Circuit Description

The body control module (PZM) commands the high beams through a discrete output to the high/low beam headlamp control relay. When the headlamps relay is energized the high/low beam headlamp control relay provides a power source to either the low beams or the high beams.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The commanded state of the high beams does not match the feedback state.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The PZM continues to command the state requested until the state is achieved or the request has changed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The commanded state matches the feedback state.
