DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tool:
MB991223: Harness Set
STEP 1. Check fog lamp switch connector C-128 for loose,
corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back
in the connector.
Q: Is fog lamp switch connector C-128 in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 2.
NO : Repair or replace the damaged component(s). Refer
to GROUP 00E, Harness Connector Inspection
P.00E-2. Repair the fog lamp switch. If the fog lamp
switch operates normally, a correct signal is sent from
the fog lamp switch.
STEP 2. Check the fog lamp switch.
Remove the fog lamp switch. Refer to GROUP 54A, Fog lamp
P.54A-168. Then check continuity between the switch termi-
nals.
Q: Is the fog lamp switch in good condition?
YES : Go to Step 3.
NO : Repair the fog lamp switch. If the fog lamp switch
operates normally, a correct signal is sent from the
fog lamp switch.
