BCM DTC Chart
DTC | Description | Action |
---|---|---|
B1115:11 | High Mounted Stop Lamp Control: Circuit Short to Ground | GO to Pinpoint Test B |
B1115:15 | High Mounted Stop Lamp Control: Circuit Short to Battery or Open |
|
B1444:15 | Left Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Battery or Open |
|
B1448:11 | Right Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Ground | GO to Pinpoint Test B |
B1448:15 | Right Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Battery or Open |
|
C0040:12 | Brake Pedal Switch "A": Circuit Short To Battery | GO to Pinpoint Test C |
U1000:00 | Solid State Driver Protection Actived -Driver Disabled: No Sub Type Information |
The module has temporarily disabled an
output because an excessive current draw exists (such as a short to
ground). The BCM
cannot enable the output until the cause of the short is corrected.
ADDRESS all other Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) first. After the cause
of the concern is corrected, CLEAR the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
REPEAT the self-test. For additional information on BCM Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection, REFER to: Module Controlled Functions - System Operation and Component Description (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Description and Operation). |
U3000:49 | Control Module: Internal Electronic Failure |
The module has permanently disabled an
output because an excessive current draw fault (such as a short to
ground) has exceeded the limits that the BCM can withstand. The cause of the excessive current draw MUST be corrected before a new BCM is installed. ADDRESS all other Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) first. After the cause of the concern is corrected, Click here to access Guided Routine (BCM). Internet Explorer version 11 or greater is required to perform this Pinpoint Test. For additional information on BCM Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection, REFER to: Module Controlled Functions - System Operation and Component Description (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Description and Operation). |

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Conditions |
---|---|---|
B1115:11 | High Mounted Stop Lamp Control: Circuit Short To Ground | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects a short to ground from the high mounted stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
B1115:15 | High Mounted Stop Lamp Control: Circuit Short To Battery Or Open | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects an open or short to voltage from the high mounted stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
B1444:11 | Left Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Ground | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects a short to ground from the left rear stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
B1444:15 | Left Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Battery or Open | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects an open or short to voltage from the left rear stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
B1448:11 | Right Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Ground | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects a short to ground from the right rear stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
B1448:15 | Right Rear Stop/Position Lamp Output: Circuit Short To Battery or Open | A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects an open or short to voltage from the right rear stoplamp voltage supply circuit. |
U1000:00 | Solid State Driver Protection Actived -Driver Disabled: No Sub Type Information |
This DTC sets when the BCM
has temporarily shut down the output driver. The module has temporarily
disabled an output because an excessive current draw exists (such as a
short to ground). The BCM
cannot enable the output until the cause of the short is corrected, the
Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) have been cleared and a successful
self-test is run. For additional information on BCM Field Effect Transistor (FET) protection, REFER to: Module Controlled Functions - System Operation and Component Description (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Description and Operation). |
U3000:49 | Control Module: Internal Electronic Failure |
This DTC sets when the BCM
has permanently shut down the output driver. The module has permanently
disabled an output because an excessive current draw fault (such as a
short to ground) has exceeded the limits that the BCM can withstand. CORRECT the cause of the excessive current draw before installing a new BCM.
