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.

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, perform the Front Fog Lamps Relay Command test. The front fog lamps should be ON/OFF
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the appropriate harness connector at the front fog lamps listed below:
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the appropriate front fog lamp ground circuit harness connector terminal A and ground.
- Disconnect the KR46 Front Fog Lamp Relay.
- Ignition ON, test for less than 0.3 V between the signal circuit terminal 87 and ground.
- Ignition OFF, test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 87 and ground.
- Test for less than 5 Ω between the signal circuit terminal 87 and the appropriate front fog lamp connector terminal B.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the KR46 Front Fog Lamp Relay.

| ⇒ | If greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an short to voltage. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an short to ground. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. |
