DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) P1637 is activated when:

- An improper voltage level has been detected on the alternator lamp driver circuit.

- Above conditions for at least 30 seconds.

The GM Service Manual provides step-by-step diagnostic procedure. It would take me several hours to type it all in....
