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. 2:  Listen for an audible click when the park lamp relay operates. Command both the ON and OFF states. Repeat the commands as necessary.
  2. 3:  This step tests for voltage at the coil side of the park lamp relay.
  3. 4:  This step verifies that the BCM is providing ground to the park lamp relay.
  4. 5:  This step tests if ground is constantly being applied to the park lamp relay.
  5. 6:  This step tests if there is opposing voltage present or an open park lamp relay control circuit.
  6. 12:  After replacement of the BCM you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.
