Circuit Description
The body control module (BCM) activates the parklamp relay when the light senses
a dark condition and when circuit 74 is active. Battery voltage is supplied to the
parklamp relay through the fuse circuit located in the UHFB. The BCM provides ground
to circuit 1080 to activate the parklamp relay for two conditions if the headlamp
switch is moved to the parklamp position and if in the ALC mode. If the parklamp relay
control circuit 1080 is shorted to battery DTC B2588 will fail.
Conditions for setting the DTC
- Parklamp relay is commanded ON.
- Short to battery
- Ignition is in RUN.
- Condition is present for 1 seconds.
- No light will illuminate in the instrument panel (I/P).
Diagnostic Aids
• | Check for poor connection at the BCM. Inspect harness connectors for backed-out
terminals, improper terminal mating, broken connector locks, improperly formed or
damaged terminals and poor terminal-to-wire connection - terminal crimped over
wire insulation and not conductors. |
• | Inspect wiring harness for damage. Inspect for broken or chaffed insulation. |
• | If fault is suspected to be intermittent, wiggling the harness wiring
may help in locating fault. |
