Test N: The Parking, Rear Or License Plate Lamps Are On Continuously

PINPOINT TEST N: THE PARKING, REAR OR LICENSE PLATE LAMPS ARE ON CONTINUOUSLY


N1-N3:






N4-N7:






Normal Operation
The smart junction box (SJB) sends a voltage reference signal to the headlamp switch through circuit 1401 (BK/LG). When the headlamp switch is placed in the PARKING LAMPS ON position, the SJB provides voltage to the parking, license plate and side marker lamps.

DTC B1470 - sets when the SJB detects a short to ground from the headlamp switch input circuit (parking lamps).

DTC B2035 - sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage to the side marker lamps voltage supply circuit.

DTC B2491 - sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage to the RH front parking lamp voltage supply circuit.

DTC B2493 - sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage to the LH front parking lamp voltage supply circuit.

DTC B2523 - sets when the SJB detects a short to voltage to the license plate lamp and both tail lamp voltage supply circuits.
