Circuit/System Description
Voltage is applied at all times to the park lamp relay from battery voltage. When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARK position and the body
control module (BCM) commands the park lamps ON, the BCM then applies a ground to the park lamp relay control circuit. This engages the relay
and applies voltage through the park lamp fuses and to all the park, license, and tail lamps.
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The Ignition is ON.
* The park lamps must be commanded ON by the BCM.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM detects a short to voltage on the park lamp relay control circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
All park, license, and tail lamps are inoperative.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present.
* A history DTC clears after 100 malfunction-free ignition cycles.
* The BCM receives the clear code command from the scan tool.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the park lamp relay.
2. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the control circuit terminal 87 and ground.
锟斤拷 If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage.
