STEP 5. Check the battery power supply circuit to the fog
lamp relay. Measure the voltage at fog lamp relay
connector A-05X.

CAUTION

The top and bottom of the fog lamp relay are difficult to
identify. Prior to inspection, confirm the triangle mark on
the relay box.
(1) Disconnect fog lamp relay connector A-05X and measure

the voltage available at the relay box side of the connector.

(2) Measure the voltage between terminal 1 and ground, and

also between terminal 2 and ground.

• The voltage should measure approximately 12 volts

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Is the measured voltage approximately 12 volts (battery

positive voltage)?
YES : Go to Step 7.
NO : Go to Step 6.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between fog lamp relay
connector A-05X (terminals 1 and 2) and the battery.
Q: Is the wiring harness between fog lamp relay connector

A-05X (terminals 1 and 2) and the battery in good
condition?
YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the fog lamps illuminate normally.

to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection

P.00E-2

. Verify that the fog lamps illuminate normally.

STEP 8. Check the wiring harness between fog lamp relay
connector A-05X (terminal 3) and front-ECU connector
A-11X (terminal 11).
Q: Is the wiring harness between fog lamp relay connector

A-05X (terminal 3) and front-ECU connector A-11X
(terminal 11) in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 9.
NO : The wiring harness may be damaged or the

connector(s) may have loose, corroded or damaged
terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Repair the wiring harness as necessary. Verify that
the fog lamps illuminate normally.

STEP 9. Replace the ECU.
(1) Replace the front-ECU.
(2) The fog lamps should illuminate normally.

Q: Do the fog lamps illuminate normally?

YES : No action is necessary and testing is complete.
NO : Replace the ETACS-ECU. Verify that the fog lamps

illuminate normally.
