Battery positive voltage is applied at all times to both the coil and switch sides of the LT/POS/LP and RT/POS/LP relays located in the rear fuse block. The turn signal/multifunction switch is suppled with ground at G200 at all times. When the headlamp switch is placed in either the HEAD or PARK position, ground is applied to the park lamp signal circuit to the body control module (BCM). The BCM responds by applying ground to the left and right park lamp relay control circuits. This energizes the left and right park lamp relay coils causing the relay switch contacts to close allowing battery voltage to flow through the LT/POS/LP and RT/POS/LP fuses to all of the park, tail, license, and marker lamps.
• | Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts. |
• | Park Lamps ON. |
DTC B2590 00 will set when the BCM detects a short to voltage in the left cornering lamp relay control circuit.
When DTC B2590 00 is present, the left cornering lamps will not operate.
• | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

⇒ | If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the B+ circuit fuse is open, test the control circuit terminal 87 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the LT/POS/LP relay. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
