Courtesy Lamp Malfunction

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Pontiac G5 and 2010 Chevrolet Cobalt. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate courtesy lamp.
  2. Ignition OFF, scan tool OFF, doors CLOSED, interior lamps OFF, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit listed below and ground.
    • Dome lamp - terminal A
    • Inside rearview mirror - terminal 8 (with UE1)
    • Inside rearview mirror - terminal 2 (without UE1)
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • Dome lamp - terminal D
    • Inside rearview mirror - terminal 6 (with UE1)
    • Inside rearview mirror - terminal 7 (without UE1)
  4. Command the Interior Lamps ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  5. Connect a test lamp between B+ and the control circuit terminal listed below.
    • Dome lamp - terminal B
    • Inside rearview mirror low - terminal 1 (with UE1)
    • Inside rearview mirror low - terminal 6 (without UE1)
  6. Command the Inadvertent Power ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  7. If all circuits test normal, replace the courtesy lamp.
