DTC B257D 00

- Right Headlamp Assembly Malfunction

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The headlamp control module calculates the headlamp angle and sends commands to the left and right adaptive forward lighting system headlamp

actuators. The headlamp actuators drive the headlamps to the position commanded by the headlamp control module. The headlamp control module

monitors the headlamp actuator motor control circuits for proper circuit continuity and for shorts to ground or voltage. If a malfunction is detected,

a DTC will be stored in memory and the driver will be notified with a message displayed over the driver information center located on the

instrument cluster.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The headlamps are turned ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B257C 00

The headlamp control module detects a fault in the left low beam control circuit or an open/high resistance is the left low beam ground circuit.

B257D 00

The headlamp control module detects a fault in the right low beam control circuit or an open/high resistance is the right low beam ground circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The appropriate headlamp is inoperative.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.
