1. Daytime Running Lamps Malfunction |
Battery voltage from the DRL Fuse 15 (C4/C5) or Circuit Breaker 15 (C6/C7/C8) located in the I/P-1 fuse block, is supplied at all times through the DRL Diode to the switch side of the DRL Relay. Battery voltage from the GAUGES Fuse 10 (C4/C5) or Circuit Breaker 10 (C6/C7/C8) also located in the I/P-1 fuse block is applied to the coil side of the DRL Relay with the ignition in the ON position. With the ignition in the ON position, battery voltage from the AUX WIRE Fuse 5 (C4/C5) or Circuit Breaker 5 (C6/C7/C8) located in the I/P-1 fuse block is applied to the DRL module. If the module senses that the park brake is not applied and the headlamps are OFF, it provides a path to ground to the coil side of the DRL relay energizing the relay. With the relay energized, battery from the DRL diode is applied through the switch side of the relay and the headlamp low beam supply voltage circuit illuminating the left and right low beam headlamps at a low intensity. If the DRL module senses that the park brake is applied or the headlamps are turned ON, it will cancel DRL operation.

⇒ | If the low beam headllamps do not illuminate, refer to Headlamps Malfunction. |
⇒ | If the park brake indicator is illuminated, refer to Brake Warning Indicator Malfunction. |
⇒ | If the DRLs do not illuminate, refer to Daytime Running Lamps Malfunction. |
⇒ | If the DRLs illuminate, but the DRL indicator does not illuminate, refer to Daytime Running Lamps Indicator Malfunction. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit test normal, test or replace the DRL relay. |
⇒ | If the DRL do not illuminate, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace DRL relay. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. |
