DAYTIME LIGHT SYSTEM
Component Description
INFOID:0000000003776151
After starting the engine with the parking brake released and the lighting switch in the OFF or 1ST position, the
headlamp high beam automatically turns on at a reduced intensity. With the lighting switch in the 2nd position
or with autolamps ON, the headlamps function the same as conventional light systems.
OPERATION
The BCM monitors inputs from the parking brake switch and the combination switch to determine when to acti-
vate the daytime light system. The BCM sends a dayti me light request to the IPDM E/R via the CAN commu-
nication lines. The IPDM E/R grounds the daytime light relay which in turn, provides power to the ground side
of the LH high beam lamp. Power flows backward through the LH high beam lamp to the IPDM E/R, through
the high beam fuses, through the RH high beam lamp circuit to the RH high beam lamp and on to ground. The
high beam lamps are wired in series which causes them to illuminate at a reduced intensity.

HEADLAMP (HI) CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000005867521
The IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) controls the headlamp LH high and head-
lamp RH high relays based on inputs from the BCM via the CAN communication lines. When the headlamp LH
high and headlamp RH high relays are energized, power flows through fuse\
s 34 and 35, located in the IPDM
E/R. Power then flows to the front combination lamps to the headlamp high beam.
