Description

Safety Indicator System:
LEDs are used to indicate when the trunk lid, engine compartment lid, a door, or the roof is not latched, or when a brake
light is faulty, or when the roof is not stored or improperly stored in its holder. The LEDs will go on and stay on for about
two seconds after the ignition switch has been turned ON (II) to show that the system circuit is functioning.
Brake Light Bulb Failure Indicator:
If all brake light bulbs are OK, the indicator light stays off because the ORN/WHT wire is grounded by the two brake light
failure sensors connected in series. With the brake lights off, the ground is provided through the diode, the failure sensor
relay coils, and bulb filaments. With the brake light on, all four relays (two in the left sensor, two in the right sensor), con-
nected in series, supply ground. If any of the four bulbs is not working, the chain is broken and the ORN/WHT wire is not
longer grounded. The indicator light comes on.
