch and activate the hazard warning system, and
pushed down again to latch the switch and turn the
system off. When the hazard warning switch is
latched (hazard warning off), the push button will be
in a lowered position on the top of the steering col-
umn shroud; and, when the hazard warning switch is
unlatched (hazard warning on), the push button will
be in a raised position. The multi-function switch
hazard warning circuitry simultaneously provides a
signal to the hazard warning sense of the combina-
tion flasher to activate or deactivate the flasher out-
put, and directs the output of the flasher to the
hazard warning lamps.
²Headlamp Beam Selection- The multi-func-
tion switch control stalk is pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel past a detent, then released to actuate the
headlamp beam selection switch. Each time the con-
trol stalk is actuated in this manner, the opposite
headlamp mode from what is currently selected will
be activated. The internal circuitry of the headlamp
beam selection switch directs the output of the head-
lamp switch through hard wired circuitry to activate
the selected headlamp beam.
²Headlamp Optical Horn- The left multi-func-
tion switch control stalk is pulled towards the steer-
ing wheel to just before a detent, to momentarily
activate the headlamp high beams. The high beams
will remain illuminated until the control stalk is
released. The internal circuitry of the headlamp
beam selection switch provides a momentary ground
path to the headlamp high beams.
²Intermittent Wipe Mode- When the multi-
function switch control knob is rotated to the Delay
position, the circuitry within the switch connects the
output of the wiper motor relay to the low speed
brush of the wiper motor and provides a battery cur-
rent signal to the Central Timer Module (CTM). If
the Delay mode is selected, the control knob can then
be rotated to multiple minor detent positions, which
actuates a variable resistor within the switch and
provides a hard wired output to the CTM that sig-
nals the desired delay interval for the intermittent
wiper feature.

TURN SIGNAL CANCEL CAM
DESCRIPTION
The turn signal cancel cam is concealed within the
steering column below the steering wheel. The turn
signal cancel cam consists of two lobes that are inte-
gral to the lower surface of the clockspring rotor. The
clockspring mechanism provides turn signal cancella-
tion as well as a constant electrical connection
between the horn switch, driver airbag, speed control
switches, and remote radio switches on the steering
wheel and the instrument panel wire harness on the
steering column. The housing of the clockspring is
secured to the steering column and remains station-
ary. The rotor of the clockspring, including the turn
signal cancel cam lobes rotate with the steering
wheel.
The turn signal cancel cam is serviced as a unit
with the clockspring and cannot be repaired. If faulty
or damaged, the entire clockspring unit must be
replaced. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/RESTRAINTS/
CLOCKSPRING - REMOVAL).
OPERATION
The turn signal cancel cam has two lobes molded
into the lower surface of the clockspring rotor. When
the turn signals are activated by moving the multi-
function switch control stalk to a detent position, a
turn signal cancel actuator is extended from the
inside surface of the multi-function switch housing
toward the center of the steering column and the
turn signal cancel cam. When the steering wheel is
rotated during a turning maneuver, one of the two
turn signal cancel cam lobes will contact the turn sig-
nal cancel actuator. The cancel actuator latches
against the cancel cam rotation in the direction oppo-
site that which is signaled. In other words, if the left
turn signal detent is selected, the lobes of the cancel
cam will ratchet past the cancel actuator when the
steering wheel is rotated to the left, but will unlatch
the cancel actuator as the steering wheel rotates to
the right and returns to center, which will cancel the
turn signal event and release the control stalk from
the detent so it returns to the neutral Off position.
