Safety Warning
DIY auto repair can cause serious injury, fire, or vehicle damage. These guides are for informational purposes only. Always follow OEM torque specs, wear PPE, and consult a certified mechanic if you are unsure. You are solely responsible for your safety.
Circuit/System Description
The fog lamp fuse in the fuse block - underhood supplies battery positive voltage to the switch side of the fog lamp relay at all time. When the fog lamp switch is pressed it supplies a momentary voltage signal on the front fog lamp switch signal circuit to the body control module (BCM). The BCM then supplies ground to the coil side of the fog lamp relay energizing the relay. The fog lamp relay is soldered to the underhood fuseblock circuit board. The front fog lamps are connected to ground at G101. The park lamps or headlamps must be ON for the fog lamps to operate.
