The body control module (BCM) controls the DRL relay. The BCM grounds the DRL relay coil control circuit, which energizes the DRL relay.
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B2602 DRL Control Circuit Low
The BCM must not be commanding the DRL relay to energize.
• | The BCM detects a short to ground or open in the DRL relay coil control circuit. |
• | The condition above must be present for more than 0.3 seconds. |
The BCM stores DTC B2602 in memory.
• | A current DTC B2602 will clear if the BCM no longer detects a short to ground or open in the DRL relay coil control circuit. |
• | A history DTC B2602 will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present. |
• | If the DTC B2602 is a history DTC, the fault may be intermittent. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems. |
• | The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction to occur: |
- | An intermittent short to ground or open in the DRL relay coil control circuit |
- | The DRL relay coil is intermittently shorted to ground or open internally. |
- | The BCM is intermittently shorted to ground or open internally. |
