LAND ROVER B — Body

Lamp circuit from the corner right

Completed 100%
Page language: EN

Causes

  • Blown or faulty bulb / LED module
  • Open or short in wiring harness to right corner lamp
  • Poor or corroded connector/ground
  • Faulty lamp control module / Body Control Module (BCM)
  • Water ingress or mechanical damage to lamp assembly
  • Blown fuse or faulty relay in lamp power feed

Symptoms

  • Right corner lamp (or associated side marker/cornering lamp) not illuminating
  • Lamp flickers or works intermittently
  • Relevant warning on dash (lamp out) or stored DTC
  • Visible moisture or damage in lamp housing
  • Other lamps on same circuit may be affected

What to check

  • Scan vehicle and confirm B1C99 present and freeze frame data
  • Inspect right corner lamp lens and housing for damage or moisture
  • Visually check bulb or LED module condition and seating
  • Inspect wiring and connector for corrosion, damage, or loose pins
  • Check related fuses and relays
  • Swap lamp with opposite side (if identical) to check lamp vs wiring

Signal parameters

  • Supply voltage at lamp connector: approximately battery voltage (~11–14 V) when ON
  • Ground continuity: near 0 Ω to chassis ground
  • Bulb filament resistance (typical for incandescent): check service data — commonly 2–30 Ω depending on lamp
  • LED modules: may be driven by PWM or constant current — verify expected PWM frequency or current per service docs
  • No-voltage (open) or short-to-ground/short-to-VB should be detected with digital multimeter

Diagnostic algorithm

  1. Verify the code: Clear codes and see if B1C99 returns. Note conditions when code sets (ignition state, lights on, turn signal activation, cornering function).
  2. Visual inspection: Check right corner lamp assembly, lens, mounting, and look for moisture, corrosion, broken sockets or loose bulbs/LED modules.
  3. Lamp swap test: If lamp type is interchangeable, swap the right lamp with the left. If code follows the lamp, replace the lamp unit.
  4. Connector and wiring: Disconnect connector, inspect pins for corrosion/push-back, check for continuity between connector and BCM (or harness splice). Repair any damaged pins or wiring.
  5. Power/ground tests: With lights commanded ON, measure voltage at the lamp power pin. Verify a good ground at the ground pin. No voltage indicates open power feed; no ground indicates grounding issue.
  6. Wiggle test: With a helper activating lamp function, gently manipulate harness and connectors to reproduce intermittent faults.
  7. Check fuses/relays: Confirm appropriate fuses and relays for the lamp circuit are intact and operating.
  8. Module outputs: Using a scan tool, command the lamp ON and monitor BCM output state. If BCM output is commanded but voltage is absent at lamp connector, trace power feed and fuses. If BCM output not commanding, investigate BCM power/ground and network communications.
  9. Repair and retest: Repair wiring, replace lamp or connectors as required, clear codes and confirm repair under the same operating conditions that set the fault.
  10. If wiring and lamp are good but fault persists, consult OEM repair information for BCM driver tests and consider module replacement only after exhaustive proof of failure.

Likely causes

  • Failed lamp bulb or integrated LED unit
  • Disconnected or corroded multi-pin connector at lamp
  • Damaged wiring from chafe, pinch, or rodent
  • Intermittent ground at lamp housing
  • Faulty output transistor or driver in BCM
  • Aftermarket bulb or incorrect lamp fitted
