Important: If you disconnect either side high beam headlight with the ignition ON, the headlights will not operate when you reconnect the connector until you cycle the key.
Symptom | Procedure |
---|---|
The low beam headlights are inoperative. The high beam headlights are OK. | Disconnect the headlight/turn switch connector. Probe circuit 1201 BLU with a test lamp-to-ground. Does the lamp light? If yes, there is a faulty headlight/turn switch. If no, there is an open circuit 1201. |
The high beam headlights are inoperative. The low beam headlights are OK. | Disconnect the headlight/turn switch connector. Probe circuit 1200 PNK with a test lamp-to-ground. Does the lamp light? If yes, there is a faulty headlight/turn switch. If no, there is an open circuit 1200. |
The high and low beam headlights are inoperative. | Check circuit 550 at the headlight switch for an open. If OK, there is a faulty headlight switch. |
The high beam indicator does not operate. | Cluster test using the Tech 2. If the high beam indicator does not work with the cluster test, there is a faulty cluster. Refer to the I/P section of this service manual. |
The right high beam headlight and DRL are inoperative. | Check the right high beam headlight for an open element. If OK, check for an open circuit 593 or 1200 circuit. |
The left high beam headlight and DRL are inoperative. | Check the left high beam headlight for an open element. If OK, check for open circuit 40 or open circuit 1200. |

The DRL is ON with the headlight switch ON, and the dimmer switch is in the low position. | Using the scan tool, observe the high beam input. If the voltage is between 6-8 volts, disconnect the BCM connector J3 (PNK 24 way) using a DVOM. Check CKT 592, BLK/GRN wire, for a short to ground. If OK, there is a faulty BCM. |
The DRL is inoperative. The high beam indicator is ON with the headlight switch in any position. | Disconnect the BCM connector J1. Probe circuit 1200 with a test lamp to B+. Turn the headlight switch ON, with the dimmer switch in the high beam position. Does the lamp light? If no, there is an open circuit 1200. If yes, there is a faulty connection or BCM. |
The DRL lamps do not turn OFF with the park brake applied. | Disconnect the BCM connector J2. Probe circuit 1134 with a test lamp to B+. Apply the parking brake. Does the lamp light? If no, there is an open circuit 1134. If yes, there is a faulty connection or BCM. |
