DTC Descriptors
DTC B3140 00
- Driver Door Unlock Switch Circuit
DTC B3150 00
- Left Front Door Lock Switch Circuit
Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) supplies a 12 V signal to each of the door lock and door unlock signal circuits. When the door lock switches are in the open position, the voltage level in the signal circuit will be near 12 V. When any door lock switch is pressed to the lock or unlock position, the voltage level in the appropriate signal circuit will drop to 0 V and the BCM will detect the voltage drop and command the door latches to perform the requested lock or unlock command.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The system voltage is 9-16 V.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B3140 00
The BCM detects short to ground in the unlock signal circuit for greater than 60 seconds.
B3150 00
The BCM detects a short to ground in the lock signal circuit for greater than 60 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
B3140 00
The BCM will ignore the unlock signal and the doors will not unlock when using the central or driver door unlock switches.
B3150 00
The BCM will ignore the lock signal and the doors will not lock when using the central or driver door lock switches.
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 be a history DTC.
* A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.
