B1630-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH

B1630-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH



For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.


Theory of Operation

The Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) receives a bus message requesting low beam lamp illumination. When this bus message is received, the TIPM provides a voltage output through the low beam driver circuit. The low beam driver circuit connects to the Low Beam Lamp. A headlamp return signal circuit is used instead of a ground circuit.


Possible Causes

(L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM DRIVER CIRCUIT OPEN
(L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM DRIVER CIRCUIT SHORTED TO VOLTAGE
(L910) RIGHT HEADLAMP RETURN SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN
RIGHT LOW BEAM BULB
TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM)

1. INTERMITTENT CONDITION


1. Turn the ignition on.
2. With the scan tool, clear all DTCs.
3. Turn the Headlamps on.
4. With the scan tool, read DTCs.


Does the scan tool display DTC: B1630-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH?

Yes


No


2. CHECK THE (L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE IN THE HARNESS



1. Turn the Headlamps off.
2. Turn the ignition off.
3. Disconnect the Right Headlamp Lamp harness connector.
4. Disconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
5. Turn the ignition on.
6. Measure the voltage between ground and the (L44) Right Low Beam Driver circuit.


Is there any voltage present?

Yes


No


3. CHECK THE TIPM FOR CORRECT OPERATION



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Reconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
3. Connect a 12-volt test light between the (L44) Right Low Beam Driver circuit and (L910) Right Headlamp Return Signal circuit in the Right Headlamp Lamp harness connector.
4. Turn the ignition on.
5. Turn the Headlamps on.


Does the test light illuminate brightly?

Yes


No


4. CHECK THE (L44) RIGHT LOW BEAM DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN IN THE HARNESS



1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the TIPM C3 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (L44) Right Low Beam Driver circuit between the Right Headlamp Lamp harness connector and the TIPM C3 harness connector.


Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

Yes


No


5. CHECK THE (L910) RIGHT HEADLAMP RETURN SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN IN THE HARNESS



1. Measure the resistance of the (L910) Right Headlamp Return Signal circuit between the Right Headlamp Lamp harness connector and the TIPM C3 harness connector.


Is the resistance below 5.0 Ohms?

Yes


No
