Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2010 Cadillac SRX. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The BCM monitors the voltage level within the high beam signal circuit and the flash to pass signal circuit. When the turn signal/multifunction switch is moved to the high beam position or to the flash to pass position, the voltage within the appropriate signal circuit drops to less than 1 V. The BCM will detect the voltage drop and will command the headlamp high beams to turn ON or OFF.
