Hyundai Genesis: Lighting System / Head Lamps Description and Operation
1. |
Bulb
(1) |
Elements
Xenon gas: Xenon gas activates the initial reaction to.
Molybdenum electrode : anode arc discharge
Metal halide salts: color composing component |
(2) |
Lightening principle
When Xenon gas and metal halide salt will discharge the molybdenum anode in a capsule, it emits light. |
|
2. |
Ignitor
Ignitor (A) is an electromagnetic transformer that receives
current from ballast and boost voltage to turn on the arc light source
in any environment. ![](images/head_lamps_description_and_operation-1050/1/sdhbe4239d.gif)
|
3. |
Ballast
(1) |
Ballast (A) delivers an instant high voltage pulse to the ignitor electrode, to initialize discharge in the source. |
(2) |
Ballast supplies the stable power to the bulb and the ignitor during initialization and normal state of arc. ![](images/head_lamps_description_and_operation-1050/1/sdhbe4240d.gif)

BI-FUNCTION
(1) |
Definition
A. |
A headlamp with integrated functions of high and low beam. |
B. |
The light is controlled by rotating the shield inserted to the lens (A solenoid is adopted) |

Structure and mechanism
A. |
In case of working as a low beam
: Only the low beam illuminates as the stopped shield blocks off the light. ![](images/head_lamps_description_and_operation-1050/1/sdhbe4188n.gif)
|
B. |
In case of working as a high beam
: The light is not blocked off by the open shield so the light illuminates in the high beam area. ![](images/head_lamps_description_and_operation-1050/1/sdhbe4187n.gif)

Description
An in-car air temperature sensor is located in the crash pad lower panel.
The sensor contains a thermistor which measures the
temperature of the cabin. The signal determined by the resistance value
which changes in accordance with perceived inside temperature, is
delivered to t ...
