Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
---|---|---|---|---|
Rear Fog Lamp Switch Signal | B3588 02 | -- | -- | -- |
Low Reference | -- | -- | -- | -- |
The auxiliary body control module (XBCM) receives a momentary ground signal from the rear fog lamp switch when the switch is activated. The rear fog lamps will remain illuminated until the switch is activated again or when the ignition key is cycled.
System voltage to the XBCM must be 9-16 volts.
The rear fog lamp switch signal circuit is active for longer than 10 minutes.
The rear fog lamps will be disabled.
• | 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. |

Use the scan tool output control for the Auxiliary Body Control Module to activate the rear fog lamps. The rear fog lamps should illuminate.
⇒ | If the parameter displays Active, test the rear fog lamp switch signal circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the XBCM. |
⇒ | If the parameter displays Active, replace the rear fog lamp switch. |
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
