HEADLAMP — Daytime Light System — Operation + Schematic (Base K11)
EL-43wiring diagramUnverifiedBase K11 HEADLAMP — Daytime Light System operation table + DRL schematic (UEL048). DRL CU senses engine-running (alternator L) and auto-turns-on low beam + clearance/tail + licence/instrument when switch OFF + running (boxed 'added functions' column). Schematic wire colours illegible → ??.
Operation
After starting the engine with the lighting switch in the 'OFF' position, the headlamp low beam and clearance, tail, license and instrument illumination lamps automatically turn on. Lighting switch operations other than the above are the same as conventional light systems.

NOTE
Legend: O = Lamp ON, X = Lamp OFF. Boxed cells (Running + OFF column) = added DRL functions. The DRL adds: with engine running and switch OFF, low beam + clearance/tail + license/instrument lamps come ON automatically (the boxed column). All other switch operations match conventional lighting.

NOTE
The Daytime Running Light Control Unit senses engine-running via the alternator charge/L line and, when the lighting switch is OFF, automatically energizes low beam + clearance/tail + licence/instrument lamps. Schematic wire colours are not individually legible at this raster resolution (marked ?? per never-guess rule). Lighting-switch continuity grid (terminals 5-12) at top right matches EL-40.
