Circuit/System Description |
The body control module (BCM) supplies a reference voltage to the backlight dimmer switch, which is part of the headlamp switch. When the backlight dimmer switch is placed in a desired brightness position, reference voltage is applied through the backlight dimmer switch resistor ladder to the BCM. The BCM interprets this voltage signal, then applies a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage to the backlight lamp control circuit, and the LED dimming control circuit illuminating the LEDs and the components listed below, if equipped:
• |
Headlamp Switch
|
• |
Multifunction Switch - Center Console
|
• |
Multifunction Switch 1 - Instrument Panel (Base)
|
• |
Multifunction Switch 1 - Instrument Panel (Uplevel)
|
• |
Multifunction Switch 2 - Instrument Panel
|
• |
Cigarette Lighter Receptacle
|
• |
Head-Up Display Switch
|
• |
Park Brake Switch
|
• |
Steering Wheel Air Bag Coil
|
• |
Night Panel Switch
|
Conditions for Running the DTC |
The ignition is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC |
The BCM detects a short to ground on the LED dimming control circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets |
The BCM will not attempt to illuminate the LED indicator lamps when a short circuit to ground is detected.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
• |
The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
|
• |
A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction ignition cycles have occurred.
