The BCM detects a short to voltage or an open/high resistance in the rear fog lamp switch signal circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The rear fog lamps will not operate when the park lamps are ON and the rear fog lamp switch is active.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the headlamp switch.
2. Verify that 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. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Rear Fog Lamp Switch parameter is 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 ground. 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, test or replace the headlamp switch.
