1. Headlamp Leveling Malfunction |
Each headlamp assembly contains a headlamp leveling motor that is controlled by the headlamp control module. The front and rear headlamp leveling sensors provide the headlamp control module with suspension position information. Each sensor receives a 5-volt reference, signal, and low reference circuits from the headlamp control module. The sensors are connected to the control arms of the front and rear suspension. As the vehicle travels, the suspension compresses and rebounds moving the suspension position sensor arms. This causes the signal output of the sensor to change. The headlamp control module compares the information from both suspension position sensors and adjusts the headlamp leveling as needed. The headlamp control module is wired to each headlamp leveling motor with 4 directional motor control circuits.
• | Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts. |
• | Ignition in the ON or RUN position. |
• | Headlamps ON. |
The headlamp control module detects a short to voltage on the front headlamp leveling sensor 5 volt reference circuit.
The headlamp control module detects a short to ground on the front headlamp leveling sensor 5 volt reference circuit.
• | The headlamp control module disables the headlamp leveling system. |
• | The driver information center (DIC) will display AFL Lamps Need Service. |
• | On vehicles equipped with both AFL and headlamp leveling, the AFL system will remain active. |
• | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 50 consecutive malfunction-free cycles have occurred. |

⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp control module. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp control module. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp control module. |
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp control module. |
⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the headlamp control module. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
