Diagnostic Chart (Part 1 Of 2):

Diagnostic Chart (Part 2 Of 2):

Refer to Door Lock/Indicator Schematics.

Circuit Description
The body control module (BCM) controls the left front door lock motor. The body control module applies power to the driver's door unlock feed circuit which energizes the door lock motor to unlock the door lock.

Conditions for Running the DTC
The BCM must not be commanding the door lock motor to unlock the door lock.

Conditions for Setting the DTC
^ The BCM detects a short to battery in the unlock feed circuit to the driver's door while not trying to energize the door lock motor to unlock the door lock.
^ The condition above must be present for more than 0.3 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM stores DTC B3128 in memory.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
^ A short to battery in the driver's door unlock feed circuit is no longer detected by the BCM.
^ A history DTC B3128 will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present.
^ A scan tool may be used to clear the DTC.

Diagnostic Aids
^ If the DTC B3128 is a history DTC, the fault may be intermittent. Refer to Intermittents and Poor Connections.
^ The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction to occur:
- An intermittent short to battery in the driver's door unlock feed circuit
- The left front door lock motor is shorted to battery internally
- The BCM is shorted to battery internally
