Voltage is applied at all times to the PRK LAMP relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position, ground is applied through the park lamp switch ON signal circuit to the body control module (BCM) . The BCM then applies a ground to the park lamp relay control circuit. This energizes the relay and applies voltage through both PRK LAMP fuses and the park lamp supply voltage circuits illuminating the park, tail, and license lamps.
Voltage is applied at all times to the PRK LAMP relay and the RT PRK LAMP relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position, ground is applied through the park lamp switch signal circuit to the BCM. The BCM then applies a ground to both the park lamp relay control circuits. This energizes the relays and applies voltage through both PRK LAMP fuses and the park lamp supply voltage circuits illuminating the park, tail, and license lamps.
The ignition is ON. The park lamps must be commanded ON by the headlamp switch.
The BCM detects a short to voltage on the park lamp relay control circuit while trying to apply a ground to energize the relay.
The BCM turns off the park lamp relay control for the remainder of the ignition cycle.

Ignition ON, turn the headlamp switch to the park lamps ON position. Observe the scan tool Park Lamp Relay Command parameter. The reading should display On and the park lamps should illuminate.
Caution: The high intensity discharge system produces high voltage and current.
To reduce the risk of severe shocks and burns:
• Never open the high intensity discharge system ballast or the
arc tube assembly starter. • Never probe between the high intensity discharge system ballast
output connector and the arc tube assembly.

⇒ | 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. |
⇒ | If the resistance is not within the specified range, replace the relay. |

⇒ | If not the specified value, replace the relay. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, replace the relay. |
