AUTO HEADLAMP SENSOR
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - AUTO HEADLAMP
SENSOR (AHL)
The auto headlamp sensor needs real sunlight to
properly register the light level. When auto head-
lamps are enabled indoors, the headlamps may be
turned on. The sensor is located in the center of the
defroster grille at the base of the windshield. There
are no faults set in the Body Control Module (BCM)
for a inoperative or missing AHL Sensor. Symptom of
a missing sensor or unconnected sensor would be
that the Headlamps and Parklamps turn on when
the vehicle is started and there is a high level of
ambient light present (ie. daytime). Auto headlamps
should not function in the presence of daylight.

COMBINATION FLASHER
DESCRIPTION
The combination flasher is located in the Junction
Block (JB) (Fig. 6). The JB is located underneath the
driver side of the instrument panel outboard of the
steering column. The combination flasher is a smart
relay that functions as both the turn signal system
and the hazard warning system flasher. The combi-
nation flasher contains active electronic Integrated
Circuitry (IC) elements. This flasher is designed to
handle the current flow requirements of the factory-
installed lighting. If supplemental lighting is added
to the turn signal lamp circuits, such as when towing
a trailer with lights, the combination flasher will
automatically try to compensate to keep the flash
rate the same.The combination flasher has nine blade-type termi-
nals that connect it to the vehicle electrical system.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
Because of the active electronic elements within
the combination flasher, it cannot be tested with con-
ventional automotive electrical test equipment. If the
combination flasher is believed to be faulty, test the
turn signal system and hazard warning system cir-
cuits.(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING
- EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - TURN
SIGNAL & HAZARD WARNING SYSTEM). The com-
bination flasher cannot be repaired or adjusted and,
if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The combination flasher controls the following
inputs and outputs: B(+), fused ignition switch out-
put, left turn switch sense, right turn switch sense,
hazard switch sense, left front turn signal circuit,
right front turn signal circuit, left rear turn signal
circuit and right rear turn signal circuit. Constant
battery voltage is supplied to the flasher so that it
can perform the hazard warning function, and igni-
tion switched battery voltage is supplied for the turn
signal function. However, when the flasher is idle no
current is drawn through the module. The unit does
not become active until it is provided a signal ground
from the turn signal switch, hazard warning switch
or the Body Control Module (BCM).
The IC within the combination flasher (Fig. 7) con-
tains the logic that controls the flasher operation and
the flash rate. When a bulb is burnt out, or when a
circuit for a lamp is open, the turn signal flash rate
will increase. However, an open lamp circuit or burnt
out bulb does not change the hazard warning flash
rate.

Turn signal inputs that actuate the combination
flasher are low current grounds, each drawing a
maximum of 300 milliamperes.The hazard warning
signal input is a low current ground drawing a max-
imum of 600 milliamperes.

HEADLAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp switch is part of the left multi-func-
tion switch. A knob on the end of the multi-function
switch control stalk controls all of the exterior light-
ing switch functions. The exterior lighting switch is
hard wired to the Body Control Module (BCM).
The exterior lighting switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the entire left
multi-function switch unit must be replaced. (Refer
to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERI-
OR/TURN SIGNAL/HAZARD SWITCH - REMOVAL)
for the service procedures. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRI-
CAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/BODY
CONTROL/CENTRAL TIMER MODUL - DESCRIP-
TION) for more information on this component.
OPERATION
The exterior lighting switch uses a hard wired five
volt reference circuit from the BCM, resistor multi-
plexing and a hard wired switch output circuit to
provide the BCM with a zero to five volt signal thatindicates the status of all of the exterior lighting
switch settings. The BCM then uses control outputs
to energize the headlamp and park lamp relays that
activate the exterior lighting circuits.
The BCM monitors the exterior lighting switch sta-
tus, then sends the proper switch status messages to
other modules over the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The exterior
lighting switch status is also used by the BCM as an
input for chime warning system operation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING Ð HEADLAMP
SWITCH
Before testing the headlamp switch, turn on the
exterior lighting and open the driver side front door.
If the exterior lamps of the vehicle operate, but there
is no chime warning issued with the driver side front
door open, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/
LIGHTING - INTERIOR/DOOR AJAR SWITCH -
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the exterior lamps
of the vehicle are inoperative, but the chime warning
is issued, (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHT-
ING - EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING).
If the exterior lamps and the chime warning are
both inoperative, test the left multi-function switch.
(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/LIGHTING -
EXTERIOR - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING). If the
multi-function switch tests OK, proceed as follows.
The following tests will help to locate a short or open
in the hard wired circuits between the multi-function
switch and the Body Control Module (BCM). For
complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropriate
wiring information.

