DTC Descriptor
DTC B1390: Device Voltage Reference Input CircuitDiagnostic Fault Information
Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Battery Positive Voltage (BCM X1-51) | B1390 | B1390 | -- | B1390 |
Battery Positive Voltage (BCM X1-52) | B1390 | B1390 | -- | B1390 |
Ground (BCM X1-19) | -- | B1390 | -- | B1390 |
Ground (BCM X1-17) | -- | B1390 | -- | B1390 |
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) has an internal precision battery voltage sensor connected to dedicated battery positive voltage from X1 terminal 51 and dedicated ground terminal 19. The BCM then compares the sensors voltage to the battery positive voltage from X1 terminal 52. DTC B 1390 will set if these voltages are different by greater than 2 volts.
Conditions for Running the DTC
This DTC will run only if the BCM has power and ground. This DTC will execute regardless of the source voltage.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
This code shall be set when the 2 battery positive voltages differ by 2 volts or greater for more than 10 seconds.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
All writes to the electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM) will be suspended. All loss of communication and low/high voltage DTC codes are suspended.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present. |
| • | A history DTC clears when the module ignition cycle counter reaches the reset threshold, without a repeat of the malfunction. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the X-1 harness connector at the BCM.
- Verify that there is less than a 2 volt difference between the battery positive voltage circuit terminal 51 and the ground circuit terminal 19, and between the battery positive voltage circuit terminal 52 and the ground circuit terminal 17.
- If the circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
| ⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the voltage circuits for a short to ground or open/high resistance, and the ground circuits for open/high resistance. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
