- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate component.
- Ignition OFF, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the listed ground circuit terminal and B+.
- Headlamp Switch terminal 8
- Sunroof switch terminal 5
- Front door lock switch terminal B - w/o AN3
- Driver window switch terminal A X2 - w/o AN3

- Command the Dimming Test high to low with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn from bright to dim when changing between the commanded states.
- If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance or short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If the test lamp is always bright, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the appropriate component.
