Test 5C - Repairing PRKNG Lamp SW Output CKT For Short To Batt

NOTE: For connector terminal identification, see CONNECTOR IDENTIFICATION  . For wiring diagrams, see WIRING DIAGRAMS  . Perform TEST VER-1 after each repair.
NOTE: Low battery or momentary Chrysler Collision Detection (CCD) bus failure may cause trouble codes to set.
  1. Disconnect headlamp switch connector. If parking lamps turn off, replace parking lamp switch. If parking lamps do not turn off, go to next step.
  2. If vehicle is equipped with a parking lamp relay go to next step. Parking lamp relay is located behind dash, below parking lamp switch. If vehicle is not equipped with parking lamp relay, disconnect Body Control Module (BCM). BCM is located behind right kick panel. If parking lamps turn off, replace BCM. If parking lights do not turn off, repair short to battery voltage in Black/Yellow wire between BCM and headlamp switch.
  3. Disconnect parking lamp relay. If parking lamps do not turn off, repair short to battery voltage in Black/Yellow wire between Body Control Module (BCM) and parking lamp relay. If parking lamps turn off, go to next step.
  4. Using an external ohmmeter, check resistance between parking lamp relay terminals "B" (Pink/Red wire) and "D" (Black/Yellow wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, replace parking light relay. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, go to next step.
  5. Disconnect BCM connectors. Using DRB in ohmmeter mode, check resistance of parking lamp relay connector terminal "A" (Light Blue wire). If resistance is less than 5 ohms, repair short to ground in Light Blue wire. If resistance is more than 5 ohms, replace BCM.
