Voltage for the interior backlighting components is supplied from the body control module (BCM). The BCM applies a voltage reference through the 12-volt reference circuit to the headlamp and panel dimmer switch. When the dimming switch is placed in the desired position, the dimmed voltage setting is applied from the headlamp and panel dimmer switch through the instrument panel (I/P) lamp dimmer switch signal circuit to the BCM. The BCM then applies the dimmed voltage to the lamp supply voltage circuits and they are dimmed to the correct level.
The ignition is ON.
The BCM detects a voltage that is lower than 0.10 volt on the I/P lamp dimmer switch signal circuit.
The BCM detects a voltage that is higher than 4.97 volts on the I/P lamp dimmer switch signal circuit.
The I/P lamps are not illuminated.
The BCM clears this code from current when the fault is removed from the system.

Ignition ON, headlamp switch to HEAD, vary the interior lamp dimming switch from dim to full bright. The I/P lamps should dim and then become full bright.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 13 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified value, test the voltage reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
