This document is a connector pinout reference for connector C2032, the headlamp switch, on a Ford vehicle equipped with auto lamps (as noted by the asterisk legend '* WITH AUTO LAMPS'). It shows a diagram of the switch connector with pin cavity positions 2 through 7 (pin 3 is blacked out/not used) along with the circuit numbers and wire colors attached to each pin. A table below the diagram lists each pin's circuit number, wire color, and function: pin 2 carries circuit 434 (light blue/black) as the Integrated Control Panel (ICP) feed; pin 3 is not used; pin 4 carries circuit 57 (black) as ground; pin 5 carries circuit 1045 (dark blue/white) for instrument illumination; pin 6 carries circuit 15 (red/yellow) as the multi-function switch feed, or with auto lamps, the auto lamp headlamp relay output; and pin 7 carries two circuit 196 (dark blue/orange) wires providing power that is hot at all times. A reader can use this to identify wires at the headlamp switch connector for diagnosis of headlight, interior illumination, or auto lamp problems.
