Causes

  • Open or shorted wiring to the auxiliary switch
  • Poor or corroded connector or pin(s) at the switch or control module
  • Failed auxiliary switch (mechanical or internal electrical fault)
  • Faulty body/control module input circuit
  • Water ingress, dirt or physical damage to switch or harness
  • Intermittent connection due to vibration or chafing

Symptoms

  • Associated auxiliary function does not operate (depends on fitted auxiliary switch function)
  • Intermittent or no response from the auxiliary switch
  • Warning light or message may be present in vehicle display
  • Stored B102F fault present in module memory

What to check

  • Read and record DTC(s) and freeze frame data with a compatible diagnostic tool
  • Visually inspect switch, surrounding area and wiring for damage, corrosion, loose connectors or signs of water ingress
  • Operate the auxiliary switch while observing data stream or while monitoring the circuit with a multimeter/oscilloscope
  • Back-probe the switch connector and measure reference supply, signal voltage and continuity to the module
  • Check ground integrity for related circuits at the module and chassis

Signal parameters

  • Reference voltage to switch: approximately battery voltage (~11–14 V) when switched to supply (vehicle off/on conditions may vary)
  • Signal voltage when switch closed: near 0 V (ground) or near battery voltage depending on circuit design (check factory wiring)
  • Resistance across switch terminals: near 0 Ω when closed, infinite/very high when open (measure with switch disconnected)
  • Intermittent changes in signal when wiggling harness indicate poor connection

Diagnostic algorithm

  1. Connect diagnostic scan tool, read and record stored codes and freeze frame/fault occurrence data
  2. Attempt to operate the auxiliary switch and watch live data or the related channel to confirm fault reproduction
  3. Visually inspect switch and harness for damage, corrosion, signs of water ingress or mechanical wear
  4. With ignition off, disconnect the switch connector and inspect pins for corrosion, bending, or pushed-out pins; clean and repair as needed
  5. Measure continuity between the switch connector and the control module connector; check for short to ground or battery on the signal wire
  6. Back-probe the connector with ignition on and operate switch; verify reference supply and signal voltage levels match expected values (consult vehicle wiring if available)
  7. If wiring and connectors check good, bench-test or replace the auxiliary switch and re-test circuit
  8. If fault persists after verifying and repairing switch and wiring, consider diagnostic of body/control module input (check for module power/ground, update software if applicable)
  9. Clear codes and road-test to confirm repair; monitor for return of B102F before declaring repair complete

Likely causes

  • Damaged wiring harness (chafed, pinched or broken) between the switch and module
  • Corroded connector terminals at the auxiliary switch or module
  • Failed auxiliary switch contacts or internal electronics
  • Short to ground or short to battery on the switch feed or signal circuit

Fault status

⚠️ Status
Auxiliary switch circuit fault reported by body/control module — signal out of expected range (open, short, intermittent or invalid voltage).
🟡 Repair difficulty: Medium
⏱️ Diagnostic time: 0.5 - 2.0 hours
