2017 Sport, Which color wire in headlight assembly for amber grill lights?


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

which color wire/pin on the harness to the headlights is “hot” for the side marker/parking lights (the ones on the side of the headlight assembly furthest from the middle of the car? Trying to wire amber leds in a raptor grill that should be in sync with them and cant find a good diagram of where to splice into, thank you! I think i'd need a ground as well? Prefer to tap into the drivers side headlights! Thank you!

Attached below as PDF documents are Headlamp-related 2017 Edge Wiring diagrams, Connector details and Ground circuit termination locations , and an Exterior Lighting system description, which provides the following explanation...

 

Placing your device cursor over underlined acronyms may yield a full-words popup description of those acronyms.

 

Parking, Rear, and License Plate Lamps

Parking Lamps

The BCM monitors the headlamp switch position by sending voltage signals on multiple circuits to the headlamp switch. There is one circuit for each headlamp switch position. At any given time, one of the signal circuits is switched to ground to indicate the headlamp switch position.

 

If the BCM detects a fault from the headlamp switch or loses communication with the headlamp switch, the BCM turns the parking and headlamps on. This is normal behavior of the BCM when a fault has been detected with the inputs from the headlamp switch.

 

When the BCM receives an input requesting the parking lamps on, it provides voltage to the parking lamps.

 

The BCM also provides Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection of the parking lamps output circuits. When an excessive current draw is detected, the BCM disables the affected parking lamps circuit driver.

 

Signature Lamps

Each of the signature lamp assemblies consist of multiple Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) that receive fused voltage when the ignition is in ON or START.

 

When the signature lamps receive fused voltage from the BJB , and the parking lamps are OFF, the signature lamps illuminate at full intensity. When the parking lamps are activated and the BCM sends a second voltage to the signature lamps to indicate the parking lamps are activated, the signature lamps operate at a reduced intensity.

 

Field Effect Transistor (FET) Protection

The BCM utilizes an Field Effect Transistor (FET) protective circuit strategy for many of its outputs, for example, lamp output circuits. Output loads (current level) are monitored for excessive current (typically short circuits) and are shut down (turns off the voltage or ground provided by the module) when a fault event is detected.

 

A Field Effect Transistor (FET) is a type of transistor that the control module software uses to control and monitor current flow on module outputs. The Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection strategy prevents module damage in the event of excessive current flow.

 

Output loads (current level) are monitored for excessive current draw (typically short circuits). When a fault event is detected the Field Effect Transistor (FET) turns off and a short circuit DTC sets. The module resets the Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection and allows the circuit to function when the fault is corrected or the ignition state is cycled off and then back on.

 

When the excessive circuit load occurs often enough, the module shuts down the output until a repair procedure is carried out. Each Field Effect Transistor (FET) protected circuit has 3 predefined levels of short circuit tolerance based on a module lifetime level of fault events based upon the durability of the Field Effect Transistor (FET). If the total tolerance level is determined to be 600 fault events, the 3 predefined levels would be 200, 400 and 600 fault events.

 

When each level is reached, the DTC associated with the short circuit sets along with DTC U1000:00. These Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) can be cleared using the module on-demand self-test, then the Clear DTC operation on the scan tool (if the on-demand test shows the fault corrected). The module never resets the fault event counter to zero and continues to advance the fault event counter as short circuit fault events occur.

 

If the number of short circuit fault events reach the third level, then Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) U1000:00 and U3000:49 set along with the associated short circuit DTC . DTC U3000:49 cannot be cleared and the module must be replaced after the repair.

 

Please consider posting a photo or two of your Raptor-style grille, after its installation is complete.

 

Good luck!
