Diagnostic Fault Information



Circuit/System Description



When the rear window defogger switch is activated, the radio/HVAC control panel sends a serial data message to the HVAC control module



requesting the rear defogger be activated. The HVAC control module responds by energizing the rear defog relay by applying voltage to the rear



defog relay control circuit. When the rear defog relay coil is energized, the switch contacts of the rear defog relay close allowing battery voltage to



flow from the REAR DEFOG fuse through the closed switch contacts and out the relay switched output to the rear window defogger grid.



Conditions for Running the DTC



Battery voltage is between 9-16 volts.



Conditions for Setting the DTC



B0283 02



The HVAC control module detects a short to ground in the rear defog relay control circuit for 1 second or greater.



B0283 05



The HVAC control module detects a short to voltage or an open/high resistance in the rear defog relay control circuit or an open/high resistance it



the rear defog relay ground circuit for greater than 1 second.
