B12A6-19
B12A6-19-RIGHT DRL - OVER CURRENT
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Theory of Operation
Vehicles with the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) feature enabled illuminate the Park/DRL Lamp Bulbs in the upper cavity of the two front lamp units when the engine is running, the parking brake is released, the headlamps are turned OFF, and the optional automatic transmission gear selector lever is in any position except PARK. The park lamps may be ON or OFF for DRL to operate. For vehicles with a manual transmission, the DRL will operate in any transmission gear selector lever position. The BCM must be programmed appropriately for this feature to be enabled. For additional information on the DRL operation, Exterior Lamps - Operation.
- When Monitored:
With the DRL active.
- Set Condition:
When the Body Control Module (BCM) detects a low condition on the Right Daytime Running Lamp Driver circuit.
1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)
1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Test complete, the condition or conditions that originally set this DTC are not present at this time. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide, check all related splices and connectors for signs of water intrusion, corrosion, pushed out or bent terminals, and correct pin tension.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
2. ATTEMPT TO SET THE OPPOSITE DTC
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Right Front Park/Turn Lamp harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. Actuate the DRL
5. With the scan tool, read DTCs.
Does the scan tool display DTC: B12A6-13-RIGHT DRL - CIRCUIT OPEN?
Yes
- Replace the Right Park/DRL Bulb. Service and Repair.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To 3
3. CHECK THE (L59) RIGHT DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the BCM C1 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance between ground and the (L59) Right Daytime Running Lamp Driver circuit.
Is the resistance above 10K Ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Body Control Module (BCM). Body Control Module - Removal.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
No
- Repair the short to ground in the (L59) Right Daytime Running Lamp Driver circuit.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test.
