Circuit/System Description
The INTERIOR LIGHTS fuse supplies battery voltage to the body control module (BCM). The BCM applies battery voltage to the inside rearview mirror lamps through the courtesy lamp supply voltage circuit. The inside rearview mirror lamps are controlled by a 3 position (DOOR, OFF, ON) switch. When the inside rearview mirror switch is placed in the DOOR position, the lamps are controlled by the BCM. When any door is opened, the jam switch contacts close and the BCM receives a door-open input. If the BCM receives a door lock or unlock input or a rear hatch open input, the BCM will activate the courtesy lamp supply voltage circuit, providing battery voltage to the rearview mirror lamps. The BCM also provides ground to the inside rearview mirror lamps through the courtesy lamp control circuit.
