LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR
DESCRIPTION
The exterior lighting system for this model include
the following components:
²Backup Lamps
²Brake Lamps
²Daytime Running Lamps
²Front Fog Lamps
²Hazard Warning Lamps
²Headlamps
²Park Lamps
²Turn Signal Lamps
Other components of the exterior lighting system
for this model include:
²Backup Lamp Switch
²Brake Lamp Switch
²Front Control Module
²Front Fog Lamp Relay
²Hazard Switch
²Multi-Function Switch
²Park Lamp Relay
²Trailer Tow Connectors
Some of the interior and exterior lighting functions
are governed by the front control module. The head-
lamp, dome, and door ajar switchs provide signals to
the instrument cluster. The instrument cluster sends
a J1850 message to the front control module to
enable the necessary components for illumination.
Hard wired circuitry connects the exterior lighting
system components to the electrical system of the
vehicle. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
OPERATION
DAYTIME RUNNING LAMPS
Power is reduced using pulse-width modulation to
the high beams, where by the power is switched on
and off rapidly instead of remaining on continuously.
The duration and interval of the power pulses is pro-
grammed into the Front Control Module (FCM).
HEADLAMP SYSTEM
The instrument cluster monitors both the multi-
plexed headlamp and multifunction switches. The
instrument cluster transmits a J1850 bus message to
the front control module (FCM) to activate the head-
lamps. The headlamp system will default to head-
lamps ON position when ignition switch is ON and
when an open or short circuit failure occurs on the
headlamp switch input to the instrument cluster. The
system will return to normal operation when the
open or short is repaired. A fault will be reported by
the Instrument Cluster when a failure occurs on the
dimmer or headlamp switch input.
If the exterior lamps are ON, and the headlamp
switch is in any position other than OFF, with the
ignition switch OFF (LOCK) after 5 minutes, the
Instrument Cluster transmits a message via J1850
informing the the FCM. The FCM will then turn off
the headlamps, park lamps and fog lamps. This fea-
ture (load shed) prevents the vehicle battery from
being discharged when the vehicle lights have been
left ON.
HEADLAMP TIME DELAY SYSTEM
The headlamp time delay system is activated by
turning the headlamps ON (high or low beam) while
the engine is running, turning the ignition switch
OFF, and then turning the headlamp switch OFF

the horn to sound for about three minutes, or until a
second panic message is sent to the instrument clus-
ter. A vehicle speed of about 25.7 kilometers-per-hour
(15 miles-per-hour) will also cancel the panic event.
Refer to the owner's manual for more information
on the features, use and operation of the RKE sys-
tem.
OPERATION
Whenever the vehicle battery power is interrupted,
the Remote Keyless Module (RKE) Module will retain
all vehicle access codes in its memory. When replac-
ing or adding a key fob transmitter (maximum of 4) a
DRB IIItscan tool is required to program the RKE
Module to accept the new Vehicle Access Code if a
customer owned transmitter is not available.
If a functioning transmitter is available, (Refer to 8

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY MODULE
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring 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. Refer to the
proper Body Diagnostic Procedures Manual for test-
ing the Remote Keyless Entry system using a DRB
IIItscan tool.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the instrument cluster (Refer to 8 -
ELECTRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - REMOV-
AL).
(3) Remove remote keyless entry module from
instrument cluster (Fig. 4).
INSTALLATION
(1) Install remote keyless entry module to instru-
ment cluster.
(2) Install instrument cluster (Refer to 8 - ELEC-
TRICAL/INSTRUMENT CLUSTER - INSTALLA-
TION).
(3) Connect the battery negative cable.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - REMOTE KEYLESS
ENTRY TRANSMITTER
Using special tool 9001, first test to ensure that
the transmitter is functioning. Typical testing dis-
tance is 2.5 centimeters (1 inch) for Asian transmit-
ters and 30.5 centimeters (12 inches) for all others.
To test, position the transmitter as shown (Fig. 5).
Press any transmitter button, then test each button
individually. The tool will beep if a radio signal
strength that lights five or more LED's is detected.
Repeat this test three times. If transmitter fails any
of the test refer to the Diagnostic Procedures man-
ual.
