Diagnostic Test
1. INSPECT THE RIGHT TAIL/STOP LAMP BULB
NOTE: If all stop lamps are inoperative, inspect Fuse 2 located in the Illumination Control Module/IP Fuse Block. If the fuse is open, repair the cause of the open fuse before continuing.
Turn the ignition off.
Remove the Right Tail/Stop Lamp bulb and inspect for an open filament.
Is the Bulb filament open?
Yes
- Replace the Right Tail/Stop Lamp bulb. Tail Lamp Unit - Removal.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test
No
- Go to 2
2. MEASURE FUSED B(+) CIRCUIT RESISTANCE
Disconnect the Right Rear Lamp Assembly harness connector.
Disconnect the Illumination Control Module harness connector.
NOTE: Check connectors - Clean/repair as necessary.
Measure the resistance between the Right Rear Lamp Assembly harness connector and the Illumination Control Module harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Go to 3
No
- Repair the Fused B(+) circuit for an open between the Right Rear Lamp Assembly and the Illumination Control Module.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test
3. MEASURE RIGHT TAIL/STOP LAMP VOLTAGE
Connect the Illumination Control Module harness connector.
Depress the brake pedal.
Measure the voltage between the Right Rear Lamp Assembly harness connector cavity 4 and ground.
Is the voltage above 10 volts?
Yes
- Go to 4
No
- Replace the Illumination Control Module.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test
4. MEASURE RIGHT TAIL/STOP LAMP GROUND CIRCUIT RESISTANCE
Release the brake pedal.
Measure the resistance between the Right Rear Lamp Assembly harness connector and ground.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Ensure that the Right Tail/Stop Lamp bulb is installed properly and replace the bulb socket if necessary.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test
No
- Repair the Right Rear Lamp Assembly ground circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Body Verification Test
