CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The Body Control Module (BCM) monitors CKT 192 in order to determine when the fog lamp relay is to be energized. When the BCM senses CKT 192 low momentarily by pressing the fog lamp switch, the BCM energizes the fog lamp relay by grounding CKT 1317.

CONDITIONS FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ The battery voltage must be between 9.0-16.0 volts.
^ Ignition switch in the RUN position.
^ Fog lamp switch ON.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
When CKT 192 is shorted to ground for approximately 3 minutes.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
The fog lamps will not operate.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE MIL/DTC
^ This DTC will clear on current status after the condition for setting the fault is corrected.
^ A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles without a fault present.
^ History and current DTC(s) can be cleared using a scan tool.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
^ Test the fog lamp switch for sticking in the ON position.
^ Perform a visual inspection for loose or poor connections at all related components
^ Refer to Testing for Intermittent and Poor Connections in Diagrams

TEST DESCRIPTION
The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.
2. OFF is the normal state of the switch before activation.
4. OFF is the normal state of the switch before activation.
5. This step tests for a short to ground on the signal circuit.
8. After replacement of the BCM you must calibrate the new module for proper operation.
