GENERAL INFORMATION (Continued)
ning light functions (for Canadian vehicles), and has
been designed with internal relays to take advantage
of low current switching requirements in the vehicle.
It is plugged into the junction block at positions
three and four (Fig. 1), where all wiring associated
with its operation is terminated. The junction block
is adjacent to and left of the steering column of the
vehicle. For diagnostic information refer to Group 8J,
Turn Signal and Flashers.
On vehicles built for use in the United States, only
position four is used. Vehicles built for use in Canada
utilize both positions three and four.
To gain access to the device, remove the lower
steering column cover and knee blocker. Refer to
Group 8E, Instrument Panel and Gauges.

SYSTEM FUNCTION
The combination-flasher/DRL may be operated in
its hazard warning mode either with or without the
ignition circuit being active. However, in order to
operate in the turn signal mode or the DRL mode,
the ignition circuit must be completed to the module.
While the combination-flasher portion is idle, there
is no current drawn through the module. The device
does not become active in the turn signal or hazard
warning modes until a signal ground circuit is sup-
plied to either of the turn signal inputs or the hazard
warning input. With the ignition OFF, there is no
current drawn through the module.
While the ignition is ON, the front turn signal fil-
aments are illuminated steadily thus providing the
DRL function. The DRL function may be inhibited by
applying a signal ground input from either the park
brake circuit or the headlamp relay activation circuit.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES
When a vehicle experiences problems with the
headlamp system, verify the condition of the battery
connections, charging system, headlamp bulbs, wire
connectors, relay, high beam dimmer switch and
headlamp switch. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams, for component locations and circuit informa-
tion.
