mounted to the back of the quarter panel on each
side of the tailgate at the rear of the vehicle. The
park lamps include a license plate lamp or lamps,
depending upon the requirements of the market for
which the vehicle is manufactured. Vehicles with a
license plate tub located near the left end of the rear
bumper fascia have a single lamp, while vehicles
with a license plate module located on the spare tire
carrier have two license plate lamps. In certain mar-
kets where required, a front position lamp that is
integral to each headlamp unit is illuminated instead
of the front park lamps and front side marker lamps
in the park lamps circuit; and, a rectangular, red
reflector is located on the rear bumper fascia just
inboard and below each rear lamp unit.
²Rear Fog Lamps- Rear fog lamps are avail-
able only in certain markets where they are required

knob on its end with a flattened face to allow it to be
easily rotated. On vehicles equipped with optional
front fog lamps, the knob on the end of left control
stalk can also be pulled outward to select those
lamps. Each control stalk also features a knurled
control ring located just below the control knob. The
left control stalk is dedicated to providing driver con-
trols for the interior and exterior lighting systems,
while the right control stalk is dedicated to providing
driver controls for the front and rear wiper systems.
Two integral connector receptacles on the forward
facing surface of the multi-function switch housing
connect the switch two the vehicle electrical system
through two take outs and connectors of the instru-
ment panel wire harness. The left connector recepta-
cle contains nine terminal pins for the lighting
control circuits of the switch, while the right connec-
tor receptacle contains six terminal pins for the
wiper control circuits of the switch. The multi-func-
tion switch cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
LEFT CONTROL STALK The left (lighting) control
stalk of the multi-function switch supports the fol-
lowing functions and features:
²Front Fog Lamps- For vehicles so equipped,
the internal circuitry and hardware of the multi-
function switch left (lighting) control stalk provide
detent switching for the optional front fog lamps.
²Headlamps- The internal circuitry and hard-
ware of the multi-function switch left (lighting) con-trol stalk provide detent switching for the
headlamps.
²Headlamp Beam Selection- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch left
(lighting) control stalk provide detent switching for
selection of the headlamp high or low beams.
²Headlamp Optical Horn- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch left
(lighting) control stalk includes momentary switching
of the headlamp high beam circuits to provide an
optical horn feature (sometimes referred to as flash-
to-pass), which allows the vehicle operator to momen-
tarily flash the headlamp high beams as an optical
signalling device.
²Interior Lamps Defeat- The internal circuitry
and hardware of the multi-function switch left (light-
ing) control stalk provide detent switching to defeat
the illumination of all interior courtesy lamps when a
door, the rear flip-up glass, or the tailgate are
opened.
²Interior Lamps On- The internal circuitry and
hardware of the multi-function switch left (lighting)
control stalk provide detent switching to simulta-
neously illuminate all interior courtesy lamps.
²Panel Lamps Dimming- The internal cir-
cuitry and hardware of the multi-function switch left
(lighting) control stalk provide simultaneous adjust-
able control of the illumination intensity of all instru-
ment panel lighting at one of six available
illumination intensity levels.

MULTI-FUNCTION SWITCH (Continued)

