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 DRL 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 DRL relay.
  3. 4:  This step verifies that the BCM is providing ground to the DRL relay.
  4. 5:  This step tests if ground is constantly being applied to the DRL relay.
  5. 6:  This step tests if there is opposing voltage present or an open in the DRL relay control circuit.
  6. 12:  After replacement of the BCM, you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.
