DTC Descriptor
DTC B3650 08
High Beam Request Signal Circuit Performance - Signal Invalid
Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
When the low beam headlamps are on and the turn signal/multifunction switch
is placed in the high beam
position, ground is applied to the body control module (BCM) through the high
beam signal circuit. The BCM responds to the high beam request by applying
ground to the high beam relay control circuit which energizes
the high beam relay. With the high beam relay energized, the switch contacts
close allowing battery voltage to
flow through the high beam fuses to the high beam control circuits illuminating
the high beam headlamps.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Battery voltage must be between 9-16 V.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM detects a short to ground in the turn signal/multifunction switch
high beam signal circuit.
Actions Taken When the DTC Sets
The high beam headlamps will not operate.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
- The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
- A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition
cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, scan tool disconnected, all doors closed, all accessories
OFF, disconnect the harness
connector at the S78 Turn Signal/Multifunction Switch. It may take up to 2
minutes for all vehicle
systems to power down.
- Test for less than 15 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 3 and
ground.
- Ignition OFF.
- Test for less than 2 ohms in the ground circuit end to end.
- If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms, repair the open/high resistance in the ground
connection.
- If less than 15 ohms
- Ignition ON.
- Verify the scan tool High Beam Select Switch parameter is Inactive.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K9 Body Control
Module.
- Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 2 and
ground.
- If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the
circuit.
- If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- If Inactive
- Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2
and the ground circuit terminal 3.
- Verify the scan tool High Beam Select Switch parameter is Active.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X3 harness connector at the K9 Body Control
Module, ignition ON.
- Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground.
- If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
- If less than 1 V
- Test for less than 2 ohms in the signal circuit end to end.
- If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
- If less than 2 ohms, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
- If Active
- Test or replace the S78 Turn Signal/Multifunction Switch.
