Here's a subject I know has come up before. Let's see if anyone has an answer this time:
I have a 2001 S-10 that I drive for work. If I push the dome lamp bypass (disable) switch 4 times in 5-6 seconds, I get an audible ding, and all forward pointing lights (driving and regular headlamps) will turn off. Another 4 pushes and they will turn back on. This works at any time.
My '99 S-10 Blazer does not have this feature, even though the interior is identical. The headlamp switch modules are identical. I know the light disable feature in not part of the switch module.
Question 1: Is there a way to add this feature to my '99 by reprogramming the BCM? I've spoken to several mechanics at one of the local dealerships and they all looked at me like I was speaking a foreign language or something.
Question 2: I noticed that there is a second wiring harness plugged into a dead-end slot on the headlamp switch module (no electrical connection). What is this for? Is there some option that my LS does not come standard with? Maybe fog lamps? I have yet to see a headlamp switch module with something in the same location as that harness...
