DTC Descriptor

DTC B2455 00
- Cellular Phone Microphone Circuit

Circuit/System Description

The vehicle communication interface module (VCIM) detects that the cellular microphone is connected through the cellular microphone signal circuit and the drain wire.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The ignition must be in the RUN or ACC position.
* The system voltage is at least 9.5 volts and no more than 15.5 volts.
* All the above conditions are present for greater than 10 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

* The VCIM detects an open in the drain wire circuit or a short to voltage in the cellular microphone signal circuit.
* The above conditions are present for greater than 10 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The VCIM will not receive any signal from the microphone.
* Calls can be placed but the caller cannot be heard.
* The OnStar(R) status LED turns red.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The VCIM detects the microphone connected for 5 consecutive 100 millisecond cycles.
* A history DTC clears after 50 malfunction-free ignition cycles.
* The VCIM receives the clear DTC command from the scan tool.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the inside rear view mirror harness connector.
2. Ignition ON, test for less than 9.5 volts at the cellular signal circuit terminal 10.

• If greater than the specified value, repair short to voltage.

3. Ignition OFF, test for greater than 1 ohm between the cellular signal circuit terminal 10 and ground.

• If less than specified value, repair short to ground.

4. Disconnect C2 VCIM harness connector.
5. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the inside rear view mirror harness connector terminal 2 and VCIM harness connector terminal 10.

• If greater than the specified value, repair open/high resistance.

6. Test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the inside rear view mirror harness connector terminal 10 and VCIM harness connector terminal 9.

• If greater than the specified value, repair open/high resistance.

7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the inside rear view mirror.

Repair Instructions
