DTC Descriptor
DTC B2652 02
-
Passenger Compartment Dimming 3 Circuit Short to Ground
Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) uses the ambient light sensor to determine which brightness of the accent lighting is needed. The BCM applies a pulse width modulated (PWM) voltage through the accent light LED control circuit. Depending on the specified lighting requirements, the BCM has three different accent lighting settings:
* Daylight Conditions (70%)
* Night Conditions (40%)
* Welcome Light Illumination (100%)
Conditions for Running the DTC
* The ignition is ON.
* The headlamps or park lamps ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM detects a short to ground on the accent lighting control circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM does not attempt to illuminate the accent lighting.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
* The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
* A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Verification
When opening the driver door, the accent lighting should turn ON. When closing the driver door and locking the vehicle, the accent lighting should turn OFF after 5 seconds.
Circuit/System Testing
Note:
Each back lighted component may need to be disconnected to isolate a short to voltage or short to ground. Use the schematic to identify the following:
* Back lighted components the vehicle is equipped with.
* Component locations on the back lighting dimming control circuit
* Each component's control and ground circuit terminals
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at any component with inoperative backlighting.
2. Ignition OFF, scan tool disconnected, interior lamps OFF, doors CLOSED, test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit and ground.
• If greater than the specified value, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit and ground.
4. Command the Incandescent Dimming ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
• If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
• If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 BCM.
5. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the component with the inoperative backlighting.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification Verification Tests after completing the diagnostic procedure.
* Refer to the appropriate replacement procedure for the component causing the condition.
