Normal Operation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Lincoln Mark LT and 2007 Ford Pickup. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The dimmer switch (part of the headlamp switch) sends a variable pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage to the instrument cluster through circuit 19 (LB/RD). The instrument cluster is grounded through circuit 57 (BK).
