Front Fog Light Circuit: Procedure

  1. INSPECT FUSE (FR FOG) 
    1. Remove the FR FOG fuse from the instrument panel junction block.
    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      FR FOG fuse Always Below 1 Ω

    NG → REPLACE FUSE 

    OK: Go to next step 

  2. INSPECT FRONT FOG LIGHT RELAY 
    1. Remove the front fog light relay.

      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      2 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V
      5 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V

    NG → REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR 

    OK: Go to next step 

  4. INSPECT HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH ASSEMBLY 
    1. Remove the headlight dimmer switch assembly.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard Resistance

      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      3 (LFG) - 4 (BFG) Fog light switch off 10 kΩ or higher
      3 (LFG) - 4 (BFG) Fog light switch on Below 1 Ω
    3. Reinstall the headlight dimmer switch assembly.

    NG → See step   9 

    OK: Go to next step 

  5. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (FRONT FOG LIGHT RELAY - HEADLIGHT DIMMER SWITCH ASSEMBLY) 
    1. Disconnect the E12 headlight dimmer switch assembly connector.
