INSPECTION PROCEDURE J-1: Fog Light: Fog lamps do not illuminate when the fog lamp switch is
turned on.
NOTE: This troubleshooting procedure requires the
use of Diagnostic Tool MB991958 and SWS monitor
kit MB991813. For details on how to use the SWS
monitor, refer to "How to connect SWS monitor
P.54B-13."

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The ETACS-ECU sends a fog lamp illumination
request signal ("LAMP ON" signal) to the
front-ECU when the fog lamp switch is turned on
while the headlamps are illuminating at low
beam.
Then the front-ECU switches on its relay to illumi-
nate the fog lamps.
.
TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION (COMMENT)
If the headlamps illuminate at low beam, the fog
lamp relay, the fog lamp switch, the front-ECU or the
ETACS-ECU may be defective.
.
TROUBLESHOOTING HINTS
Refer to circuit diagrams GROUP-90
Refer to configuration diagrams GROUP-80
Trouble in input signal system
The wiring harness or connectors may have
loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or termi-
nals pushed back in the connector
The fog lamp relay may be defective
The front-ECU may be defective
The ETACS-ECU may be defective
