Left Daytime Running Lamps Control | B260D 02 | B260D 04 | B260D 01 | - |
Right Daytime Running Lamps Control | B260E 02 | B260E 04 | B260E 01 | - |
Circuit/System Description |
When the headlight switch is in the Auto position and the ambient light sensor detects sunlight, the body control module (BCM) will command the daytime running lamps to illuminate by providing 12 volts to the daytime running lamp control circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC |
• |
Engine is running.
|
• |
Headlamp switch in AUTO position.
|
• |
The ambient light is day.
|
Conditions for Setting the DTC |
B260D 01 or B260E 01
The BCM detects a short to voltage on the daytime running lamp control circuitB260D 02 or B260E 02
The BCM detects a short to ground on the daytime running lamp control circuitB260D 04 or B260E 04
The BCM detects an open/high resistance on the daytime running lamp control circuitAction Taken When the DTC Sets |
B260D 01 or B260E 01
The daytime running lamp will be continuously illuminated.B260D 02, B260D 04, B260E 02 or B260E 04
The daytime running lamp will be inoperativeConditions for Clearing the DTC |
• |
The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.
|
• |
When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history DTC.
|
• |
A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification |
Ignition ON, command the Left Dedicated Daytime Running Lamp and the Right Dedicated Daytime Running Lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool. The E4C daytime running lamp - left and the E4D daytime running lamp - right should turn ON and OFF while changing between the commanded states.
Circuit/System Testing |
1. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the X1 harness connector K9 BCM.
|
2. |
Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 3 and ground.
|
3. |
If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
|
4. |
Ignition OFF, connect the X1 harness connector K9 BCM
|
5. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the inline harness connector listed below:
|
• |
E4C daytime running lamp - left X111 inline harness connector
|
• |
E4D daytime running lamp - right X116 inline harness connector
|
6. |
Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal G and ground.
|
7. |
Command the appropriate Dedicated Daytime Running Lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
|
8. |
If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
|
9. |
If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuits test normal, replace the K9 BCM.
|
10. |
If all circuits test normal, replace the daytime running lamp bulb.
|
