Rear Fog Lamp Open

Causes
- Burned-out (open) rear fog lamp bulb
- Poor or disconnected connector at the lamp
- Broken or damaged wiring (open circuit) between BCM and lamp
- Corroded ground or power contact at lamp socket
- Blown fuse or faulty relay in the fog lamp power supply
- Faulty BCM or module output driver
Symptoms
- Rear fog lamp does not illuminate when switched ON
- Rear fog lamp indicator on dash may not light or may show a fault
- Intermittent operation of rear fog lamp
- Related warning light or DTC present in BCM
What to check
- Visually inspect rear fog lamp bulb for a broken filament
- Check lamp socket and connector for corrosion, bent pins, or damage
- Verify fuse and relay for the rear fog lamp circuit
- Check for voltage at the lamp socket with fog lamp switch ON
- Measure continuity between BCM connector and lamp socket
- Inspect wiring harness for chafing, breaks, or pinched areas
Signal parameters
- Expected supply voltage at lamp socket with lamp ON: approx. 11–14 V
- Expected bulb filament resistance (typical 21W lamp): about 5–10 Ω (infinite if filament open)
- Expected current draw with lamp ON: ~1–2 A (depending on lamp wattage)
- Open-circuit condition: infinite resistance / no continuity between power and ground at lamp socket
- BCM output: switching command present (logic signal) even if lamp circuit open
Diagnostic algorithm
- Confirm symptom and note whether code is current or historical. Attempt to operate rear fog lamp and observe behavior.
- Visually inspect rear fog lamp bulb and socket. Replace bulb with a known-good bulb if filament appears broken.
- Inspect connector and wiring at the lamp for corrosion, loose terminals, or damage. Repair or clean as required.
- Check the appropriate fuse and relay for the fog lamp circuit. Replace any blown fuses and test relay operation.
- With fog lamp switch ON, measure voltage at the lamp socket power terminal relative to chassis ground. If ~12 V is present, suspect bulb/socket/ground issue.
- Measure continuity/resistance from the lamp power terminal back to the BCM output pin with connectors disconnected. An open reading indicates wiring/connector fault.
- Check ground continuity from lamp ground terminal to chassis. Repair any poor ground connections.
- If wiring and lamp are good but BCM output does not show the expected switching voltage or control signal, inspect BCM connector pins for damage and consider BCM diagnostics (reprogram/replace only after confirming wiring and load).
- Clear DTCs, retest the system multiple cycles to confirm repair and that the code does not return.
Likely causes
- Failed rear fog lamp bulb (open filament)
- Loose/disconnected lamp connector or corroded pins
- Open or chafed wire in harness to rear fog lamp
- Corroded/poor ground at lamp assembly
- Fuse blown for fog lamp circuit
Fault status
Status
BCM detected open circuit in rear fog lamp circuit (lamp not receiving expected electrical connection).
Repair difficulty: Medium
Diagnostic time: 0.5-1.5 hours
