DTC Descriptor
DTC B2585 00
- Left Parklamp Control Circuit

Diagnostic Fault Information





Circuit/System Description

All Countries Except Japan, Korea, Taiwan

Voltage is applied at all times to the PRK LAMP relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position, ground is applied through the park lamp switch ON signal circuit to the body control module (BCM). The BCM then applies a ground to the park lamp relay control circuit. This energizes the relay and applies voltage through both PRK LAMP fuses and the park lamp supply voltage circuits illuminating the park, tail, and license lamps.

Japan, Korea, Taiwan Only

Voltage is applied at all times to the PRK LAMP relay and the RT PRK LAMP relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position, ground is applied through the park lamp switch signal circuit to the BCM. The BCM then applies a ground to both the park lamp relay control circuits. This energizes the relays and applies voltage through both PRK LAMP fuses and the park lamp supply voltage circuits illuminating the park, tail, and license lamps.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.
* Park lamps ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

DTC B2585 00 will set when the BCM detects a short to voltage in the park lamp relay control circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

When DTC B2585 00 is present, the park lamps will not operate.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, remove the appropriate PRK LAMP Relay or RT PRK LAMP relay from the rear fuse block.
2. Connect a test lamp between B+ and the appropriate control circuit terminal listed below.

* Control terminal 101
* Control terminal 92 - Japan, Korea, Taiwan only

3. Ignition ON, command the Parking Lamps ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

4. If the circuit tests normal, test or replace the park lamp relay.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.

* Relay Replacement (Service and Repair)
* Control Module References (Programming and Relearning)for BCM replacement, setup, and programming
