HEADLAMP HIGH BEAM
RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp high beam relay is located in the
Junction Block (JB) on the driver side outboard end
of the instrument panel in the passenger compart-
ment of the vehicle. The headlamp high beam relay
is omitted from vehicles manufactured for sale in
Canada, which have a Daytime Running Lamp (DRL)
solid state relay installed in the JB that also per-forms the function of the headlamp high beam relay.
The headlamp high beam relay is a conventional
International Standards Organization (ISO) micro
relay (Fig. 28). Relays conforming to the ISO specifi-
cations have common physical dimensions, current
capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal functions.
The relay is contained within a small, rectangular,
molded plastic housing and is connected to all of the
required inputs and outputs by five integral male
spade-type terminals that extend from the bottom of
the relay base.
The headlamp high beam relay cannot be adjusted
or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The headlamp high beam relay is an electrome-
chanical switch that uses a low current input from
the Body Control Module (BCM) to control a high
current output to the headlamp high beam filaments.
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 is connected in parallel with
the relay coil in the relay, and helps to dissipate volt-
age spikes and electromagnetic interference that can
be generated as the electromagnetic field of the relay
coil collapses.
The headlamp high beam relay terminals are con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a con-
nector receptacle in the Junction Block (JB). The
inputs and outputs of the headlamp high beam relay
include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the Power Distribution Center (PDC)
through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) receives battery current at all times from a
fuse in the PDC through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) is connected to a control output of the
Body Control Module (BCM) and to the momentary
optical horn (flash-to-pass) output of the multi-func-
tion switch through a high beam relay control circuit.
The BCM and/or the multi-function switch controls
headlamp high beam operation by controlling a
ground path through this circuit.

PERSONAL INJURY.
(1) Position the headlamp high beam relay to the
proper receptacle in the Junction Block (JB) (Fig. 30).
(2) Align the headlamp high beam relay terminals
with the terminal cavities in the JB receptacle.
(3) Push firmly and evenly on the top of the head-
lamp high beam relay until the terminals are fully
seated in the terminal cavities in the JB receptacle.

HEADLAMP LEVELING MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp leveling motor is located on the rear
inboard side of each headlamp unit on models
equipped with the headlamp leveling system, which
is available only in certain markets where required
(Fig. 31). The motor is encased within a molded plas-
tic housing and is secured by an integral wedge-type
mounting boss on its forward surface to a flanged
receptacle on the back of the headlamp unit housing.
A rubber seal around the circumference of the
mounting boss is compressed and seals the motor to
the headlamp unit when the boss is properly
installed in the flanged receptacle. The outside of the
motor housing features an integral molded connector
receptacle on its rearward surface, a hex-headed
adjusting screw extends from the top of the housing,
and a plastic pushrod with a ball formation on its
free end extends from the center of the mounting
boss at the front. Within the motor housing is a
12-volt Direct Current (DC) servo motor, an elec-
tronic controller board that includes the motor logic
circuits, and an integral screw-drive transmission.
The headlamp leveling motor is connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the front fascia wire harness.
The headlamp leveling motor cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be replaced.

GEAR
DESCRIPTION
A rack and pinion steering gear (Fig. 1) is made up
of two main components, the pinon shaft and the
rack. The gear cannot be adjusted or internally ser-
viced. If a malfunction or a fluid leak occurs, the gear
must be replaced as an assembly.
OPERATION
The steering column intermediate shaft is attached
to the gear pinion. The rotation of the pinion moves
the gear rack from side-to-side. This lateral action of
the rack pushes and pulls the tie rods, which are
connected to the steering knuckles to change the
direction of the front wheels.
