When the ignition is switched on with the

sidelights also switched on, the relay is
energised, closing the internal contacts and
supplying current to the dipped beam circuit
via the resistor. This causes the dip filaments
in the headlights to be illuminated at one-sixth
dipped beam brightness. The relay winding is
earthed through the headlight main beam
filaments, so that the relay is de-energised
when the main beam is switched on.
