Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Chevrolet Trax and 2016 Buick Encore. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
When the low beam headlamps are on and the turn signal/multifunction switch is placed in the high beam position, ground is applied to the body control module (BCM) through the high beam signal circuit. The BCM responds to the high beam request by applying ground to the high beam relay control circuit which energizes the high beam relay. With the high beam relay energized, the switch contacts close allowing battery voltage to flow through the high beam fuses to the high beam control circuits illuminating the high beam headlamps.
