Diagnostic Procedure

DTC B1C84:14 [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE

Step	Inspection		Action
1	VERIFY FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) DTCs AGAIN Clear the DTC for the front body control module (FBCM) using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Retrieve the front body control module (FBCM) DTCs using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Is the same DTC displayed?	Yes	Go to the next step.
1		No	Go to Step 7.
2	INSPECT REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY Switch the ignition off. Disconnect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Remove the rear window defogger relay. (See RELAY LOCATION .) Inspect the rear window defogger relay. (See RELAY INSPECTION .) Is the rear window defogger relay normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
2		No	Replace the rear window defogger relay, then go to Step 6. (See RELAY LOCATION .)
3	INSPECT FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) CONNECTOR CONDITION Disconnect the front body control module (FBCM) connector. Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection. Is the connector normal?	Yes	Go to the next step.
3		No	Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
4	INSPECT REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND Verify that the rear window defogger relay is removed. Verify that the front body control module (FBCM) connector is disconnected. Inspect for continuity between front body control module (FBCM) terminal 1P (wiring harness-side) and body ground. Is there continuity?	Yes	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between rear window defogger relay terminal E and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 1P. If there is a common connector: Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground. Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground. Go to Step 6.
4		No	Go to the next step.
5	INSPECT REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Verify that the rear window defogger relay is removed. Verify that the front body control module (FBCM) connector is disconnected. Inspect for continuity between rear window defogger relay terminal E (wiring harness-side) and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 1P (wiring harness-side). Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
5		No	Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between rear window defogger relay terminal E and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 1P. If there is a common connector: Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit. Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. If there is no common connector: Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit. Go to the next step.
6	VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED Always reconnect all disconnected connectors. Connect the negative battery terminal. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY TERMINAL DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION .) Clear the DTC for the front body control module (FBCM) using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Retrieve the front body control module (FBCM) DTCs using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Is the same DTC displayed?	Yes	Repeat the inspection from Step 1. If the malfunction recurs, replace the front body control module (FBCM). (See FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .) Go to the next step.
6		No	Go to the next step.
7	VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED Are any other DTCs displayed?	Yes	Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting. (See DTC TABLE [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .)
7		No	DTC troubleshooting completed.
