Functional description

The supply for all the courtesy lights arrives directly from the battery via the MAXIFUSE CENTR line of B5 via fuse F17 of junction unit B1 . The interior lights G10 (front) and G25 and G26 (rear) are switched on - depending on the positions of their internal switch - by an earth signal which is direct (permanently on) or timed. However, the lights on the doors (front left G51 , front right G52 , rear left G55 and rear right G56 ) only ever come on for a timed period. The timed period is managed by the special courtesy lights relay J42 , supplied directly by the battery via the line for maxifuse CENTR of B5 and protected by fuse F17 of junction unit B1 . The timed period is operated by the instrument panel E50 which sends the signal from pin 11 of connector B to pin 85 of timer J42 as soon as the signal that at least one of the doors is open is received at pins 14, 15, 16 or 17, respectively via switches N50 and N61 (pin 3 connector B), N55 and N56 (pin 3 connector A). The timing is interrupted when the ignition 'on' signal is received, which reaches the instrument E50 from the ignition-operated line (INT/A) of the panel - pin 15 of connector A of E50 - through fuse F1 of junction unit B1 . The timer starts again from the beginning if the door locks are locked/unlocked via the safety knob or the key activating the front locks; these signals reach the instrument E50 at pin 12 of connector B via the safety knob switches located in N50 (pin 1 connector A) and N51 (pin 1 connector A). The signals coming from devices N50-N51-N55-N56 are also used to operate the locking of the doors ( See E3040 CENTRAL LOCKING ) and for the management of the alarm system See E7015 ALARM . The device N50 also performs a safety function in the management of the automatic transmission ( See E7050 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ).
