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.

OPERATION
OPERATION - DOOR AJAR SWITCH
The front door ajar switches close a path to ground
for the DDM or the PDM when a front door is
opened, and opens the ground path when a front door
is closed. The rear door ajar switches close a path to
ground for the BCM when a rear door is opened, and
opens the ground path when a rear door is closed.
The DDM, PDM, or BCM read the switch status then
send the proper switch status messages to other
modules over the Programmable Communications
Interface (PCI) data bus network. The door ajar
switch status message is used by the BCM as an
input for Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) oper-
ation.
OPERATION - FLIP UP GLASS AJAR SWITCH
The liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch can close a
path to ground for the BCM and the rear wiper
motor module when the liftgate flip-up glass is
opened, and opens the ground path when the liftgate
flip-up glass is closed. The rear wiper motor module
uses the liftgate flip-up glass ajar switch input to
control the rear wiper operation, and will park the
rear wiper blade if this input indicates that the lift-
gate flip-up glass is ajar. The BCM reads the switch
status then sends the proper switch status message
to other modules over the Programmable Communi-cations Interface (PCI) data bus network. The liftgate
flip-up glass ajar switch status message is used by
the BCM as an input for Vehicle Theft Security Sys-
tem (VTSS) operation.
OPERATION - LIFTGATE AJAR SWITCH
Each of the liftgate ajar switches can close a path
to ground for the BCM when the liftgate is opened,
and opens the ground path when the liftgate is
closed. The BCM reads the switch status then sends
the proper switch status message to other modules
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus network. The liftgate ajar switch sta-
tus message is used by the BCM as an input for
Vehicle Theft Security System (VTSS) operation.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - DOOR AJAR
SWITCH
The following diagnosis and testing is only
