Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Hummer H2. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 3:  This step tests for voltage at the voltage supply side of the headlamp low beam relay.
  2. 4:  This step verifies that the BCM is providing ground to the headlamp low beam relay.
  3. 5:  This step tests if ground is constantly being applied to the headlamp low beam relay.
  4. 6:  This step tests if there is opposing voltage present or an open headlamp low beam relay control circuit, including the relay coil side.
  5. 12:  After replacement of the BCM you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.
