Component Parts and Harness Connector LocationEKS00B9B
System DescriptionEKS00B9C
Control of the fog lamps is dependent upon the position of the combination switch (lighting switch). The light-
ing switch must be in the 2ND position or AUTO position (LOW beam is ON) for front fog lamp operation.
When the lighting switch is placed in the fog lamp position, the BCM (body control module) receives input sig-
nal requesting the fog lamps to illuminate. When the headlamps are illuminated, this input signal is communi-
cated to the IPDM E/R (intelligent power distribution module engine room) across the CAN communication
lines. The CPU (central processing unit) of the IPDM E/R controls the front fog lamp relay coil. When acti-
vated, this relay directs power to the front fog lamps.

coil. This relay, when energized, directs power to the parking, license plate and tail lamps, which then illumi-
nate.
