C1182 — Park Lamp Flash Relay Circuit Failure

System: Chassis  |  Type: Manufacturer-Specific  |  Make: Generic

About C1182

C1182 is a manufacturer-specific chassis diagnostic trouble code. It belongs to the C-prefix family of codes, which covers chassis, braking, steering, suspension, or stability-control faults.

When C1182 is stored, the module has detected an electrical-circuit fault in the wiring, connector, or driver associated with the named component.

Scanning & clearing: Chassis (C) codes are stored in the ABS, traction control, or stability-control modules. An enhanced or OEM-level scan tool is usually required to read and clear them.

C1182 is a manufacturer-specific code. The same code string on a different make may have a different meaning. Always confirm the code's definition against the vehicle's service information for the specific make and model under test.

Code Information

The park lamp flash relay is controlled by a body or security control module to flash the parking lamps for functions such as lock and unlock confirmation, arming and disarming the antitheft system, and panic or alarm signalling. The module energises the relay control circuit and monitors it for correct operation. DTC C1182 sets when the module detects a circuit failure on the park lamp flash relay circuit, such as an open circuit, a short to ground or power, or feedback that is out of the expected range, indicating the relay cannot be controlled reliably. When this code is set the parking lam...
