The demand lamps subsystem consists of

  1. Interior lamps (map lamps)
  2. Vanity mirror lamps

The demand lamps provide illumination to specific areas within the vehicle when needed.

The BCM energizes the interior light relay to supply voltage to the demand lamps when the battery saver feature is not active.

The ambient lighting subsystem consists of

The ambient lighting is controlled using the buttons and knob on the overhead console.
