Pinpoint Test 25: The Fog Lamp Indicator Is Never/Always On
PINPOINT TEST 25: THE FOG LAMP INDICATOR IS NEVER/ALWAYS ON
Normal Operation
NOTE:The smart junction box (SJB) is also known as the generic electronic module (GEM).The fog lamp indicator informs the driver that the fog lamps are on. The instrument cluster receives the fog lamp status from the SJB/GEM over the high speed controller area network (HS-CAN) communication bus. When the headlamp switch is in the parking lamps ON position and the fog lamp switch is in the ON position, the SJB/GEM enables the fog lamp relay. When the fog lamp relay is enabled, the SJB/GEM sends a message to the instrument cluster to turn on the fog lamp indicator.
DTC U0140 (Lost Communication With The Body Control Module [GEM]) - is a continuous DTC that sets in the instrument cluster if the fog lamp status message is missing for more than 5 seconds and the instrument cluster turns off the fog lamp indicator.
This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:
- SJB/GEM
- Instrument cluster
