Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) monitors the voltage input of the hood ajar switch signal circuit.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The BCM continuously monitors for this DTC
Conditions for Setting the DTC
B3006 01
The BCM detects that the Hood Ajar Switch signal circuit is shorted to battery.
B3006 02
The BCM detects that the Hood Ajar Switch signal circuit is shorted to ground.
B3006 04
The BCM detects that the Hood Ajar Switch signal circuit is open.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
Prevent an engine start.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC will clear when the conditions for setting are no longer present. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 40 malfunction free ignition cycles. |

Circuit/System Verification
Ignition ON, observe the scan tool BCM Hood Ajar Switch parameter. With the hood open, the Hood Ajar Switch parameter should read open. With the hood closed, the Hood Ajar Switch parameter should read closed.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B55 Hood Ajar Switch.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal C and ground.
- Ignition ON, test for greater 11 V between the signal circuit terminal A and ground.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the B55 Hood Ajar Switch.
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
| ⇒ | If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K9 Body Control Module (BCM). |
Component Testing
Static Test
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the B55 Hood Ajar Switch.
- With the B55 Hood Ajar Switch open position, test for infinite resistance between the ground terminal C and the signal terminal A.
- With the B55 Hood Ajar Switch closed position, test for less than 5 Ω between the ground terminal C and the signal terminal A
| ⇒ | If not infinite, replace the B55 Hood Ajar Switch. |
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, replace the B55 Hood Ajar Switch. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
