Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) provides voltage to the rear compartment courtesy lamps through the rear compartment courtesy lamps control circuit. When the BCM receives a rear compartment door/lid open input from the rear compartment door/lid latch, the BCM applies voltage to the rear compartment courtesy lamps control circuit illuminating the rear compartment courtesy lamps. In the event that the rear compartment courtesy lamps were to remain illuminated for more than 10 minutes with the ignition switch in the OFF position, the BCM will deactivate the rear compartment courtesy lamps control circuit to prevent total battery discharge.

Rear Compartment Courtesy lamps may come on along with Dome lamps during a courtesy event if applicable.
