Circuit Description
The powertrain control module (PCM) monitors its ignition 1 voltage circuit. The PCM compares the ignition 1 voltage with the body control module (BCM) Class 2 serial data power mode message. If the ignition 1 voltage signal is detected high while in Off Awake or RAP power modes the PCM will set DTC P2535. The DTC P2535 is a type C DTC. Refer to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Type Definitions in Engine Controls - 3.4L for more information about DTC types.
DTC Descriptor
This diagnostic procedure supports the following DTC:

Conditions for Running the DTC
| • | The vehicle is in PARK or NEUTRAL |
| • | The ignition switch is OFF |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The ignition 1 voltage signal is higher than normal for more than 7 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The control module stores this information in the Failure Records.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present.
