B2580



DTC B2580

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
When the turn signal/multifunction switch is placed in the headlamps high or flash to pass (FTP) position, ground is applied to the body control module (BCM) through the headlamp high beam signal circuit or the flash to pass switch signal circuit. The BCM then applies ground to the headlamp high beam relay control circuit which energizes the high beam relay, applying battery voltage to the high beam headlamps.
