Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet SSR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

2: Listen for an audible click when the front fog lamp relay operates. Command both the ON and OFF states. Repeat the commands as necessary.
3: Tests for voltage at the coil side of the front fog lamp relay.
4: Verifies that the BCM is providing ground to the front fog lamp relay.
5: Tests if ground is constantly being applied to the front fog lamp relay.
6: Tests if there is opposing voltage present or an open in the front fog lamp relay control circuit.
12: After replacement of the BCM you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.

1	Did you perform the Lighting Systems Diagnostic System Check?	Go to Step 2	Go to Diagnostic System Check - Lighting Systems
2	Install a scan tool. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. With a scan tool, command the front fog lamp relay ON and OFF. Does the front fog lamp relay turn ON and OFF with each command?	Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems	Go to Step 3
3	Turn OFF the ignition. Disconnect the front fog lamp relay. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF. Probe the battery positive voltage circuit of the front fog lamp relay with a test lamp that is connected to a good ground. Does the test lamp illuminate?	Go to Step 4	Go to Step 10
4	Connect a test lamp between the control circuit of the front fog lamp relay and the battery positive voltage circuit of the front fog lamp relay. With a scan tool, command the front fog lamp relay ON and OFF. Does the test lamp turn ON and OFF with each command?	Go to Step 8	Go to Step 5
5	Does the test lamp remain illuminated with each command?	Go to Step 7	Go to Step 6
6	Test the control circuit of the front fog lamp relay for a short to voltage or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 9
7	Test the control circuit of the front fog lamp relay for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 9
8	Inspect for poor connections at the front fog lamp relay. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 11
9	Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the body control module (BCM). Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition?	Go to Step 13	Go to Step 12
10	Repair the battery positive voltage circuit of the front fog lamp relay. Refer to Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you complete the repair?	Go to Step 13	-
11	Replace the front fog lamp relay. Refer to Relay Replacement (Within an Electrical Center) or Relay Replacement (Attached to Wire Harness) in Wiring Systems. Did you complete the replacement?	Go to Step 13	-
12	IMPORTANT: Perform the setup procedure for the BCM. Replace the BCM. Refer to Body Control Module Replacement in Body Control System.Did you complete the replacement?	Go to Step 13	-
13	Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC as specified in the supporting text. Does the DTC reset?	Go to Step 2	System OK
