| Circuit/System Description |
The front fog lamp relay is supplied with battery voltage at all times. The front fog lamp switch signal circuit is grounded momentarily by pressing the front fog lamp switch. The body control module (BCM) energizes the front fog lamp relay by applying ground to the front fog lamp relay control circuit. When the front fog lamp relay is energized, the relay switch contacts close and battery voltage is applied through the front fog lamp fuse to the front fog lamp supply voltage circuit which illuminates the front fog lamps.
| Conditions for Running the DTC |
Front fog lamps activated.
| Conditions for Setting the DTC |
The BCM detects a short to voltage on the control circuit.
| Conditions for Clearing the DTC |
The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.

| Circuit/System Verification |
Ignition ON, perform the Front Fog Lamps Relay test. The front fog lamps should be ON/OFF.
| Circuit/System Testing |
| 1. |
Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood and X5 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
|
|
| 2. |
Test for less than 0.3 V between the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood harness connector terminal 19 X2 and ground.
|
|
| 3. |
If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage.
|
|
| 4. |
Test for infinite resistance between the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood harness connector terminal 19 X2 and ground.
|
|
| 5. |
If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to ground.
|
|
| 6. |
Connect the X2 harness connector at the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood.
|
|
| 7. |
Ignition ON, install a 15 A fused jumper at the K9 Body Control Module harness connector X5 and momentarily touch ground with ground with the open end. Verify the Front Fog Lamps Relay activates.
|
|
| 8. |
If the Front Fog Lamps Relay is always active, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood.
|
|
| 9. |
If the Front Fog Lamps Relay is stays inactive, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the X50A Fuse Block - Underhood.
|
|
| 10. |
If all circuits test normal, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
|
|
| Repair Instructions |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
