Conditions for Setting the DTC

The rear fog lamp switch signal circuit is active for longer than 10 minutes.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The rear fog lamps will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

* When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history status code.

* A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles or with a scan tool using the clear DTCs function.

System Verification

Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Rear Fog Lamp Switch parameter while turning the rear fog lamp switch ON and OFF. The parameter should

change between Active and Inactive.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the headlamp and panel dimmer switch.

2. Ignition OFF, verify a test lamp illuminates between B+ and the ground circuit terminal 8.

瀚慖f the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Verify the scan tool Rear Fog Lamp Switch parameter displays Inactive.

瀚慖f not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 6 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the XBCM.

4. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 6 and the ground circuit terminal 8. Verify the scan tool Rear Fog Lamp

Switch parameter is Active.

瀚慖f not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the

XBCM.

5. If all circuits test normal, replace the headlamp and panel dimmer switch.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.
