The LH Front Power Door Lock Switch (LFPWS) Assembly provides a LH Front seat occupant with the ability to initiate an unlock all doors signal.
Whenever the Power Door Lock Switch is moved to the UNLOCK position, a ground is provided on the LH Front Power Window Switch Connector, terminal 6 input, through CKT 781 (ORN/BLK).
The Power Door Lock Switch ground is provided from the LFDM via CKT 351 (BLK/WHT). If CKT 351 (BLK/WHT) is open the LH Front power window will also exhibit problems since the Power Door Lock Switch and the Power Window Switch share a common ground.
Power Window Switch power is furnished through CKT 640 (ORN). If CKT 640 (ORN) is open or shorted to ground, the LH Front power window will also exhibit problems.
When this Power Door Lock Switch is placed in the UNLOCK position, the unlock signal is sensed by the LFPWS Assembly, sends a message to the LFDM over the SBI. The LFDM sends a message to the Rear Interface Module (RIM), requesting a command to UNLOCK all doors since the RIM is the door Lock master. Any problem with the SBI or LFDM will affect door lock, window functions, and mirror functions.
If the UNLOCK signal to the LH Front Power Window Switch remains grounded for a period of 30 seconds, this DTC will be set current. The UNLOCK signal from CKT 781 (ORN/BLK) is examined by the LH Front Power Window Switch no less than once every 300 milliseconds.
The diagnostic for this DTC will not run if either the Battery Voltage High (DTC B1982) or Battery Voltage Low (DTC B1983) are set current.
This DTC is dynamic, and as such, is current only while the problem is present. This switch actuation will be ignored by the door module until a switch change of state is detected.
• | This DTC will be set from current to history when the UNLOCK input cycles off or the power mode changes from OFF to RUN. |
• | The history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles. |
• | The scan tool or the vehicle "On Board Diagnostic System" can be used to clear the history DTC. |
• | A history DTC is evidence of a intermittent problem, clear the DTC and cycle the ignition switch from OFF to RUN. Then perform the Diagnostic System Check. |
• | If DTC B2221 is current, cycle the ignition switch from OFF to RUN. If this DTC is still current, perform the following diagnostic. |
Numbers below refer to the Diagnostic Table Step Number(s).
This step tests the LH front power door switch for an internal short.
This step tests CKT 781 for a short to ground.
