Test I: The Headlamps Are Inoperative With Autolamps On

PINPOINT TEST I: THE HEADLAMPS ARE INOPERATIVE WITH AUTOLAMPS ON

Normal Operation
When the ambient level has reached a point (determined by the internal programming of the vehicle security module [VSM]), 2 internal relays (parking lamp and headlamp) are energized to supply voltage to the exterior lamps. Circuit 196 (DB/OG) supplies voltage to the internal headlamp relay, which in turn supplies voltage to circuit 15 (RD/YE) (for the headlamps) when energized.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- VSM
