BRAKE AND REVERSE LAMPS

DESCRIPTION Brake Lamps

Three brake lamps are fitted to the rear of the vehicle. Two brake lamps are mounted above the rear bumper, and share a dual filament bulb with the tail lamps. A third, high mounted tail lamp is housed within a casting mounted on the tail door above the spare wheel. NOTE: NAS vehicles are also fitted with a second pair of brake lamp bulbs. These operate in conjunction with the normal brake lamp bulbs. These secondary bulbs are also used as fog lamps. For more information of fog lamp operation, refer to the 'Fog Lamps' section of this manual.

The brake lamps are operated by the brake pedal switch, which is mounted on the pedal box, and will only operate when the ignition switch is in the 'ignition' position.

The brake lamps will also operate without operation of the brake pedal. If Hill Descent Control (HDC) is engaged, ABS ECU will operate the brake lamps, responding from signals from the ABS modulator.

For more details of HDC, refer to the Brakes section of the Workshop manual. For more information on ABS operation, refer to the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) – 01MY , or Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) – 02MY section of this manual. + ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) – 01MY. + ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM (ABS) – 02MY.

Reverse Lamps

The reverse lamps are incorporated into the tail lamp units, and will only operate when the ignition switch is in the 'ignition' position, and reverse gear is selected.

OPERATION General

Feed from the positive battery terminal (C0192) is supplied to fusible link 3 of the engine compartment fuse box (C0632) on an R wire. Fusible link 3 (C0571) is connected to the ignition switch (C0028) by an N wire. When the ignition switch is turned to the 'ignition' position, current flows across the switch (C0028) to fuse 2 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0588) on an NW wire.

Fuse 2 (C0580) provides an ignition feed to the following on G wires: The reverse lamp relay (C0935) (automatic transmission vehicles only). The brake pedal switch (C0075).

Fuse 2 (C0581) also provides an ignition feed to the reverse lamp switch (C0163) (K1.8 and Td4 manual transmission vehicles only) on a G wire.

Brake Lamps

The brake pedal switch (C0075) is provided an ignition feed from fuse 2 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0580) on a G wire. When the brake pedal is pressed, current flows across the switch (C0075) to the following on GP wires: The RH brake lamp (C0125). The RH brake lamp (C0489) (NAS vehicles only). The LH brake lamp (C0121). The LH brake lamp (C0490) (NAS vehicles only). The Centre High Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) (C0613). The trailer pick-up (C0499) (GP then R wire). The ABS ECU (C0500) (01MY vehicles). The ABS ECU (C0501) (02MY vehicles).

All brake lamps are earthed on a B wire. The trailer pick-up is earthed on a W then B wire NOTE: The brake pedal switch (C0075) provides a second feed to the ABS ECU on a GR wire. For more information on ABS operation, refer to the 'Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) – 01MY' or 'Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) – 02MY' section of this manual.

Reverse Lamps Manual Transmission

Fuse 2 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C0581) provides an ignition feed to the reverse lamp switch (C0163) on a G wire. When reverse gear is selected, current flows across the switch (C0166 on K1.8 vehicles, C0163 on Td4 vehicles) to the RH (C0455) and LH (C0472) reverse lamps on GN wires. Both lamps are earthed on B wires.
