  The Smart Junction Box (SJB) sends voltage signals to the headlamp switch to monitor the OFF, PARKING LAMPS ON and HEADLAMPS ON positions. At any given time, the headlamp switch routes one of the input circuits to ground.

The Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) set when the SJB detects multiple headlamp switch inputs active at the same time.