LEFT MULTI-FUNCTION
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The left multi-function switch, its mounting provi-
sions, and its electrical connections are all concealed
beneath the steering column shrouds, just below the
steering wheel (Fig. 22).
A single connector with eleven terminal pins is
located on the back of the switch housing and con-
nects the switch to the vehicle electrical system. The
left multi-function switch supports the following exte-
rior lighting functions:
²Auto Headlamps
²Front Fog Lamps
²Hazard Warning Control
²Headlamps
²Headlamp Beam Selection
²Headlamp Optical Horn
²Park Lamps
²Rear Fog Lamps
²Turn Signal Control
The left multi-function switch also supports the fol-
lowing interior lighting functions:
²Panel Lamps Dimming
²Interior Lamps Defeat²Interior Lamps On
²Parade Mode
The left multi-function switch cannot be adjusted
or repaired. If any function of the switch is faulty, or
if the switch is damaged, the entire switch unit must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The left multi-function switch uses a combination
of resistor multiplexed and conventionally switched
outputs to control the many functions and features it
provides using a minimal number of hard wired cir-
cuits. The switch is grounded to the chassis beneath
the center floor console, just forward of the Airbag
Control Module (ACM). Following are descriptions of
the how the left multi-function switch operates to
control the many exterior lighting functions and fea-
tures it provides:
²Auto Headlamps- The automatic headlamps
feature is provided by the Body Control Module
(BCM), which monitors an input from a photodiode
sensor located on the top of the instrument panel to
detect ambient light levels whenever the ignition
switch is in the On position. Based upon the multi-
plexed input from the left multi-function switch and
the input of the photodiode sensor, the BCM controls
outputs to the park lamp and headlamp relays to
illuminate or extinguish all exterior lighting.
²Front Fog Lamps- The Body Control Module
(BCM) monitors the left multi-function switch then,
based upon that switched ground input, controls an
output to the front fog lamp relay to illuminate or
extinguish the front fog lamps.

²Hazard Warning Control- The hazard warn-
ing push button is pressed down to activate the haz-
ard warning system, and pressed down again to turn
the system off. The left multi-function switch pro-
vides a ground to the hazard warning sense input of
the combination flasher to control activation of the
hazard warning lamps.
²Headlamps- The Body Control Module (BCM)
monitors the left multi-function switch then, based
upon that multiplexed input, controls an output to
the headlamp low or high beam relays to illuminate
or extinguish the headlamps.
²Headlamp Beam Selection- The Body Control
Module (BCM) monitors the left multi-function
switch then, based upon that switched ground input,
controls an output to the headlamp low or high beam
relays to activate the selected headlamp beam.
²Headlamp Optical Horn- The Body Control
Module (BCM) monitors the left multi-function
switch then, based upon that switched ground input,
controls an output to the headlamp high beam relay
to activate the headlamp high beams.
²Park Lamps- The Body Control Module (BCM)
monitors the left multi-function switch then, based
upon that multiplexed input, controls an output to
the park lamp relay to illuminate or extinguish the
parking lamps.
²Rear Fog Lamps- The Body Control Module
(BCM) monitors the left multi-function switch then,
based upon that multiplexed input, controls an out-
put to the rear fog lamp relay to illuminate or extin-
guish the rear fog lamps.
²Turn Signal Control- The left multi-function
switch control stalk actuates the turn signal switch.
The Body Control Module (BCM) monitors the left
multi-function switch then, based upon that multi-
plexed input, provides a variable voltage output to
control the lighting of the turn signals.
Following are descriptions of the how the left
multi-function switch operates to control the many
interior lighting functions and features it provides:
²Panel Lamps Dimming- The Body Control
Module (BCM) monitors the left multi-function
switch then, based upon that multiplexed input, pro-
vides a variable voltage output through several panel
lamps driver circuits to control the lighting of many
incandescent panel lamps. The BCM also sends panel
lamps dimming messages over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus to other
modules to control Display lighting levels in those
modules.²Interior Lamps Defeat- The Body Control
Module (BCM) monitors the left multi-function
switch then, based upon that multiplexed input,
internally disables the function the BCM normally
provides to control the illumination of the interior
lamps.
²Interior Lamps On- The Body Control Module
(BCM) monitors the left multi-function switch then,
based upon that multiplexed input, provides a control
output to activate all of the interior lamp circuits.
²Parade Mode- The Body Control Module
(BCM) monitors the left multi-function switch then,
based upon that multiplexed input, provides a volt-
age output through several panel lamps driver cir-
cuits to control the lighting of many incandescent
panel lamps. The BCM also sends panel lamps dim-
ming messages over the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus to other modules on
the bus to control lighting levels in those modules.
