Circuit/System Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Buick Lucerne. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The body control module (BCM) supplies a B+ reference voltage through each of the headlamp switch signal circuits to the headlamp switch. When the headlamp switch is in the AUTO position, all headlamp switch signal circuits to the BCM are open and the BCM operates in the automatic mode. When the headlamp switch is turned to the PARK position, only the park lamp switch signal circuit is pulled low signaling the BCM park lamps ON request. When the headlamp switch is turned to the HEAD position, the park lamp and headlamp switch signal circuits are both pulled low, signaling the BCM the headlamps ON request. When the headlamp switch is turned to the OFF position, only the headlamp off switch signal circuit is pulled low, signaling the BCM the lights off request.
