Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 GMC Sierra, 2009 GMC Cab & Chassis Sierra, 2009 Chevrolet Silverado, and 2009 Chevrolet Cab & Chassis Silverado. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
Battery positive voltage is applied at all times to both the coil and switch sides of the PARK LAMP Relay located in the underhood fuse block. When the headlamp switch is placed in either the HEAD or PARK position, ground is applied to the park lamp signal circuit to the body control module (BCM). The BCM responds by applying ground to the PARK LAMP Relay control circuit. This energizes the PARK LAMP Relay coil causing the relay switch contacts to close allowing B+ to flow through the LT PRK fuse, RT PRK fuse, and the TRLR PRK fuse, to all of the park, tail, license, and marker lamps.
