Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) supplies and monitors a 12 V signal to the door lock/window switch through the door lock switch lock and unlock signal circuits. The door lock/window switch also receives a constant ground source. If a door lock switch is placed in the lock position or unlock position, the reference voltage is taken directly to ground and the BCM will detect the voltage drop on the signal circuit and will command the doors to lock or unlock.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The system voltage is 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B3140 00

The BCM detects a short to ground in the unlock switch signal circuit for greater than 60 seconds.

B3150 00

The BCM detects a short to ground in the lock switch signal circuit for greater than 60 seconds

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The BCM will ignore the command and the power door lock switch will malfunction.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

* When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will become a history DTC.

* A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Detective model, Igniton ON, observe the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw. and Driver Door Unlock Sw. parameters while using the S101 door lock/window switch. The parameter should change between Inactive and Active.

If the value does not change, refer to Door Lock Switch Malfunction, Detective Model.

2. Police model, Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw. and Driver Door Unlock Sw. parameters while using the S101 door lock/window switch and by using the S79P window switch-passenger. The parameter should change between Inactive and Active while using each switch.

If the value does not change, refer to Door Lock Switch Malfunction, Police Model.

Circuit/System Testing

Door Lock Switch Malfunction, Detective Model

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the S101 door lock/window switch.

2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw. parameter is Inactive.

If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 15 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

3. Verify the scan tool Driver Door Unlock Sw. parameter is Inactive.

If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 5 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

4. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S101 door lock/window switch.

Door Lock Switch Malfunction, Police Model

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the S101 door lock/window switch.

2. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the S79P window switch-passenger.

3. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw. parameter is Inactive.

If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 15 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

4. Verify the scan tool Driver Door Unlock Sw. parameter is Inactive.

If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 5 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.

5. Ignition OFF, connect the X2 harness connector at the S101 door lock/window switch.

6. Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw. and Driver Door Unlock Sw. parameters while using the S101 door lock/window switch. The parameter should change between Inactive and Active.

If the values do not change, test or replace the S101 door lock/window switch.

7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the S79P window switch-passenger.

Component Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the appropriate S101 door lock/window switch or the S79P window switch-passenger.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals 5 and 15 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the open position.

If less than the specified value, replace the switch.

3. Test for less than 2 ohms between the signal terminal 15 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the lock position.

If greater than the specified range, replace the switch.

4. Test for less than 2 ohms between the signal terminal 5 and the ground terminal 4 with the switch in the unlock position.

If greater than the specified range, replace the switch
