Test 60B - Parking Lamp Switch Output Circuit Short To Ground

NOTE: Perform TEST 60A  before proceeding with this test. For connector terminal ID, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring schematics, see WIRING DIAGRAMS  in this article. Perform TEST VER-1 - VERIFICATION PROCEDURE  after each repair.
CAUTION: Always turn ignition off prior to disconnecting any module connector.
NOTE: Low battery or momentary Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) bus failure may cause DTCs to set.
  1. Using scan tool, erase DTCs. Start engine. Turn parking lamps on. Allow engine to run for 2 minutes. Turn parking lamps off. Turn engine off. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, read Body Control Module (BCM) DTCs. If PANEL LAMP PWM OUTPUT FAILURE DTC is not present, system is operating properly at this time. If PANEL LAMP PWM OUTPUT FAILURE is present, go to next step.
  2. Turn ignition off. Disconnect BCM connectors. BCM is located behind right kick panel. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM Gray connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace BCM. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect headlight switch connector. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM Gray connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace headlight switch. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  4. Disconnect radio connector. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM Gray connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace radio. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  5. Disconnect Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) head connector (if equipped). ATC head is located behind A/C-heater control panel. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM Gray connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace ATC head. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  6. Disconnect manual A/C climate control head connector (if equipped). Manual A/C climate control head is located behind A/C-heater control panel. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace manual A/C climate control head. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  7. Disconnect instrument cluster connectors. Using scan tool in ohmmeter mode, measure resistance at terminal No. 8 (Orange wire) on BCM connector. If resistance is 5 ohms or greater, replace instrument cluster. See appropriate INSTRUMENT PANEL article in the ACCESSORIES & ELECTRICAL section. If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Orange wire.
