Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
When the turn signal/multifunction switch is placed in the headlamp position, ground is applied to the body control module (BCM) through the headlamp low beam signal circuit. The BCM then applies ground to the headlamp low beam relay control circuit which energizes the low beam relay. With the low beam relay energized, the switch contacts close allowing battery voltage to flow through the LOW BEAM fuses to the low beam headlamps. Ground for the left headlamp is supplied at G101 and the right headlamp receives ground at G102.
