Possible Causes are:

  1. Disconnect the Automatic Headlamp Light Sensor/VTSS LED harness connector. Measure the voltage of the Fused B+ circuit. Is the voltage more than 10 volts? If yes, go to next step. If no, repair the VTSS Fused B+ circuit for an open. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST 1A  under VERIFICATION TESTS.

If yes, replace the Automatic Headlamp Light Sensor/VTSS LED assembly. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST 1A  under VERIFICATION TESTS. If no, go to next step.
  3. Disconnect the Automatic Headlamp Light Sensor/VTSS LED harness connector. Disconnect the BCM C1 harness connector. Measure the resistance of the VTSS Indicator Driver circuit. Is the resistance less than 5 ohms? If yes, replace the Body Control Module. Perform VTSS VERIFICATION TEST 1A  under VERIFICATION TESTS. If no, repair the VTSS Indicator Driver circuit for an open.
