Voltage is applied at all times to the park lamp relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position and the body control module (BCM) commands the park lamps ON, the BCM then applies a ground to the park lamp relay control circuit. This engages the relay and applies voltage through the park lamp fuses and to all the park, license, and tail lamps.
• | The Ignition is ON. |
• | The park lamps must be commanded ON by the BCM. |
When the BCM detects a short to voltage on the park lamp relay control circuit.
All park, license, and tail lamps are inoperative.
• | The conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present. |
• | A history DTC clears after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles. |
• | The BCM receives the clear code command from the scan tool. |

⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the relay control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the relay control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
