    Abstract: A motor vehicle electrical power system includes a light source powered from an electrical power source. At key on the light source is tested to determine operational readiness and the type of the light source. At key on the switch is cycled to apply a pulse width modulated energization to the light source. A reference copy of the pulse width modulated signal is available. A comparator having first and second inputs provides a comparison of the pulse width modulated signal applied to the light source and reference. Variation in the rate of change of voltage across the light source may be compared with the reference to characterize the light source as a light emitting diode or another type of source, usually an incandescent bulb.
