1. Head-Up Display Switch Malfunction



Circuit/System Description

The head-up display dimming switch is a resistance ladder switch and wired to head-up display. The head-up display dimming switch signal circuit is pulled up to battery voltage in the head-up display. The head-up display also provides the head-up display switch with a low reference. The head-up display switch is a momentary contact switch that connects a series of resistors in a resistor ladder format. The head-up display monitors the head-up display dimming switch signal circuit to determine the head-up display dimming state. Each switch state corresponds to a certain resistance value.

Conditions for Running the DTC


The ignition is in OFF, ACCESSORY or RUN position.

The system voltage is between 9-16 V.


Conditions for Setting the DTC

B3634 02

The head-up display detects that the head-up display switch signal circuit is less than 100 mV.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

B3634 02

The head-up display will be set in a default illumination level.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The DTC will become history if the head-up display no longer detects a malfunction.

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, verify that when the head-up display dimming switch is change for minimum to maximum position the scan tool Display Dimming parameter changes from 0% to 100% and the and the scan tool Dim Select Switch parameter changes from 1-12.

Circuit/System Testing


1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S27 Head-Up Display Switch.

2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

3. If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K78 Head-Up Display Module.

4. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Dim Select Switch parameter is 12.

5. If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K78 Head-Up Display Module.

6. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and the low reference circuit terminal 1. Verify the scan tool Dim Select Switch parameter is 1.

7. If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K78 Head-Up Display Module.

8. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S27 Head-Up Display Switch.


Component Testing


Static Test

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S27 Head-Up Display Switch.

2. Turn the dimming switch to minimum position.

3. Test for 25-40 Ω between the signal terminal 3 and the low reference circuit terminal 1. Turn the dimming switch from minimum to maximum and verify the resistance increases in each position to 875-950 Ω in maximum position.

4. If the resistance does not change, replace the S27 Head-Up Display Switch.
