Go to Headlamps Inoperative - Low Beams

Are all of the park lamps inoperative?

Go to Step 7

Go to Step 5

1. Disconnect the inoperative park lamp.
2. Connect a test lamp between the park lamp supply voltage circuit and a good ground.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 6

Go to Step 22

Connect a test lamp between the supply voltage circuit of the inoperative park lamp and the ground circuit of the inoperative park lamp.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 20

Go to Step 23

With a scan tool, observe the Park Lamp parameter in the dash integration module (DIM) inputs data list.

Does the scan tool indicate that the Park Lamp parameter is ON?

Go to Step 8

Go to Step 13

1. Place the headlamp switch in the OFF position.
2. With a scan tool, select the Parking Lamps Relay from the DIM Special Functions Output Controls.
3. Command the PRK LP relay ON and OFF.

Do you hear a click when you command the PRK LP relay ON and OFF?

Go to Step 11

Go to Step 9

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Disconnect the PRK LP relay.

4. Connect a test lamp between the battery positive voltage circuit of the PRK LP relay switch and a good ground.

Does the test lamp illuminate?

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 21

Connect a 15-amp fused jumper between the battery positive voltage circuit of the PRK LP relay switch and the park lamp supply voltage circuit.

Do the park lamps illuminate?

Go to Step 17

Go to Step 22

1. Turn OFF the ignition.
2. Disconnect the headlamp switch.
3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
4. Connect a 3-amp fused jumper between the park lamps on signal circuit and a good ground.
5. With a scan tool, observe the Park Lamp parameter.

Does the scan tool indicate that the Park Lamp parameter is ON?
