wiring CHEVROLET KODIAK 2004 Owners Manual

Exterior Lamps
The control located to the left of the steering column
operates the exterior lamps.
The exterior lamp control has four positions:
OFF:Turning the control to this position turns off all
lamps except the Daytime Running Lamps (DRL).
;(Parking Lamps):Turning the control to this
position turns on the parking lamps, together with the
following:
•Marker Lamps
•Taillamps
•License Plate Lamps
•Instrument Panel Lights
O(Headlamps):Turning the control to this position
turns on the headlamps, together with the previously
listed lamps and lights.
You can switch your headlamps from low to high beam
by pulling the turn signal/multifunction lever toward
you. Pull the lever toward you again to return to
low beam.
A circuit breaker protects your headlamps. If you have
an electrical overload, your headlamps will flicker on and
off. Have your headlamp wiring checked right away if
this ever happens.
Headlamps On Reminder
If you have this system, a tone will sound when your
headlamps and/or parking lamps are turned on and your
ignition is in LOCK or ACCESSORY.

Air Bag Readiness Light
If your vehicle has air bags, there is an air bag readiness
light on the instrument panel, which shows the airbag
symbol. The system checks the air bag’s electrical
system for malfunctions. The light tells you if there is an
electrical problem. The system check includes the air
bag sensors, the air bag modules, the wiring, the
passenger air bag suppression circuit and the crash
sensing and diagnostic module. For more information on
the air bag system, seeAir Bag System on page 1-48.
This light will come on
when you start your
vehicle, and it will flash for
a few seconds. Then
the light should go out.
This means the system
is ready.
If the air bag readiness light stays on after you start the
vehicle or comes on when you are driving, your air
bag system may not work properly. Have your vehicle
serviced right away.The air bag readiness light should flash for a few
seconds when you turn the ignition key to RUN or
START. If the light doesn’t come on then, have it fixed
so it will be ready to warn you if there is a problem.
{CAUTION:
If the air bag readiness light stays on after you
start your vehicle, it means the air bag system
may not be working properly. The air bags in
your vehicle may not inate in a crash, or they
could even inate without a crash. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle serviced right away if the air bag
readiness light stays on after you start
your vehicle.

Service Parts Identication Label
You’ll find this label in a location determined by the body
manufacturer. It’s very helpful if you ever need to
order parts. On this label is:
•your VIN,
•the model designation,
•paint information and
•a list of all production options and special
equipment.
Be sure that this label is not removed from the vehicle.
Electrical System
Add-On Electrical Equipment
Notice:Don’t add anything electrical to your
vehicle unless you check with your dealer rst.
Some electrical equipment can damage your vehicle
and the damage wouldn’t be covered by your
warranty. Some add-on electrical equipment can
keep other components from working as they
should.
Headlamp Wiring
The headlamp wiring is protected by a circuit breaker in
the light switch. An electrical overload will cause the
lights to go on and off, or in some cases to remain off. If
this happens, have your headlamp wiring checked
right away.
5-86

Windshield Wiper Fuses
The windshield wiper motor is protected by a circuit
breaker inside the motor and a circuit breaker or fuse in
the fuse block. If the motor overheats, the wipers will
stop until the motor cools. If the overload is caused by
an electrical problem, be sure to get it fixed.
Fusible Links
A fusible link is a short piece of wire several gauge
sizes smaller than the circuit it protects. It will melt in an
overload situation, opening the circuit.
Your starter and other circuits have these fusible links.
The size is printed on the insulation. If the insulation
is burned beyond recognition, consult your GM dealer
for the proper size. Replace a fusible link with one of the
same size and insulation type. Fusible link insulation
is a special purpose high-temperature material.
The hydraulic brake booster motor feed circuit and
starter circuit are protected by a fusible link. Vehicles
with a diesel engine have a fusible link for the intake
heater feed circuit.
Power Windows and Other Power
Options
Circuit breakers in the fuse panel protect the power
windows and other power accessories. When the current
load is too heavy, the circuit breaker opens. This
protects the circuit until the current load returns to
normal or the problem is fixed.
Fuses and Circuit Breakers
The wiring circuits in your vehicle are protected from
short circuits by a combination of fuses, circuit breakers,
maxi-fuses and fusible links. This greatly reduces the
chance of a fire caused by an electrical problem. There
may be a fuse taped to the wiring harness near the
hydraulic brake booster.

(39)= Air brake service:
•Inspect brake lines and hoses for proper hook-up,
binding, leaks, cracks, chafing, etc. Inspect drum
brake linings for wear or cracks. Inspect other brake
parts at each wheel, including drums and wheel
speed sensor wiring. Check brake pedal for
excessive free play or travel (or every 6 months,
whichever occurs first) and have serviced if needed.
Check brakes more often if driving habits and
conditions result in frequent braking. Replace air
dryer cartridge only if excessive oil or moisture
is present. A small amount of oil in the system is
normal and should not be considered as a reason to
replace the cartridge.
•Test air lines for leaks; tighten as needed. Replace
compressor filter.
•Inspect air parking brake chamber for leaks and
damage. Inspect lines and hoses for leaks,
cracks, chafing, etc. Also check all attachments for
tightness, wear or damage. Note: The spring
brake section of the rear brake diaphragms are
non-serviceable.
•Replace the air compressor filter element, mounted
on the air compressor. For remote air compressor
intake service, refer to engine air cleaner filter
replacement.
•Remove, disassemble, clean and inspect the safety
valve, standard brake chambers, quick release
valves, quick release/double check valve
combinations, parking brake control valve, double
check valves, pressure protection valves and
alcohol injector (if equipped).
•Remove, disassemble and clean the application
valve; replace parts showing wear.
•Remove, disassemble, clean and inspect the spring
brake control valve; replace rubber parts.
(40)= Clean and lubricate air brake automatic slack
adjuster. Check pushrod travel and auto adjustment
operation. Have serviced if needed.
(41)= Air brake chamber service: Check operation,
mounting, clamps and air lines and check for leaks.
(42)= Trailer brake hand control valve service: Check
operation; lubricate cam and follower.
(46)= Tighten the wheel stud nuts to the specified
torque values at 100 miles (160 km). Thereafter, tighten
them 1,000 miles (1 600 km) after each time the
wheel is removed. SeeTightening the Wheel Nuts on
page 5-71.
