Diagnostic Fault Information
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) supplies and monitors a reference voltage to the door lock switch through the door lock switch lock/unlock signal circuit. The door lock switch also receives a constant ground source. If a door lock switch is placed in the lock position or unlock position, the reference voltage is taken directly to ground and the BCM detects the voltage drop on the signal circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The system voltage must be between 9-16 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B3140 00 or B3150 00
The BCM detects a fault in the driver door lock switch lock or unlock signal circuits.
B3145 00 or B3155 00
The BCM detects a fault in the passenger door lock switch lock or unlock signal circuits.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The driver or passenger door lock switch will malfunction.
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.

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, observe the scan tool Driver Door Lock Sw, Psgr Door Lock Sw, Driver Door Unlock Sw and Psgr Door Unlock Sw parameters while using the door lock switches. The parameter should change between Inactive and Active.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate door lock switch.
2. Ignition ON, verify the scan tool Door Lock Sw parameter is Inactive.
• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 1 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
3. Verify the scan tool Door Unlock Sw parameter is Inactive.
• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 2 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
4. Install a 3 amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 1 and ground. Verify the scan tool Door Lock Sw parameter is Active.
• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
5. Install a 3 amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 2 and ground. Verify the scan tool Door Unlock Sw parameter is Active.
• If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM.
6. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the door lock switch.
Component Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate door lock switch.
2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminals 2 and 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the at rest position.
• If less than the specified value, replace the door lock switch.
3. Test for less than 2 ohms between the signal terminal 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the lock position.
• If greater than the specified range, replace the door lock switch.
4. Test for less than 2 ohms between the signal terminal 2 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the unlock position.
• If greater than the specified range, replace the door lock switch.
