  • Headlamp switch
  • Dome/map combination
  • Interior/reading lamps
  • Footwell lamps
  • Luggage compartment lamp
  • Glove compartment lamp
  • Vanity mirrors
  • Door ajar switches

The interior lighting system consists of 2 subsystems:

  • Interior lamps
  • Demand lamps

The interior lamps are controlled by the LCM. The interior lamp subsystem consists of the footwell lamps, map lamps and the overhead console lamps. The LCM controls the interior lamps by providing power through circuit 53 (BK/LB).

The demand lamps subsystem consists of the glove compartment lamp, luggage compartment lamp, front map lamps, rear reading lamps, and the left and right vanity mirror lamps. Each of these lamps are switched individually and use a separate ground circuit.

Both subsystems use the same power supply circuit through the central junction box (CJB) fuse 1 (15A).
