Headlight Switches

Headlight Switches

Plug Type

The connector used for the headlight switch are known as a 090 Connector, originally manufactured by Yazaki:

Name Product Number Notes
Female Housing 7123-1210 Loom end connector
Male Housing 7122-1210 Switch housing end connector
Female Terminal 7116-1180 brass insert for female housing, suited for 0.3/0.5mm2 wire
Female Terminal 7116-1181 brass insert for female housing, suited for 0.85/1.25mm2 wire
Male Terminal 7114-1170 brass insert for male housing, suited for 0.3/0.5mm2 wire
Male Terminal 7114-1171 brass insert for male housing, suited for 0.85/1.25mm2 wire

Information Sources:

Variations

There is a variation between the base model unit and the high model units in terms of wiring, beyond the expected low amount of difference expected from the 1 additional control.

Pin layout

The following notes assume pin numbers where you are looking at the switch unit itself, with the clip cut-out facing up and the 2 pin section of the top row to the left:

01 02 -- -- 03 04 05
06 07 08 09 10 11 12

Low unit pins

Information incomplete due to testing outside of vehicle

High unit pins

Information is particularly incomplete here due to lack of a high model AU to discern wiring minutiae

Pin Function Notes
01 Illumination - assumed
02 Illumination + assumed
03 Additional? if Delay switch off and Headlights set to HIGH, has continuity to pin 12. if Delay switch off and Headlights set to LOW, has continuity to pin 09
04 Delay? if Delay switch off, has continuity to pin 05
05 Delay? if Delay switch off, has continuity to pin 04
06 GND/SIG?  
07 Dome Light 1 equivalent to Dome Light 2 in Low Models
08 UNKNOWN No continuity found
09 Additional? If delay switch off and Headlights set to LOW, has continuity to pin 03
10 Dome Light 0 equivalent to Dome Light 1 in Low Models
11 UNKNOWN No continuity found
12 If delay switch off and Headlights set to HIGH, has continuity to pin 03
