Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, turn the reading lamps on and off. The reading lamps should turn on and off.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at an affected courtesy/reading lamp center.
- Test for less than 5 ohm between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the inadvertent power supply circuit terminal C and ground.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the inadvertent power supply circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal replace the BCM. |
- Connect the harness connector at the courtesy/reading lamp center, and remove the reading lamp bulb.
- Connect a test lamp across the bulb terminals.
- Turn the reading lamp switch on and off. The test lamp should turn on and off when changing between the commanded states.
⇒ | If the test lamp is always on, replace the affected courtesy/reading lamp center. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always off, replace the affected courtesy/reading lamp center. |
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the affected reading lamp bulb.
