The indicators are controlled from the steering column switch and operate when the ignition switch is in position "II". The hazard lamp switch is located towards the right hand side of the dash panel. Hazard operation is not dependent on the position of the ignition switch. When the hazard switch is depressed, both left and right hand indicator lights flash.
Operation
Feed from the positive battery terminal is connected to the engine compartment fuse box (C632-1) by a brown wire. Power flows through fusible link 2 (C907-2) and feeds both the ignition switch (C028-1) and fuse 1 (C580-1) of the passenger compartment fuse box on brown wires. The ignition switch and the fuse 1 of the passenger compartment fuse box are connected in parallel. Fuse 1 (C580-2) is connected to the hazard warning lamp switch (C096-7) by a purple wire.
Indicators
With the ignition switch in position "II", power flows across the ignition switch (C094-1) to fuse 3 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C580-5) by a white wire. Fuse 3 of the passenger compartment fuse box (C580-6) is connected to the hazard warning switch (C096-8) by a green wire. With the hazard warning switch in the off position, power flows through the switch (C096-5) and up to the flasher unit (C547-85) on a light green wire. The flasher unit is earthed (C547-86) on a black wire. With the flasher unit energized, a feed (C547-87) is sent to the column switch (C036-3) on a green/brown wire.
Left Turn
Moving the column switch to the left turn position allows power to flow through the switch (C036-4) to the LH rear direction indicator lamp (C403-2), the LH front direction indicator lamp (C001-2), and the LH side repeater lamp (C013-1 These 3 lamps are connected in parallel and are all fed by green/red wires. Power is also supplied to the instrument pack warning lamp (C230-10) on a green/red wire. All lamps are earthed on black wires. With the circuit complete, the flasher unit commences opening and closing the circuit, causing the LH indicator lamps to flash.
Right Turn
Moving the column switch to the right turn position allows power to flow through the switch (C036-2) to the RH rear direction indicator lamp (C402-2), the RH front direction indicator lamp (C002-2), and the RH side repeater lamp (C012-1 These 3 lamps are connected in parallel and are all fed by green/white wires. Power is also supplied to the instrument pack warning lamp (C230-9) on a green/white wire. All lamps are earthed on black wires. With the circuit complete, the flasher unit commences opening and closing the circuit, causing the RH indicator lamps to flash.
Hazards
The hazard warning switch (C096-7) is supplied with a permanent feed from fuse 1 (C580-2) of the passenger compartment fuse box on a purple wire. Pressing the switch to the on position allows power to flow through the switch (C096-5) to the flasher unit (C547-85) on a light green wire. The flasher unit (C547-87) is connected to the following via the hazard warning switch (C096-2).
- Hazard warning lamp tell tale (C913-1) by a brown/red wire.
- RH front direction indicator lamp (C002-2) by a green/white wire.
- RH rear direction indicator lamp (C402-2) by a green/white wire.
- Instrument pack RH indicator warning lamp (C230-9) by a green/white wire.
- LH front direction indicator lamp (C001-2) by a green/red wire.
- LH rear direction indicator lamp (C403-2) by a green/red wire.
- Instrument pack LH indicator warning lamp (C230-10) by a green/red wire.
With the flasher unit energized, the circuit is repeatedly open and closed, causing all indicator lamps to flash.
