Circuit Description
The body control module (BCM) ground 2 circuit provides ground for the high current devices controlled by the BCM.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:
DTC B1354 Device Ground 2 (chassis ground 2) Circuit Open
Conditions for Running the DTC
The BCM monitors the ground 2 at all times.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM detects that the ground 2 circuit is not at ground potential for 300 milliseconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM stores DTC B1354 in memory.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC B1354 will clear if the BCM no longer detects the fault. |
| • | A history DTC B1354 will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present. |
Step | Action | Yes | No |
