Marker Lamp: Description and Operation

The park lamp switch is a direct input to the BCM. The BCM sends a PCI data bus message to the IPM informing it to turn on the park and side marker lamps. The park lamp relay is then powered through low side control of the IPM. This circuit is electronically controlled and continuously monitored for malfunctions. The IPM provides power through a high side driver.
