DTC Descriptor
DTC B2662 05
- Parking Lamps Switch Circuit Open or High Voltage




Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The headlamp switch is supplied with voltage from the instrument panel cluster (IPC) by two signal circuits, the headlamp signal circuit and the park lamp signal circuit. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position, the park lamp signal circuit is provided with ground through the switch contacts of the park lamp switch to a common headlamp switch ground back to the IPC. The IPC interprets the flow of voltage and responds by sending a serial data message to the underhood electrical center (UEC) and the rear electrical center (REC) requesting the front and rear park lamps be activated. The UEC and REC respond by applying voltage to there respective park, marker, and license lamp control circuits illuminating the park, marker and license lamps.


Conditions for Running the DTC

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



Conditions for Setting the DTC

The DTC will set when the IPC detects a short to voltage or an open/high resistance in the park lamp switch signal circuit.


Actions Taken When the DTC Sets

When DTC B2662 00 is present, the park lamps switch signal circuit will be disabled.


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, disconnect the harness connector at the headlamp switch.
2. Ignition OFF, verify a test lamp illuminates between B+ and the ground circuit terminal 11.

• If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC.

3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Parking Light Status parameter is OFF.

• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 2 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC.

4. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground. Verify the scan tool Parking Light Status parameter is ON.

• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the IPC.

5. If all circuits test normal, replace the headlamp switch.



Repair Instructions

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