switch requesting to illuminate the illumination lamps to a desired intensity. When this occurs, the BCM
directly sends a variable voltage based on the I/P dimmer switch position on the instrument panel lamps
dimming supply voltage circuit, controls illumination lamps dimming control circuit, and the LED dimming
signal circuit.

Voltage for the instrument panel lamps dimming supply voltage circuit, controls illumination lamps dimming
control circuit, and the LED dimming signal circuits is from the TBC 2 A fuse in the instrument panel fuse
block directly through the BCM to these circuits.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The battery voltage must be between 9.0-16.0 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The controls illumination lamps dimming control circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to voltage.

The instrument panel lamps dimming supply voltage circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to
voltage.

There is a loss of the instrument panel fuse block TBC 2 A battery supply voltage to the BCM for 1
second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The illumination lamps will not operate or are always ON.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

This DTC will clear on current status after the condition for setting the fault is corrected.

A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles without a fault present.

History and current DTCs can be cleared using a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

Perform a visual inspection for loose or poor connections at all related components. Refer to Testing for
Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems.

A short to ground in the following circuits will cause the TBC 2 A fuse to open.

Battery positive voltage from the instrument panel fuse block TBC 2 A fuse.

An open in the TBC 2 A fuse will cause the BCM to set the following DTC:

DTC B2615

Circuit Description

The body control module (BCM) receives a ground signal from the door jamb, liftglass/liftgate if equipped, or
courtesy lamp switches requesting courtesy/dome lamp illumination. When this occurs, the BCM directly sends
a voltage through the courtesy lamp supply voltage circuit illuminating the courtesy/dome lamps.

Voltage for the courtesy lamp supply voltage circuit as well as the backup lamp supply voltage circuit is from
the left instrument panel fuse block TBC 2B 15-amp fuse directly through the BCM to these circuits.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The battery voltage must be between 9.0-16.0 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

When the BCM receives a courtesy lamp illumination request signal and the courtesy lamp supply
voltage circuit is shorted to ground.

When the BCM is not receiving a courtesy lamp illumination request signal and the courtesy lamp supply
voltage circuit is open only to the first splice from the BCM or the circuit is shorted to voltage.

There is a loss of the instrument panel fuse block TBC 2B battery supply voltage to the BCM for 1
second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The courtesy dome lamps will not operate or are always ON.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

Replace the headlamp and panel dimmer switch. Refer to Headlamp
Switch Replacement .
