DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES - HIGH BEAM HEADLAMPS WILL NOT TURN ON
| TEST | ACTION | APPLICABILITY |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Turn the Headlamps on. Gain access to the High Beam Headlamp Relay in the junction block. Cycle the high beam switch on the multifunction switch and listen to or feel the High Beam Relay for a click. Does the relay click? Yes --> Go To 2 No --> Go To 3 |
All |
| 2 | Remove the Headlamp Delay Relay. Measure the voltage of the Fused B+ circuit at the Headlamp Delay Relay connector. Is the voltage above 10.0 volts? Yes --> Go To 3 No --> Repair the open fused B+ circuit from PDC fuse 4. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . |
All |
| 3 | Remove fuse 4 from the PDC. Disconnect the Multifunction Switch connector. Measure the resistance of the Fused Low Beam Output Circuit to ground. Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms? Yes --> Repair the Fused Low Beam output circuit for a short to ground condition. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . No --> Go To 4 |
All |
| 4 | Remove the Headlamp Delay Relay from the junction block. Disconnect the Multifunction Switch connector. Measure the resistance of the Headlamp Delay Relay Control circuit to ground. Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms? Yes --> Repair the Fused High Beam Output Circuit for a short to ground condition. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . No --> Go To 5 |
All |
| 5 | Disconnect the Multifunction Switch connector. Turn the headlamps on. Measure the voltage of the Fused Low Beam Relay Output circuit in the multifunction switch connector. Is the voltage below 10.0 volts? Yes --> Replace the Headlamp Delay Relay. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . No --> Go To 6 |
All |
| 6 | Disconnect the Multifunction Switch connector. Turn the headlamps on. Measure the voltage of the Fused Low Beam Relay Output circuit in the multifunction switch connector. Is the voltage above 5.0 volts? Yes --> Go To 7 No --> Repair the open Fused Low Beam Output circuit. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . |
All |
| 7 | Disconnect the Multifunction Switch connector. Turn the headlamps on. Ensure the Headlamp Delay Relay is installed. Connect a jumper wire between the Fused Low Beam Relay Output and the Switched High Beam Relay Control circuits in the multifunction switch connector. Did the High Beam Headlamps come on? Yes --> Repair the Headlamp Delay Relay Control Circuit for an open condition. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . No --> Replace the Multifunction Switch. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1 . |