²Headlamp Optical Horn- The left (lighting)
control stalk of the multi-function switch is pulled
towards the steering wheel to just before a detent, to
momentarily activate the headlamp optical horn fea-
ture. The high beams will remain illuminated until
the control stalk is released. The multi-function
switch provides a ground output on a high beam
relay control circuit to energize the headlamp high
beam relay (Daytime Running Lamp relay in Cana-
dian vehicles) in the Junction Block (JB) as required.
²Interior Lamps Defeat- The control ring on
the multi-function switch left (lighting) control stalk
is rotated to a full rearward (clockwise) detent to
defeat the illumination of all interior courtesy lamps.
The multi-function switch provides a resistor multi-
plexed output to the Body Control Module (BCM) on
a panel lamps dimmer switch mux circuit, and the
BCM responds by de-energizing its internal courtesy
lamp driver circuit.
²Interior Lamps On- The control ring on the
multi-function switch left (lighting) control stalk is
rotated to a full forward (counterclockwise) detent to
illuminate all interior courtesy lamps. The multi-
function switch provides a resistor multiplexed out-
put to the Body Control Module (BCM) on a panel
lamps dimmer switch mux circuit, and the BCM
responds by energizing its internal courtesy lamp
driver circuit.
²Panel Lamps Dimming- The control ring on
the multi-function switch left (lighting) control stalk
is rotated to one of six minor intermediate detents to
simultaneously select the desired illumination inten-
sity of all adjustable instrument panel and instru-
ment cluster lighting. The control ring is rotated
rearward (clockwise) to dim, or forward (counter-
clockwise) to brighten. The multi-function switch pro-
vides a resistor multiplexed output to the Body
Control Module (BCM) on a panel lamps dimmer
switch mux circuit, and the BCM responds by send-
ing an electronic panel lamps dimming level message
to the ElectroMechanical Instrument Cluster (EMIC)
over the Programmable Communications Interface
(PCI) data bus. The EMIC electronic circuitry then
provides the proper PWM output to the cluster illu-
mination lamps and the VFD on the EMIC circuit
board, then provides a matching PWM output on the
hard wired fused panel lamps dimmer switch signal
circuit.
²Parade Mode- The control ring on the multi-
function switch left (lighting) control stalk is rotated
to an intermediate detent that is one detent rear-
ward (clockwise) from the full forward (counterclock-
wise) detent to select the Parade mode. The multi-
function switch provides a resistor multiplexed
output to the Body Control Module (BCM) on a panel
lamps dimmer switch mux circuit, and the BCMresponds by sending an electronic panel lamps dim-
ming level message to the ElectroMechanical Instru-
ment Cluster (EMIC) over the Programmable
Communications Interface (PCI) data bus. The EMIC
electronic circuitry then provides the proper PWM
output to the cluster illumination lamps and the
VFD on the EMIC circuit board, then provides a
matching PWM output on the hard wired fused panel
lamps dimmer switch signal circuit to illuminate all
lamps at full (daylight) intensity with the exterior
lamps turned On.
²Park Lamps- The control knob on the end of
the multi-function switch left (lighting) control stalk
is rotated forward (counterclockwise) to its first
detent from the Off position to activate the park
lamps. The multi-function switch provides a resistor
multiplexed output to the Body Control Module
(BCM) on a headlamp switch sense circuit, and the
BCM responds by energizing or de-energizing the
park lamp relay in the Junction Block (JB) as
required.
²Rear Fog Lamps- For vehicles so equipped,
the control knob on the end of the multi-function
switch left (lighting) control stalk is rotated forward
(counterclockwise) to its third detent position to acti-
vate the rear fog lamps. The multi-function switch
provides a resistor multiplexed output to the Body
Control Module (BCM) on a headlamp switch sense
circuit, and the BCM responds by energizing or de-
energizing the rear fog lamp relay in the Junction
Block (JB) as required. Rear fog lamps are optional
only for vehicles manufactured for certain markets,
where they are required.
²Turn Signal Control- The left (lighting) con-
trol stalk of the multi-function switch is moved
upward to activate the right turn signal circuitry,
and, downward to activate the left turn signal cir-
cuitry. The turn signal switch has a detent position
in each direction that provides turn signals with
automatic cancellation, and an intermediate, momen-
tary position in each direction that provides turn sig-
nals only until the left multi-function switch control
stalk is released. When the control stalk is moved to
a turn signal switch detent position, the cancel
actuator extends toward the center of the steering
column. A turn signal cancel cam that is integral to
the clockspring rotates with the steering wheel and
the cam lobes contact the cancel actuator when it is
extended from the left multi-function switch. When
the steering wheel is rotated during a turning
maneuver, one of the two turn signal cancel cam
lobes will contact the turn signal cancel actuator. The
cancel actuator latches against the cancel cam rota-
tion in the direction opposite that which is signaled.
In other words, if the left turn signal detent is
selected, the lobes of the cancel cam will ratchet past

TRAILER TOW WIRING
DESCRIPTION
Vehicles equipped with an optional factory-in-
stalled (not dealer-installed or port-installed) trailer
towing package have a rear body wire harness that
includes an integral trailer tow wiring take out that
connects to a heavy duty, sealed, 7-pin trailer tow
connector located on a bracket on the trailer hitch
receiver (Fig. 68). This harness includes a second
take out with a trailer tow relay connector bank and
four trailer tow relays that isolate the right turn sig-
nal, left turn signal, and brake lamp circuits of the
vehicle from the electrical system of the trailer. The
fourth relay in the connector bank provides a fused
ignition switch output (run) source of battery current
to the trailer tow connector through a trailer tow
relay output circuit. The package also includes an
adapter harness (stored beneath the left rear seat
cushion of the vehicle when it is shipped from the
factory) that adapts the 7-pin trailer tow connector to
a standard, light-duty, 4-pin trailer tow connector.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The wir-
ing information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and location views for the various wire har-
ness connectors, splices and grounds.

