S&W flashlight already asked, but...Flashlight used to have several modes, now only strobe works can you fix?

Used to go from intense, steady beam, to dimmer beam, to strobe and then S.O.S. Now only strobe, need bright beam most

Bushnell flashlight 20226 making a rattling noise by the head of flashlight i bump it will flicker on and off need to know how to disassemble so i can fix please help thank you.

It sounds like there may be a loose part inside the head of your Bushnell flashlight that is causing the rattling noise. To disassemble the flashlight, you will need to remove the head of the flashlight from the body. This can usually be done by unscrewing the head from the body. You may need to use a tool, such as a small screwdriver or a pair of pliers, to loosen the head. Once the head is removed, you should be able to see the internal components of the flashlight.
To fix the problem, you will need to identify the loose part and secure it in place. This may involve reattaching wires, tightening screws, or replacing a damaged component. If you are not comfortable disassembling the flashlight yourself, or if you are unable to fix the problem, it is recommended to take the flashlight to a professional for repair.

I need a replacement bulb for a Bushnell Model 100400 UPC 029757100405 Square Beam Flashlight.

Try contacting battery sellers like the one below to ask. That flashlight is no longer available for sale online, although you might find a used one on sites such as ebay.

I have a 2005 Buick Rainier. The headlights keep popping on and killing my battery. Would this be caused from the bcm needing to be replaced or headlamp relay?

Probably the HDM - headlamp driver module .
The headlamp driver module (HDM) is an electronic module that provides electrical power to the vehicle low beam headlamps. The HDM is controlled by a pulse width modulated (PWM) ground signal from the body control module (BCM). The BCM determines the desired lamp intensity using the ambient light sensor, multifunction switch and the park brake switch as inputs. In general, the HDM will operate in 1 of 3 modes:
• Reduced Intensity Mode: This mode is used by features that do not require or allow maximum low beam headlamp intensity such as daytime running lights (DRL) (nominal: 85% duty cycle).
• Full Intensity Mode: This mode is used by features that require full low beam headlamp intensity such as low beam headlamp operation in manual or auto modes (nominal: 100% duty cycle).
• Off Mode: This is the default mode of the system that will occur when none of the features described above are active. The BCM will deactivate its PWM output (0% duty cycle) during this mode.

HDM is a relay located in the under hood fuse box . #46

Where is the fuse for my daytime running lights in 2005 envoy xl and what's the possible other reasons I cant turn them on. Just bought it and don't know where manual switch is either

The headlamps may be turned on in 2 different ways. First, when the driver places the headlamp switch in the HEADLAMP position, normal operation occurs. Second, with the headlamp switch is placed in the AUTO position, automatic lamp control (ALC) occurs. During ALC control, the headlamps will be in daytime running lamp (DRL) operation in daylight conditions, or low beam operation in low light conditions. Headlamps

The HDM - is just a relay in the under hood fuse box . That is probably your problem . HDM relay #46 , fuse's HDM fuse's #53 for 4.2 l engine or fuse # 57 for 5.3 l engine . both are 15 amp.

Dim on headlight not working, changed fuse,bulb,relay 15016745,and bulb connector,still want work-2002 trailblazer

Low beam's don't work , how about high beams . Low beam relay is turned on by the BCM - body control module , headlamp switch is a input to the BCM . Your best bet mite be to take it to a qualified repair shop , rather then guessing an replacing parts you don't need . Hooking up a scan tool an checking for DTC'S - diagnostic trouble codes should have been the first step before replacing parts .

In general, the HDM will operate in one of three modes:

• Full Intensity Mode: This mode is used by features that require full low beam headlamp intensity such as low beam headlamp operation in manual, wiper activated headlamp (WAH), or auto modes (nominal: 100% duty cycle).
• Off Mode: This is the default mode of the system that will occur when none of the features described above are active. The BCM will deactivate its PWM output (0% duty cycle) during this mode.

Headlight low beam on my envoy 2006 not working

The headlamp driver module (HDM) is an electronic module that provides electrical power to the vehicle low beam headlamps. The HDM is controlled by a pulse width modulated (PWM) ground signal from the body control module (BCM). The BCM determines the desired lamp intensity using the ambient light sensor, multifunction switch and the park brake switch as inputs. In general, the HDM will operate in 1 of 3 modes:
?€¢
Reduced Intensity Mode: This mode is used by features that do not require or allow maximum low beam headlamp intensity such as daytime running lights (DRL) (nominal: 85% duty cycle).


?€¢
Full Intensity Mode: This mode is used by features that require full low beam headlamp intensity such as low beam headlamp operation in manual or auto modes (nominal: 100% duty cycle).


?€¢
Off Mode: This is the default mode of the system that will occur when none of the features described above are active. The BCM will deactivate its PWM output (0% duty cycle) during this mode.

The normal battery voltage input to the HDM must be between 6 and 16 volts DC to operate. Any deviation to these values could cause improper operation.
Major components of this system are the BCM, HDM, ambient light sensor, multifunction switch, park brake switch and low beam headlamps.
DTC B2575 Headlamp Control Circuit
When the body control module (BCM) senses a request for headlamp or daytime running lamp (DRL) illumination, the BCM sends a pulse width modulated (PWM) ground signal to the low beam headlamp driver module through the low beam headlamp driver module control circuit. The low beam headlamp driver module will illuminate the headlamps, adjusting the intensity based on the PWM signal received
You best bet is to take your vehicle to a ASE certified repair shop or the dealer >

The ambient light sensor is a light sensitive transistor that varies its voltage signal to the body control module (BCM) in response to changes to the outside (ambient) light level.
You should have the modules scanned for codes first off. Not the engine control module .( BCM ) body control module , yes . That's the first thing I always do !
Could be a bad ambient light sensor or the headlamp driver module. You could check voltage at the battery with engine running, should be over 14 volts. If you don't deal with this sort of thing on a regular basis I'd take it to someone who does !
