FOG LAMP

INSPECTION PROCEDURE M-1: The front fog lamps do not illuminate normally.
| CAUTION Whenever the ECU is replaced, ensure that the input and output signal circuits are normal.
| OPERATION The ETACS-ECU operates this function in accordance with the input signals below. Tail lamp switch Headlamp switch Fog lamp switch If the fog lamps do not illuminate normally, these input signal circuit(s) or the ETACS-ECU may be defective.
| POSSIBLE CAUSES Malfunction of the column switch Malfunction of the fog lamp switch Malfunction of the front-ECU Malfunction of the ETACS-ECU Damaged harness wires and connectors
| DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
| Step 1. Check that the tail lamps and headlamps operate. Check that the tail lamps and headlamps illuminate normally. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 2. NO: Repair the tail lamp(s) and headlamp(s). Refer to trouble symptom chart .
| Step 2. ECU check on the SWS monitor Check that the power supply and earth lines to the column switch (column-ECU), the ETACS-ECU and the front-ECU and the SWS communication lines are normal. Ignition switch: OFF ECUS TO BE CHECKED COLUMN ECU ETACS ECU FRONT ECU OK: "OK" are displayed for all the items Q: Are the check result normal? "OK" are displayed for all the items: Go to Step 3. "NG" is displayed on the "COLUMN ECU" menu.: Refer to Inspection Procedure A-2 "Communication with the column switch (column-ECU) is not possible" . "NG" is displayed on the "ETACS ECU" menu.: Refer to Inspection Procedure A-3 "Communication with the ETACS-ECU is not possible" . "NG" is displayed on the "FRONT ECU" menu.: Refer to Inspection Procedure A-4 "Communication with the front-ECU is not possible" .
| Step 3. Function diagnosis by using the SWS monitor Check the SWS communication signal, which are related to the fog lamps. <Selected item> LIGHTING - F.FOG LAMP Ignition switch: ON Lighting switch: "TAIL" or "HEAD"
Item No. | Item name | Normal conditions
--- | --- | ---
Item 00 | HEADLAMP SW | ON when the lighting switch is at HEAD
Item 01 | TAIL LAMP SW | ON when the lighting switch is at TAIL or HEAD
Item 30 | IG SW(IG1) | ON
OK: Normal conditions are displayed for all the items. Q: Are the check result normal? Normal conditions are displayed for all the items.: Go to Step 4. Normal condition is not displayed for item No.00 or No.01: Refer to inspection procedure P-5 "The column switch (lighting and turn-signal lamp switch) signal is not received ." Normal condition is not displayed for item No.30.: Refer to inspection procedure P-2 "The ignition switch (IG1) signal is not received" .
| Step 4. Check the ETACS SW data by using the SWS monitor. Check the ETACS-ECU signals which are related to the fog lamps. Fog lamp switch: ON
Item No. | Item name | Normal conditions
--- | --- | ---
Item 10 | F.FOG LAMP SW | ON
OK: Normal condition is displayed. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 5. NO: Refer to inspection procedure P-18 "The front fog lamp switch signal is not received" .
| Step 5. Connector check: A-05X front fog lamp relay connector Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 6. NO: Repair the defective connector.
| Step 6. Check the front fog lamp relay. Refer to GROUP 54A - Fog lamp . Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 7. NO: Replace the front fog lamp relay.
| Step 7. Measure the voltage at the A-05X front fog lamp relay connector. Remove the fog lamp relay, and measure at the relay box side. Check the voltage between the fog lamp relay connector and body earth. Voltage between A-05X front fog lamp relay connector terminal No.1 and body earth Voltage between A-05X front fog lamp relay connector terminal No.2 and body earth OK: Battery positive voltage Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 9. NO: Go to Step 8.
| Step 8. Check the wiring harness between A-05X front fog lamp relay connector (terminal Nos. 1 and 2) and the battery. Check the power supply line for open circuit. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ). NO: Repair the wiring harness.
| Step 9. Connector check: A-11X front-ECU connector Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 10. NO: Repair the defective connector.
| Step 10. Check the wiring harness between A-05X fog lamp relay connector terminal No.3 and A-11X front-ECU connector terminal No.11. Check the output lines for open circuit. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: Go to Step 11. NO: Repair the wiring harness.
| Step 11. Retest the system. Check that the front fog lamps illuminate normally. Q: Is the check result normal? YES: The trouble can be an intermittent malfunction (Refer to GROUP 00 - How to Cope with Intermittent Malfunction ). NO: Replace the ETACS-ECU.
