Normal Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2005 Ford Explorer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The stoplamp switch is supplied battery voltage through circuit 10 (LG/RD). When the brake pedal is applied, the stoplamp switch routes voltage through circuit 1052 (TN/BK). Circuit 1052 (TN/BK) is spliced to circuit 511 (LG) which supplies power directly to the multifunction switch and to circuit 569 (DG) which supplies power to the high mounted stoplamp. The multifunction switch internally splits the power (when in the neutral position) to circuits 374 (DB/WH) (LH stoplamps) and 378 (BN/YE) (RH stoplamps). Circuits 374 (DB/WH) and 378 (BN/YE) supply power to the LH and RH stoplamps accordingly.
