WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Mercury Marauder, 2003 Mercury Grand Marquis, and 2003 Ford Crown Victoria. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The LCM eliminates the electronic interference and heat associated with the thermoelectric devices used previously. The LCM is a microprocessor-based module that controls several vehicle subsystems. It responds to electrical input signals from various switches, sensors, and external modules.
LCM exterior lighting subsystem functions include:
- Headlamps with autolamps (if equipped)
- Turn signal lamps/hazard flasher lamps
- Cornering lamps
- Parking lamps
- Battery saver
