Construction

Operation

Operation due to brake pedal operation
1. When the brake pedal is depressed, the brake switch (No.1 signal) turns on.
2. When the brake switch (No.1 signal) turns on, a brake switch (No.1 signal) on signal is input to the brake light unit.
3. When the brake light unit receives a brake switch (No.1 signal) on signal, it supplies current to the brake lights and high-mount brake light.
4. The brake lights and high-mount brake light turn on.

Operation due to operation request signal from rear body control module (RBCM)

NOTE:

1. When the operation conditions are met, the rear body control module (RBCM) turns on the transistor inside the rear body control module (RBCM).
2. When the transistor inside the rear body control module (RBCM) turns on, the transistor inside the brake light unit turns on.
3. When the transistor inside the brake light unit turns on, current flows to the brake lights and high-mount brake light.
4. The brake lights and high-mount brake light turn on.
