Pinpoint Test AN: The Headlamps On Warning Chime Is Inoperative

Normal Operation

The Body Control Module (BCM) receives the headlamp switch status from the headlamp switch and the LH front door ajar status from the LH front door ajar switch through hardwired circuitry. The headlamps on warning chime sounds when the LH front door is opened with the ignition off, and the headlamp switch is in the PARK or HEADLAMP ON position. The BCM communicates the headlamp on chime request to the IPC over the High Speed Controller Area Network (HS-CAN) when the headlamps or parking lamps are on with the ignition off and the driver door is opened.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Interior lighting concern
- BCM
- IPC
