FRONT FOG LAMP RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The front fog lamp relay is located in the Junction
Block (JB) on the driver side outboard end of the
instrument panel in the passenger compartment of
the vehicle. The front fog lamp relay is a conven-
tional International Standards Organization (ISO)
micro relay (Fig. 11). Relays conforming to the ISO
specifications have common physical dimensions, cur-
rent capacities, terminal patterns, and terminal func-
tions. The relay is contained within a small,
rectangular, molded plastic housing and is connected
to all of the required inputs and outputs by five inte-
gral male spade-type terminals that extend from the
bottom of the relay base.
The front fog lamp relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The front fog lamp relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Body
Control Module (BCM) to control a high current out-
put to the front fog lamps. The movable common feed
contact point is held against the fixed normally
closed contact point by spring pressure. When the
relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact

OPERATION
The controller board and logic circuitry of the
headlamp leveling motor will energize the motor and
extend or retract the motor pushrod through the
integral screw-drive transmission based upon the
voltage signal input received from the resistor multi-
plexed headlamp leveling switch. The ball formation
on the end of the headlamp leveling motor pushrod is
snapped into a socket formation on the back of the
movable reflector within the headlamp unit housing.
The headlamp leveling motors and switch have a
path to ground at all times. The headlamp leveling
components operate on battery current received
through the fused park lamp relay output circuit so
that the system will only operate when the exterior
lighting is turned On.
Because of active electronic elements within the
headlamp leveling motor, it cannot be tested with
conventional automotive electrical test equipment. If
the headlamp leveling motor is believed to be faulty,
replace the motor with a known good unit to confirm
system operation.
REMOVAL
The headlamp leveling motors are integral to the
headlamp units on vehicles manufactured for certain
markets where headlamp leveling is required.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the headlamp bulb from the headlamp
unit housing. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/LAMPS/

(3) Rotate the headlamp leveling motor on the
back of the headlamp unit housing counterclockwise
about 30 degrees (Fig. 32).
(4) Firmly grasp the motor with one hand while
stabilizing the headlamp unit housing with the other
hand.
(5) Firmly, steadily, and forcefully pull the head-
lamp leveling motor straight away from the back of
the headlamp unit housing to unsnap the ball forma-
tion on the end of the motor pushrod from the socket
on the headlamp unit reflector (Fig. 33).
(6) Remove the headlamp leveling motor and push-
rod from the back of the headlamp unit housing.
INSTALLATION
The headlamp leveling motors are integral to the
headlamp units on vehicles manufactured for certain

eling motor pushrod with the socket on the headlamp
unit reflector (Fig. 33).
(4) While continuing to pulling the reflector
toward the motor, firmly, steadily, and forcefully push

HEADLAMP LEVELING
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The headlamp leveling switch (Fig. 34) is used only
on vehicles manufactured for certain markets where
the headlamp leveling system is required. The head-
lamp leveling switch is mounted in the driver side
inboard trim bezel on the instrument panel, where it
is secured by molded latch features that are integral
to the switch housing. Only the switch bezel and
thumbwheel are visible on the outer surface of the
instrument panel trim bezel. The black plastic switch
thumbwheel is marked with white numbers ª0,º ª1,º
ª2,º and ª3,º each of which indicates one of the four
switch detent positions. Each higher number repre-sents a lower aiming position of the headlamp beam
relative to the road surface. The black, molded plas-
tic switch housing has an integral connector recepta-
cle on the back, a single latch feature on the top, and
two latch features (one on each side) on the bottom.
The switch is connected to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem through a dedicated take out and connector of
the instrument panel wire harness. Within the
switch housing is the leveling switch circuitry includ-
ing the switch contacts and a series resistor configu-
ration.
The headlamp leveling switch cannot be adjusted
or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the unit must
be replaced.
OPERATION
The headlamp leveling switch receives battery cur-
rent on a fused park lamp relay output circuit from a
fuse in the Junction Block (JB) whenever the park
lamp relay is energized (park lamps are turned On).
The switch receives a path to ground through a splice
block located in the instrument panel wire harness
with an eyelet terminal connector that is secured by
a nut to a ground stud on the driver side instrument
panel end bracket near the JB. The only output from
the switch is a voltage signal that it provides to the
headlamp leveling motors on a headlamp adjust sig-
nal circuit. Each switch position selects a different
tap on a series resistor within the switch to provide a
different voltage signal to the leveling motors. The
higher the switch position number, the higher the
output voltage level.
The headlamp leveling switch can be tested using
conventional diagnostic tools and methods.
