When turning on the headlights the dash lights flash 6 times. The headlights come on as well all other lights except the parking lights, dash lights and tail lights.

I have seen things like this a number of times on these vehicles and replacing the TIPM repaired all of them.

Basically, this is a printed circuit board that has some logic in it and acts as a fuse block as well.

The way to confirm this is to check the voltage coming from the TIPM and see if the power is flashing just like the lights and if it is then I would replace the TIPM.

Here is a guide that will help with this:

I am attaching all the info below for what you will need in order to replace this and test it.

Please run through this and let us know what you find.
