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.

BRAKE LAMP SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The brake lamp switch is a three circuit, spring-
loaded plunger actuated switch that is secured to the
steering column support bracket under the driver
side of the instrument panel (Fig. 3). The brake lamp
switch is contained within a rectangular molded plas-
tic housing with an integral connector receptacle fea-
turing six terminal pins and a red plastic Connector
Position Assurance (CPA) lock. The switch is con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a ded-
icated take out and connector of the instrument
panel wire harness. The switch plunger extends
through a mounting collar on one end of the switch
housing. The plunger has a one time telescoping self-
adjustment feature that is achieved after the switch
is installed by moving an adjustment release lever on
the opposite end of the switch housing clockwise,
until it locks in a position that is parallel to the con-
nector receptacle. The brake lamp switch self-adjust-
ment is a one time feature. Once the feature has
been used, the switch cannot be readjusted. A ªDO
NOT RE-INSTALLº warning is molded into the
switch housing below the connector receptacle.
An installed brake lamp switch cannot be read-
justed or repaired. If the switch is damaged, faulty,
or removed from its mounting position for any rea-
son, it must be replaced with a new unit.
OPERATION
The brake lamp switch controls three different cir-
cuits, one normally open and two normally closed.
These circuits are described as follows:
²Brake Lamp Switch Circuit- A normally
open brake lamp switch circuit receives battery cur-
rent on a fused B(+) circuit from a fuse in the Junc-
tion Block (JB), and supplies battery current to the
brake lamps and the Controller Antilock Brake
(CAB) on a brake lamp switch output circuit when
the brake pedal is depressed (brake lamp switch
plunger released).
²Brake Lamp Switch Signal Circuit- A nor-
mally closed brake lamp switch signal circuit receives
a path to ground through a splice block located in the
instrument panel wire harness with an eyelet termi-
nal connector that is secured by a nut to a ground
stud on the driver side instrument panel end bracket
near the Junction Block (JB). This circuit supplies a
ground input to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) on a brake lamp switch sense circuit when the
brake pedal is released (brake lamp switch plunger is
depressed).
²Speed Control Circuit- A normally closed
speed control circuit receives battery current from
the Powertrain Control Module on a speed control
supply circuit, and supplies battery current to the
speed control servo solenoids (dump, vacuum, and
vent) on a speed control brake switch output circuit
when the speed control system is turned on and the
brake pedal is released (brake lamp switch plunger is
depressed).
Concealed within the brake lamp switch housing
the components of the self-adjusting brake switch
plunger consist of a two-piece telescoping plunger, a
split plunger locking collar, and a release wedge. The
release lever has an integral shaft with a wedge that
spreads the plunger locking collar to an open or
released position. After the switch is installed and
the brake pedal is released, the plunger telescopes to
the correct adjustment position. When the release
lever is moved to the release position, the wedge is
disengaged from the locking collar causing the collar
to apply a clamping pressure to the two plunger
halves fixing the plunger length.
The brake lamp switch can be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.

point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. A
resistor is connected in parallel with the relay coil in
the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage spikes and
electromagnetic interference that can be generated as
the electromagnetic field of the relay coil collapses.
The front fog lamp relay terminals are connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a connector
receptacle in the Junction Block (JB). The inputs and
outputs of the front fog lamp relay include:
²Common Feed Terminal- The common feed
terminal (30) receives battery current at all times
from a fuse in the JB through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Coil Ground Terminal- The coil ground termi-
nal (85) is connected to a control output of the pre-
mium Body Control Module (BCM) through a front
fog lamp relay control circuit. The BCM controls
front fog lamp operation by controlling a ground path
through this circuit.
²Coil Battery Terminal- The coil battery ter-
minal (86) receives battery current at all times from
a fuse in the JB through a fused B(+) circuit.
²Normally Open Terminal- The normally open
terminal (87) is connected to the front fog lamps
through a front fog lamp relay output circuit and
provides battery current to the front fog lamps when-
ever the relay is energized.
²Normally Closed Terminal- The normally
closed terminal (87A) is not connected in this appli-
cation.
The front fog lamp relay can be diagnosed using
conventional diagnostic tools and methods.

switch module housing is the hazard switch circuitry
and an electronic circuit board with the integral com-
bination flasher circuitry. The electronic combination
flasher circuitry performs both the hazard flasher
and turn signal flasher functions.
The hazard switch module cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The hazard switch button is slightly recessed in
the instrument panel when the switch is in the Off
position, and latches at a position that is flush with
the outer surface of the instrument panel when in
the On position. The hazard switch module produces
an audible clicking sound that emulates the sound of
a conventional flasher whenever the turn signals or
the hazard warning system are activated. The hazard
switch module receives battery current on a fused
B(+) circuit from a fuse in the Junction Block (JB) at
all times for operation of the hazard warning, and on
a fused ignition switch output (run) circuit from
another fuse in the JB whenever the ignition switch
is in the On position for operation of the turn signals.
The module receives a path to ground through a
splice block located in the instrument panel wire har-
ness with an eyelet terminal connector that is
secured by a nut to a ground stud on the driver side
instrument panel end bracket near the JB. Inputs to
and outputs from the hazard switch module include:
²Panel Lamps Dimmer Input- A non-service-
able incandescent bulb soldered onto the hazard
switch module circuit board provides illumination of
the switch button when the exterior lighting is
turned On through an input received on the fusedpanel lamps dimmer switch signal circuit. However,
this bulb flashes on and off at full intensity whenever
the hazard switch button is in the On position,
regardless of the status of the exterior lighting.
²Hazard Switch Input- The combination
flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module receives
an internal ground input from the hazard switch to
request hazard flasher operation.
²Multi-Function Switch Input- The combina-
tion flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module
receives separate ground inputs from the turn signal
switch circuitry of the multi-function switch on right
and left turn switch sense circuits to request right or
left turn signal flasher operation.
²Body Control Module Input- The Body Con-
trol Module (BCM) can request hazard flasher opera-
tion by providing a ground path to the combination
flasher circuitry of the hazard switch module through
a hazard lamp control circuit.
²Turn Signal Output- The combination flasher
circuitry within the hazard switch module responds
to the flasher request inputs by energizing and
de-energizing two miniature relays on the module
circuit board. These relays control the switch output
through the right and left turn signal circuits. One
relay controls the right lamps, while the other con-
trols the left.
Because of active electronic elements within the
hazard switch module, it cannot be tested with con-
ventional automotive electrical test equipment. If the
hazard switch module is believed to be faulty, replace
the switch with a known good unit to confirm system
operation.