The tailgate will lock and can not be unlocked if
the rear wiper switch is activated. The tailgate will
also lock if battery power is lost and then restored.
The tailgate/flip-up glass will not function with the
battery discharged or disconnected.
COMBINATION FLASHER
This flasher can be energized by the BCM to flash
all of the park/turn signal lamps as a optical alert for
the RKE panic function and, if the Flash Lights with
Lock programmable feature is enabled, as an optical
verification for the RKE lock event.
HORN RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to sound
the horns as an audible alert for the RKE panic func-
tion and, if the Sound Horn on Lock programmable
feature is enabled, as an audible verification for the
RKE lock event.
LOW BEAM HEADLAMP RELAY
This relay can be energized by the BCM to flash
the headlamp low beams as an optical alert for the
RKE panic function.
OPERATION
POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) locks or unlocks
the doors when an actuation input signal from a door
lock switch or Remote Keyless Entry Module (RKE)
is received. The BCM turns on the output drivers
and provides a voltage level to the door lock motor
for a specified time. All passenger doors can be
locked or unlocked using a mechanical button
mounted on the door trim panel. The front passenger
doors and tailgate can be locked or unlocked by using
the key cylinder (tailgate cylinder does not lock/un-
lock vehicle. It only unlocks the tailgate). The tail-
gate will lock and can not be unlocked if the rear
wiper switch is activated (this prevents the wiper
from operating when the tailgate is ajar). The tail-
gate will also lock if battery power is lost and then
restored.
AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
When the automatic door locks are ENABLED the
door locks will lock when the vehicle is moving at
about 25.7 Km/h (15 mph), all doors are closed and
the accelerator pedal is depressed. This feature can
be switched ON or OFF as desired. When the system
is DISABLED the door locks will operate normally,
but will not lock automatically when the vehicle is
rolling. Once the automatic door locks have been
actuated, they will not try to lock the doors again
until a door is opened.
DOOR LOCK INHIBIT
If the key is in the ignition, in any position, and
either front door is ajar, the doors can not be locked,
but the unlock function still operates. Pressing the
RKE lock/unlock button under these conditions will
result in a normal lock/unlock activation.
After the key is removed from the Ignition Switch,
or the doors are closed, the power door locks will
operate normally.
DOOR LOCK CIRCUIT PROTECTION
The BCM controls the door lock relays. If the door
lock switch is actuated continuously for more than
five seconds the BCM will turn the output driver
OFF (the BCM would consider the switch stuck).
Each lock motor is protected with a Positive Temper-
ature Coefficient device that prevents motor burn
out.
REMOTE KEYLESS ENTRY
²LOCK: Pressing the LOCK button locks all
doors, sounds horn (chirp) if enabled, and arms the
Vehicle Theft Security System, if enabled. The chirp
verifies that the RKE receiver has sent a message to
the BCM for door lock operation. If a door has not
been closed before pressing the LOCK button, the
vehicle may not be secured and the VTSS (if
equipped) will not arm until the door is closed.
²UNLOCK: Pressing the UNLOCK button once
will unlock the driver's door and activate the illumi-
nated entry system and disarm Vehicle Theft Secu-
rity System, if equipped. Pressing the UNLOCK
button twice within five seconds will unlock all doors.
²TAILGATE: Pressing the TAILGATE BUTTON
unlocks the tailgate remotely and opens the flip-up
glass.
²PANIC: Pressing the PANIC button sounds the
horns at half second intervals, flashes the exterior
lamps, and turns ON the interior lamps. The panic
alarm will remain on for three minutes, or until the
PANIC button is actuated again or the ignition
switch is turned to the RUN position.
The Remote Keyless Entry Module is capable of
retaining the transmitter Vehicle Access Code(s) in
its memory even after vehicle power has been inter-
rupted.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - POWER LOCKS
The Body Control Module (BCM) enters a
reduced power mode after the key is turned
OFF. All diagnosis and testing of the power lock
system must be done with the key in the ON
position unless otherwise stated.
The most reliable, efficient, and accurate
means to diagnose the power lock system
requires the use of a DRBIIItscan tool and the
