Circuit/System Testing

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Cadillac XLR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the high beam relay.
  2. Connect a test lamp between the high beam relay control circuit terminal H1 and the voltage supply circuit terminal F2.
  3. Command the high beam headlamps ON and OFF with the high beam switch. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
    • If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
    • If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
  4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the high beam relay.
