3		No	Repair or replace the connector, then go to Step 6.
4	INSPECT HEADLIGHT HI RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND 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 (vehicle wiring harness side) and body ground. Is there continuity?	Yes	Repair or replace the wiring harness, then go to Step 6.
4		No	Go to the next step.
5	INSPECT HEADLIGHT HI RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT Verify that the headlight HI relay is removed. Verify that the front body control module (FBCM) connector is disconnected. Inspect the wiring harness for continuity between headlight HI relay terminal E (vehicle wiring harness side) and front body control module (FBCM) terminal 2X (vehicle wiring harness side). Is there continuity?	Yes	Go to the next step.
5		No	Repair or replace the wiring harness and go to the next step.
6	VERIFY THAT REPAIRS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED Reconnect all the disconnected connectors. Reconnect the disconnected negative battery cable. (See NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE DISCONNECTION/CONNECTION [SKYACTIV-G 2.0, SKYACTIV-G 2.5] .) Clear front body control module (FBCM) DTCs using the M-MDS. (See CLEARING DTC [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Switch the ignition ON (engine off or on). Operate the light switch in OFF position. Perform the front body control module (FBCM) DTC inspection using the M-MDS. (See DTC INSPECTION [FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM)] .) Is DTC B109A:14 displayed?	Yes	Repeat the inspection from Step 1. If the malfunction recurs, replace the front body control module (FBCM), then go to the next step. (See FRONT BODY CONTROL MODULE (FBCM) REMOVAL/INSTALLATION .)
6		No	Go to the next step.
