8Ls - 2 LAMPSKJ

²Trailer Tow Adapter- Vehicles equipped with
a factory-installed trailer towing package have an
adapter provided that adapts the factory-installed
heavy duty 7-way trailer tow connector to a conven-
tional 4-way light duty connector.
²Trailer Tow Connector- Vehicles equipped
with a factory-installed trailer towing package have a
heavy duty 7-way trailer tow connector installed in a
bracket on the trailer hitch receiver.
²Trailer Tow Relays- Vehicles equipped with a
factory-installed trailer towing package have a con-
nector bank containing four relays located behind the
right quarter trim panel and over the right rear
wheel housing. The four relays are used to supply
fused ignition switch output (run), brake lamps, right
turn signal, and left turn signal outputs to a trailer
through the trailer tow wiring and connectors.
Hard wired circuitry connects the exterior lighting
system components to the electrical system of the
vehicle. These hard wired circuits are integral to sev-
eral wire harnesses, which are routed throughout the
vehicle and retained by many different methods.
These circuits may be connected to each other, to the
vehicle electrical system and to the exterior lighting
system components through the use of a combination
of soldered splices, splice block connectors, and many
different types of wire harness terminal connectors
and insulators. Refer to the appropriate wiring infor-
mation. The wiring information includes wiring dia-
grams, proper wire and connector repair procedures,
further details on wire harness routing and reten-
tion, as well as pin-out and location views for the
various wire harness connectors, splices and grounds.
OPERATION
Following are paragraphs that briefly describe the
operation of each of the major exterior lighting sys-
tems. The hard wired circuits and components of the
exterior lighting systems may be diagnosed and
tested using conventional diagnostic tools and proce-
dures. However, conventional diagnostic methods
may not prove conclusive in the diagnosis of the Body
Control Module (BCM), the ElectroMechanical
Instrument Cluster (EMIC), the Powertrain Control
Module (PCM), or the Programmable Communica-
tions Interface (PCI) data bus network. The most
reliable, efficient, and accurate means to diagnose
the BCM, the EMIC, the PCM, and the PCI data bus
network inputs and outputs related to the various
exterior lighting systems requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.BACKUP LAMPS
The backup (or reverse) lamps have a path to
ground at all times through their connection to the
rear lighting wire harness from a take out of the rear
body wire harness with an eyelet terminal connector
that is secured by a ground screw to the base of the
right D-pillar behind the quarter trim panel. The
backup lamps receive battery current from a fused
ignition switch output (run) fuse in the Junction
Block (JB) on the back-up lamp feed circuit only
when the backup lamp switch (manual transmission),
or backup lamp switch circuit of the Transmission
Range Sensor (TRS - electronic automatic transmis-
sion) is closed by the gearshift mechanism within the
transmission.
BRAKE LAMPS
The brake (or stop) lamps have a path to ground at
all times through their connection to the rear light-
ing wire harness from a take out of the rear body
wire harness with an eyelet terminal connector that
is secured by a screw to the base of the right D-pillar
behind the quarter trim panel. The Center High
Mounted Stop Lamp (CHMSL) has a path to ground
at all times through its connection to the rear body
wire harness from a take out of the rear body wire
harness with an eyelet terminal connector that is
secured by a ground screw to the driver side D-pillar
(left side D-pillar for left-hand drive, right side D-pil-
lar for right-hand drive) behind the quarter trim
panel. The brake lamps and CHMSL receive battery
current from a fused B(+) fuse in the Junction Block
(JB) on the brake lamp switch output circuit only
when the brake lamp switch circuit of the brake
lamp switch is closed by the brake pedal arm.
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
Vehicles manufactured for sale in Canada illumi-
nate the high beam filament at a reduced intensity
when the engine is running and the exterior lamps
are turned off. This feature is enabled by the Body
Control Module (BCM) and a solid state Daytime
Running Lamps (DRL) relay, which is installed in the
Junction Block (JB) and the high beam relay is omit-
ted. When the BCM monitors an engine speed signal
of greater than 450 RPM and the status of the exte-
rior lighting switch input from the multi-function
switch is Off, the BCM duty cycles the DRL relay to
produce illumination of the headlamp high beam fil-
aments at a reduced intensity. The BCM also pro-
vides normal headlamp high beam operation through
the DRL relay on vehicles so equipped. When the
DRL relay is energized, it provides battery current
from a fused B(+) fuse in the JB to the headlamp
high beam filament through the DRL relay output
circuit.

LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR (Continued)

exterior lighting systems requires the use of a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information.
When diagnosing the exterior lighting circuits,
remember that high generator output can burn out
bulbs rapidly and repeatedly; and, that dim or flick-
ering bulbs can be caused by low generator output or
poor battery condition. If one of these symptoms is a
problem on the vehicle being diagnosed, be certain to
diagnose and repair the battery and charging system
as required. Also keep in mind that a good ground is
necessary for proper lighting operation. If a lighting
problem is being diagnosed that involves multiple
symptoms, systems, or components the problem can
often be traced to a loose, corroded, or open ground.
For complete circuit diagrams, refer to the appropri-
ate wiring information. The wiring information
includes wiring diagrams, proper wire and connector
repair procedures, details of wire harness routing
and retention, connector pin-out information andlocation views for the various wire harness connec-
tors, splices and grounds.

COMBINATION FLASHER
DESCRIPTION
The combination flasher for this model is integral
to the hazard switch located in the center of the
instrument panel, just above the radio. The combina-
tion flasher is a smart relay that functions as both
the turn signal system and the hazard warning sys-
tem flasher. The combination flasher contains active
electronic Integrated Circuitry (IC) elements. This
flasher is designed to handle the current flow
requirements of the factory-installed lighting. If sup-
plemental 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 cannot be repaired or
adjusted and, if faulty or damaged, the hazard switch
unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The combination flasher has the following inputs and
outputs: fused B(+), fused ignition switch output, right
turn signal sense, left turn signal sense, and one out-
put each for the right and left turn signal circuits. The
combination flasher also receives an internal input
through the closed contacts of the hazard switch and,
on vehicles equipped with the optional Vehicle Theft
Security System (VTSS), the flasher receives an input
from the Body Control Module (BCM) in order to flash
the turn signal lamps as an optical alert feature of that

FRONT FOG LAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The front fog lamp relay is located in the Junction
Block (JB) on the driver side outboard end of the
instrument panel in the passenger compartment of
the vehicle. The front fog lamp relay is a conven-
tional International Standards Organization (ISO)
micro relay (Fig. 11). Relays conforming to the ISO
specifications have common physical dimensions, cur-
rent capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal func-
tions. The relay is contained within a small,
rectangular, molded plastic housing and is connected
to all of the required inputs and outputs by five inte-
gral male spade-type terminals that extend from the
bottom of the relay base.
The front fog lamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The front fog lamp relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the front fog lamps. The movable common feed
contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
