Turn Signal Lamps Malfunction

  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the inoperative turn signal lamp.
  2. Test for less than 5.0 Ω between the appropriate ground circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • E4RF Turn Signal Lamp - Right Front ground circuit harness connector terminal 1
    • A9A Outside Rearview Mirror - Driver ground circuit harness connector terminal 4
    • E4LF Turn Signal Lamp - Left Front ground circuit harness connector terminal 1
    • A9B Outside Rearview Mirror - Passenger ground circuit harness connector terminal 4
    • E42L Tail Lamp Assembly - Left ground circuit harness connector terminal F
    • E42R Tail Lamp Assembly - Right ground circuit harness connector terminal F
    • If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open circuit/high resistance.
  3. Connect a test lamp between the appropriate control circuit terminal listed below and ground.
    • E4RF Turn Signal Lamp - Right Front circuit harness connector terminal 2
    • A9A Outside Rearview Mirror - Driver circuit harness connector terminal 16
    • E4LF Turn Signal Lamp - Left Front circuit harness connector terminal 2
    • A9B Outside Rearview Mirror - Passenger circuit harness connector terminal 16
    • E42R Tail Lamp Assembly - Auxiliary Right Turn Signal Lamp circuit harness connector terminal B
    • E42L Tail Lamp Assembly - Auxiliary Left Turn Signal Lamp circuit harness connector terminal B
  4. Command the appropriate Turn Signal Lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
  5. If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the test shows that the circuit is normal, replace the body electronic module K9.
  6. If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the test shows that the circuit is normal, replace the body electronic module K9.
  7. If all circuits test normal, replace the appropriate turn signal lamp assembly.
