Diagnostic Procedure
| 
 Step  | 
 Inspection  | 
 Action  | 
|
|---|---|---|---|
| 
 1 
 | 
 VERIFY FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) DTCs AGAIN 
•  Clear the DTC for the front body control module (FBCM) using the M-MDS.
 
•  Operate the light switch in OFF position. 
•  Retrieve the front body control module (FBCM) DTCs using the M-MDS.
 
•  Is the same DTC displayed? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Go to the next step. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Go to Step 7.

 2 
 | 
 INSPECT HEADLIGHT HI RELAY 
•  Switch the ignition to off. 
•  Disconnect the negative battery cable.
 
•  Remove the headlight HI relay. 
(See RELAY LOCATION.) 
•  Inspect the headlight HI relay. 
(See RELAY INSPECTION.) 
•  Is the headlight HI relay normal? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Go to the next step. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Replace the headlight HI relay, then go to Step 6. 
(See RELAY LOCATION.)

| 
 3 
 | 
 INSPECT FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) CONNECTOR 
•  Disconnect the front body control module (FBCM) connector. 
•  Inspect the connector engagement and connection condition and inspect the terminals for damage, deformation, corrosion, or disconnection. 
•  Is the connector normal? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Go to the next step. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6. 
 | 
||
| 
 4 
 | 
 INSPECT FOR SHORT TO GROUND IN HEADLIGHT HI RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT 
•  Verify that the headlight HI relay is removed. 
•  Verify that the front body control module (FBCM) connector is disconnected. 
•  Inspect for continuity between front body control module (FBCM) terminal 2X (wiring harness-side) and body ground. 
•  Is there continuity? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between headlight HI relay terminal E and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 2X. 
If there is a common connector: 
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for a short to ground. 
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. 
If there is no common connector: 
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has a short to ground. 
Go to Step 6. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Go to the next step. 
 | 
||
| 
 5 
 | 
 INSPECT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT IN HEADLIGHT HI RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT 
•  Verify that the headlight HI relay is removed. 
•  Verify that the front body control module (FBCM) connector is disconnected. 
•  Inspect for continuity between headlight HI relay terminal E (wiring harness-side) and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 2X (wiring harness-side). 
•  Is there continuity? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Go to the next step. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Refer to the wiring diagram and verify whether or not there is a common connector between headlight HI relay terminal E and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 2X. 
If there is a common connector: 
•  Determine the malfunctioning part by inspecting the common connector and the terminal for corrosion, damage, or pin disconnection, and the common wiring harness for an open circuit. 
•  Repair or replace the malfunctioning part. 
If there is no common connector: 
•  Repair or replace the wiring harness which has an open circuit. 
Go to the next step.

 | 
 VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED 
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors. 
•  Reconnect the negative battery cable.
 
•  Clear the DTC for the front body control module (FBCM) using the M-MDS.
 
•  Operate the light switch in OFF position. 
•  Retrieve the front body control module (FBCM) DTCs using the M-MDS.
 
•  Is the same DTC displayed? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Repeat the inspection from Step 1. 
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the front body control module (FBCM).
 
Go to the next step. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 Go to the next step.

| 
 7 
 | 
 VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED 
•  Are any other DTCs displayed? 
 | 
 Yes 
 | 
 Repair or replace the malfunctioning part according to the applicable DTC troubleshooting. 
 | 
| 
 No 
 | 
 DTC troubleshooting completed.
