integral beam select switch circuitry, or to an intermediate, momentary position before the detent to actuate the optical horn feature. Each time the
control stalk is actuated to a detent position, the opposite headlamp beam from what is currently selected will be energized. Each time the control
stalk is actuated to the momentary position with the headlamps turned OFF, the headlamp high beams will be illuminated for as long as the control
stalk is held in this position. The multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC responds by sending electronic beam select
switch status messages to the FCM over the CAN data bus. The FCM energizes or de-energizes the selected LOW or HIGH beam circuits.

Turn Signal Control - The control stalk of the multi-function switch is moved upward to activate the RIGHT turn signal circuitry, and, downward
to activate the LEFT turn signal circuitry. The turn signal switch has a detent position in each direction that provides turn signals with automatic
cancellation, and an intermediate, momentary position in each direction that automatically provides three turn signal blinks as a LANE CHANGE
feature when the control stalk is tapped or will energize the turn signals for as long as the control stalk is held in the momentary position. When the
control stalk is moved to a detent turn signal switch position, the cancel actuator extends toward the center of the steering column. A turn signal
cancel cam that is integral to the clockspring rotates with the steering wheel and the cam lobes contact the cancel actuator when it is extended from
the multi-function switch. When the steering wheel is rotated during a turning maneuver, one of the two turn signal cancel cam lobes will contact
the turn signal cancel actuator. The cancel actuator latches against the cancel cam rotation in the direction opposite that which is signaled. If the
LEFT turn signal detent is selected, the lobes of the cancel cam will ratchet past the cancel actuator when the steering wheel is rotated to the left,
but will unlatch the cancel actuator as the steering wheel rotates to the right and returns to center, which will cancel the turn signal event and
release the control stalk from the detent so it returns to the neutral OFF position. When a turn signal is activated, the multi-function switch
provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC responds by sending electronic turn signal switch status messages to the FCM over the CAN data
bus. The FCM energizes and flashes or de-energizes the selected left or right turn signal circuits.
-
Washer Control - The control knob on the end of the multi-function switch control stalk is depressed towards the steering column to momentarily
activate the washer pump in the WASH mode. The washer pump will continue to operate in the washer mode until the control knob is released or
for 10 continuous seconds, whichever occurs first. The multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the EMIC responds by sending
electronic washer switch status messages to the FCM over the CAN data bus. The FCM responds by energizing or de-energizing the washer pump
in the washer mode.
-
Wiper Control - The control knob on the end of the multi-function switch control stalk is rotated to one of the continuous wiper detents, to one of
five intermittent wiper detents, or to the OFF position to select the wiper mode. The multi-function switch provides an output to the EMIC, and the
EMIC responds by sending electronic wiper switch status messages to the FCM over the CAN data bus. The FCM responds by energizing or
de-energizing the wiper on/off and high/low relays in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) for wiper system control.
The multi-function switch as well as the hard wired inputs and outputs of the switch may be diagnosed using conventional diagnostic tools and
procedures. Refer to the appropriate wiring information.
