Headlamp Delay System - Autolamp

The autolamp system

1. provides light sensitive on-off control of the lamps normally controlled by the headlamp switch.
2. provides increased visibility for occupants when leaving the vehicle by keeping the lamps on for approximately 20 seconds after the ignition switch is turned off.

The system consists of

1. a light sensor amplifier
2. a lighting control module (LCM)
3. the headlamp switch

For the autolamp system to be operational, the headlamp switch must be rotated to the AUTO position.

In normal operation

1. The system will turn the exterior lamps on when the light available to the light sensor amplifier decreases below a predetermined level, such as at sunset.
2. The lamps will automatically turn off when the level of outside light exceeds a predetermined level, such as during daylight hours.

The light sensor amplifier must always be exposed to outside light to function correctly. Do not place any items on the defroster grille panel which may block light to the light sensor amplifier and cause erratic operation of the system.

Turning the headlamp switch to any other position will override the autolamps operation. Automatic operation will not be possible until the headlamp switch is turned to the AUTO position.

Headlamp Aiming

1. The headlamp aiming procedure depends on what type of beam pattern the headlamp is equipped with. Vehicles may come equipped with visual optical left (VOL), visual optical right (VOR) or SAE only (includes sealed beam type) headlamps. To identify the headlamp beam pattern, look on the headlamp lens. Molded in small letters on the headlamp lens is one of the following: SAE VOL and SAE VOR and SAE
2. Once the headlamp beam pattern is identified, aim the headlamps using one of the following methods as applicable. Photometric aimers can aim VOL, VOR and SAE-type headlamps only. This is the preferred method of headlamp aiming. Visual or screen method aiming can be used to aim VOL, VOR and SAE-type headlamps only. Mechanical aimers cannot be used with VOR or VOL-type headlamps. Aerodynamic lamps that can be aimed mechanically have three nibs molded into the lens of the lamp.

Photometric Aiming

1. For the photometric aiming procedure, refer to the appropriate photometric headlamp aimer instruction manual.

Screen Method Aiming

Note. Horizontal aim is not necessary for VOL or VOR headlamps.

Note. Consult your state vehicle inspection manual for recommended tolerance ranges for visual aiming.

Note. The sight shield may need to be positioned or removed for access to the adjusters.

1. Before starting headlamp adjustment: check the tire inflation. check that no other load is in the vehicle other than a half tank of fuel. check that the headlamps are clean. check for correct headlamp operation. check that the vehicle is on level ground. if the vehicle is equipped with air suspension, make sure that the switch is on.
2. Park the vehicle on a level surface approximately 7.6 meters (25 feet) from the vertical wall or screen directly in front of it.
3. Mark a horizontal reference line on the vertical wall or screen.

Scheme 76

Scheme 77

1. Measure the center of the headlamp height to ground and record the measurement.
2. Make a 2.4 meter (8 foot) horizontal mark (using masking tape) on the vertical wall or screen at the same distance from the ground as previously recorded.
3. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and open the hood.
4. On the wall or screen, locate the high intensity area of the beam pattern. Place the top edge of the high intensity zone even with the horizontal reference line.
5. In addition to the horizontal line marked in Step 3, a pair of vertical lines must be marked at the center line of the headlamps on the wall or screen. Mark the center line of the vehicle on the wall or screen. Measure from the center of the headlamp to the center line of the vehicle. Make two 1.5 meter (5 foot) vertical marks (using masking tape) on the wall or screen at the same distance from the vehicle center line as previously recorded.
6. On the wall or screen, locate the high intensity area of the beam pattern. Place the left edge of the high intensity zone even with the vertical line corresponding to the headlamp being adjusted.
7. Identify at the top edge of this high intensity area a distinct horizontal cutoff in the beam pattern. If the top edge of this cutoff is not even with the horizontal reference line, the headlamp beam needs to be adjusted.
8. For VOL-type headlamps, there is a distinct cutoff in the left portion of the beam pattern. The edge of this cutoff should be positioned 50.2 mm (2 in) below the horizontal reference line. Horizontal reference line. Top edge of the beam pattern. High intensity zone.
