INFOID:0000000009463551
TURN SIGNAL AND HAZARD WARNING LAMPS : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463552
TURN SIGNAL OPERATION
When the combination switch (lighting and turn signal swit ch) is in LH or RH turn position with the ignition
switch in the ON position, the BCM receives input reques ting the turn RH or turn LH lamps to illuminate. The
BCM controls the turn signal power to the respective turn signal lamp. The BCM also sends a turn indicator
signal ON request via the CAN communication lines to the combination meter. The combination meter then
activates the appropriate turn signal indicator and audible buzzer.
HAZARD LAMP OPERATION
When the hazard switch is in the ON position, the BC M receives input requesting the hazard lamps illuminate.
The BCM controls the turn signal power to both the LH and RH turn signal lamps. The BCM sends a hazard
indicator signal ON request via the CAN communication lines to the combination meter. The combination
meter then activates both the LH and RH turn signal indicators and audible buzzer.

PARKING, LICENSE PLATE AND TA IL LAMPS : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463554
PARKING, LICENSE PLATE AND TAIL LAMPS OPERATION
When the lighting switch is in 1st or 2nd position, BCM detects the LIGHTING SWITCH 1st or 2nd POSITION
ON. The BCM sends a parking light ON request via the CAN communication lines to the IPDM E/R. The IPDM
E/R then activates the tail lamp relay which sends power to the parking and instrument illumination circuits.
EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
With the combination switch (lighting and turn signal switch) in the 1st or 2nd position and the ignition switch is
turned from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery saver feature is activated.
Under this condition, the exterior lamps remain illumi nated for a period of time unless the lighting switch posi-
tion is changed. If the lighting switch position is changed, then the exterior lamps are turned off.

Description
• BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 10 ms intervals normally.NOTE:
BCM reads the status of the combination switch at 60 ms intervals when BCM is controlled at low power
consumption control mode.
• BCM operates as follows and judges the status of the combination switch.
- It operates the transistor on OUTPUT side in the following order: OUTPUT 1 → 2 → 3 → 4 → 5, and outputs
voltage waveform.
- The voltage waveform of OUTPUT corresponding to the formed circuit is input into the interface on INPUT
side if any (1 or more) switches are ON.
- It reads this change of the voltage as the status signal of the combination switch.
Operation Example
In the following operation example, the combination of t he status signals of the combination switch is replaced
as follows: INPUT 1 - 5 to “1 - 5” and OUTPUT 1 - 5 to “A - E”.

CUSTOMER INTERVIEW
Interview the customer if possible, to determine the conditions that exist when the noise occurs. Use the Diag-
nostic Worksheet during the interview to document the facts and conditions when the noise occurs and any
customer's comments; refer to EXT-14, "Diagnostic Worksheet"
. This information is necessary to duplicate the
conditions that exist when the noise occurs.
• The customer may not be able to provide a detailed description or the location of the noise. Attempt to obtain
all the facts and conditions that exist w hen the noise occurs (or does not occur).
• If there is more than one noise in the vehicle, be sure to diagnose and repair the noise that the customer is
concerned about. This can be accomplished by test driving the vehicle with the customer.
• After identifying the type of noise, isolate the noise in terms of its characteristics. The noise characteristics
are provided so the customer, service adviser and technician are all speaking the same language when
defining the noise.
• Squeak —(Like tennis shoes on a clean floor) Squeak characteristics include the light contact/fast movement/brought on by road conditions/hard surfaces
= higher pitch noise/softer surfaces = lower pitch noises/edge to surface = chirping.
• Creak—(Like walking on an old wooden floor) Creak characteristics include firm contact/slow mo vement/twisting with a rotational movement/pitch depen-
dent on materials/often brought on by activity.
• Rattle—(Like shaking a baby rattle) Rattle characteristics include the fast repeated contac t/vibration or similar movement/loose parts/missing
clip or fastener/incorrect clearance.
• Knock —(Like a knock on a door) Knock characteristics include hollow sounding/someti mes repeating/often brought on by driver action.
• Tick—(Like a clock second hand) Tick characteristics include gentle contacting of light materials/loose components/can be caused by driver
action or road conditions.
• Thump—(Heavy, muffled knock noise)
Thump characteristics include softer k nock/dead sound often brought on by activity.
• Buzz—(Like a bumble bee) Buzz characteristics include hi gh frequency rattle/firm contact.
• Often the degree of acceptable noise level will vary depending upon the person. A noise that you may judge
as acceptable may be very irritating to the customer.
• Weather conditions, especially humidity and temperat ure, may have a great effect on noise level.
