1996 Ford Bronco Headlamp Wiring Diagram - Headlights, DRL & Hi-Beam Indicator

1996 Ford Bronco headlamp wiring diagram showing the multifunction switch, daytime running lamps and grounds.

This document is a two-part factory-style wiring diagram (pages 85-1 and 85-2, "Headlamps") hand-labeled "96 Bronco." Page 85-1 traces headlamp power from a 30A fuse (position 3) in the engine compartment fuse box (hot at all times) through the main light switch (hot at all times) and the multi-function switch, which selects HI beam, LO beam, or Flash-to-Pass. Circuit 38 BK/O feeds through connectors C202M/C202F to circuit 196 DB/O; circuit 15 R/W feeds the multi-function switch via C273/C230. High-beam output is circuit 12 LG/BK (splice S154) and low-beam output is circuit 13 R/BK (splice S155), feeding the left headlamp (C1033) and right headlamp (C1034). Grounds run on circuit 57 BK through splices S103/S100 to grounds G100 and G101 (Grounds pages 10-1 and 10-2). Page 85-2 shows the high-beam indicator circuit: circuit 12 LG/BK from S154 either goes to the Daytime Running Lamps module (with DRL, page 97-1) or through the DRL jumper at C177 (without DRL), then as circuit 932 GY/W through C202M/C202F and C250 to the instrument cluster HI BEAM indicator (page 60-4), grounding via 57 BK through S202 to G201 (page 10-10). Reference pages for power distribution (13-16), switch testing (149-1, 149-3) are noted.

Frequently asked questions

What fuse powers the headlamps on a 1996 Ford Bronco?
Fuse 3, a 30A fuse in the engine compartment fuse box, which is hot at all times (see Power Distribution page 13-16).
What wire colors are used for the high and low beam circuits?
Circuit 12 LG/BK (light green/black) carries the HI or PASS signal and circuit 13 R/BK (red/black) carries the LO or PASS signal to the headlamps.
What connectors serve the left and right headlamps?
The left headlamp uses connector C1033 and the right headlamp uses connector C1034. Grounds are on circuit 57 BK to G100 (via S103) and G101 (via S100).
How does the high beam indicator in the instrument cluster get its signal?
Circuit 12 LG/BK from splice S154 goes either to the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) module (with DRL) or through the DRL jumper at connector C177 (without DRL), then continues as circuit 932 GY/W through C202M/C202F and C250 to the HI BEAM indicator in the instrument cluster (page 60-4), grounding through 57 BK, S202, to G201.
What does the multi-function switch do in this headlamp circuit?
The multi-function switch allows the driver to select HI beam, LO beam, or Flash-to-Pass functions; switch testing is covered on page 149-3.
