HEADLIGHT HIGH-BEAM INDICATOR LIGHT
Purpose
The headlight high-beam indicator light notifies the driver that the headlights HI are turned on.
Function
When the instrument cluster receives the headlight HI signal sent from the BCM via CAN communication, it turns the headlight high-beam indicator light on.
Construction
Operation
When the light switch is moved to any of the following positions, the start stop unit sends (1) a headlight HI signal to the BCM via CAN communication.
Light switch at HEAD position and dimmer switch at HI position
Dimmer switch at FLASH-TO-PASS position
When the BCM receives the headlight HI signal with the ignition switched ON (engine off or on), it sends (2) a headlight HI signal to the instrument cluster.
The instrument cluster turns the transistor on (3) based on the headlight HI signal.
When the transistor turns on, a ground circuit with the headlight high-beam indicator light is established, and the headlight high-beam indicator light turns on (4).
