HEADLAMP (HI) CIRCUIT
DescriptionINFOID:0000000009463577
The IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution modul e engine room) controls the headlamp high relay based on
inputs from the BCM over the CAN communication li nes. When the headlamp high relay is energized, power
flows through fuses 34 and 35, located in the IPDM E/R. Power then flows to the front combination lamps to
the headlamp high beam.
Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000009463578
