CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
Circuit 341 is the ignition 3 input to the body control module (BCM) from the ignition switch. When the BCM senses that the ignition 3 input is open, DTC B1379 sets.

CONDITIONS FOR SETTING THE DTC
The ignition 3 input is inactive after the ignition 1 input has been active for 20 seconds.

CONDITION FOR RUNNING THE DTC
^ The ignition switch is on.
^ At least 20 seconds has elapsed since the ignition switch was cycled on.

ACTION TAKEN WHEN THE DTC SETS
^ The SERVICE VEHICLE SOON indicator illuminates.
^ The check gauges chime sounds.

CONDITIONS FOR CLEARING THE DTC
^ A current DTC B1379 will clear when the malfunction is no longer present and the ignition switch is cycled.
^ All BCM history codes will clear after 100 ignition cycles (from OFF to ON) with no current codes active during the 100 ignition cycles.

DIAGNOSTIC AIDS
If the DTC is a history DTC, the problem may be intermittent. Perform the tests shown while wiggling the wiring and connectors. This action may often cause the malfunction to appear.
