Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) controls the door lock, passenger door unlock and driver door unlock relays. Voltage is applied to the appropriate relay through the door lock/unlock control circuit when the BCM senses a door lock/unlock switch activation or a keyless entry lock or unlock command.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The system voltage is 9-18 volts.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B3125 00

The BCM detects a fault in the driver door unlock control circuit while commanding the DRV UNLCK relay.

B3130 00

The BCM detects a fault in the door unlock control circuit while commanding the PASS UNLCK relay.

B3135 00

The BCM detects a fault in the door lock control circuit while commanding the DR/LCKS relay.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The BCM stores the DTC to memory.
* The power door locks will not operate.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* This DTC will change from current to history when the fault is no longer present.
* A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present.

Circuit/System Verification

Command the driver door and passenger door lock actuators to LOCK and UNLOCK with the scan tool, the doors should LOCK and UNLOCK.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the body fuse block.
2. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 5 and ground.
3. Ignition ON, command the lock rear doors 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 ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
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 BCM.

4. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 18 and B+.
5. Command the driver door unlock 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 ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or and open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

6. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 11 and B+.
7. Command the unlock rear doors 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 ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to voltage or and open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.

8. If all circuits test normal, replace the body fuse block.
