DTC B2452 Theater Dimming 1 Open or Shorted to GND:

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The SBM controls the courtesy lamps for theater dimming. The outputs will fade out in order to turn the lamps to the OFF position. If there is an open or a short to ground in CKT 156, a fault condition is present and a DTC will set.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The SBM detects a short to ground or an open in CKT 156.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ Stores a DTC B2452 in the SBM memory
^ No driver warning message will be displayed for this DTC.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
^ A short to ground is no longer detected by the SBM in CKT 156.
^ An open is no longer detected by the SBM in CKT 156.
^ A history DTC clears after 50 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the fault is no longer present.
^ Using the on-board diagnostic (clearing DTCs) feature.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
The following conditions may cause an intermittent malfunction to occur:
^ An intermittent short to ground in CKT 156
