The body control module (BCM) controls the hazard lamps based on inputs from the hazard switch. With the hazard switch closed, a ground path is provided on the hazards switch signal circuit, indicating a hazard lamp request. When this request is seen, the BCM will pulse the turn signal lamp supply voltage circuits, illuminating the turn signal lamps.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the hazard switch.
2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the ground circuit terminal B and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Hazard Lamp Switch parameter is Inactive.

⇒	If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal C for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

4. Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal C and the ground circuit terminal B. Verify the scan tool Hazard Lamp Switch parameter is Active.

⇒	If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or and open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the hazard switch.
