Inspection and Checking

NOTE:
NOTE:Before reading out the vehicle-specific data, remake all the electrical connections which were separated in the vehicle, so that communication between the module and WDS is ensured.
NOTE:
NOTE:If the generic electronic module (GEM) is changed, the new one must be configured. For this purpose, the vehicle-specific data is read out of the module to be replaced using WDS and is transferred to the new module. REFER to:
Module Configuration (418-01 Module Configuration, Diagnosis and Testing),
Generic Electronic Module (GEM) - Vehicles Built Up To: 10/2005 (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Diagnosis and Testing),
Generic Electronic Module (GEM) - Vehicles Built From: 10/2005 (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Diagnosis and Testing).
  1. Verify the customer concern.
  1. Visually inspect for obvious signs of electrical damage.

REFER to: Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) (417-04 Daytime Running Lamps (DRL), Diagnosis and Testing).
C7: DETERMINE THE FAULT CONDITION
1
Disconnect Automatic headlamps relay from socket C418.

2
Measure the voltage between the headlamp switch, connector C338, pin 15, circuit 15-LE32 (GN/WH), wiring harness side and ground.

Is battery voltage measured?
Yes
LOCATE and RECTIFY the short to battery voltage in the circuits connected to the automatic headlamps relay, socket C418, pin 5 using the Wiring Diagrams. CHECK the operation of the system.
No
C8: RULE OUT THE AUTOMATIC HEADLAMPS RELAY AS A SOURCE OF THE FAULT

1
Measure the voltage between the automatic headlamps relay, socket C418, pin 1, circuit 15-LE36 (GN/WH), socket side and ground.

Is battery voltage measured?
Yes
LOCATE and RECTIFY the short to battery voltage in the circuits connected to soldered connection S1 using the Wiring Diagrams. CHECK the operation of the system. If the concern persists:
REFER to: Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) (417-04 Daytime Running Lamps (DRL), Diagnosis and Testing).
No
RENEW the automatic headlamps relay. CHECK the operation of the system.
