DTC Descriptor
DTC B2555 00: Pass Compartment Lamp Control Circuit
Diagnostic Fault Information
Perform the
Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle
prior
to using this diagnostic procedure.
Circuit/System Description
The courtesy lamp fuse supplies battery voltage to the body control module (BCM).
The BCM applies battery voltage to the courtesy lamps through the courtesy lamp supply
voltage circuit. The courtesy lamps are triggered by the door switch, a door lock/unlock
command a momentary switch located next to the centre interior light. The lamps are
controlled by the BCM. When any door is opened, the door switch contacts close sending
the BCM a door-open input, or if the BCM receives a door lock or unlock input, the
BCM will activate the courtesy lamp supply voltage circuit, providing battery voltage
to the interior lights.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The BCM detects an open or short to voltage in the courtesy light control circuit.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
When DTC B2555 is present, the courtesy lamps will only operate manually from
the momentary switch.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
• | The conditions for setting the DTC are no longer present. |
• | The history DTC clears after 40 fault-free ignition cycles. |
• | The DTC can be cleared using a scan tool. |

Circuit/System Verification
Ensure all the doors are closed, lock and unlock the doors. The courtesy lights
should illuminate and deactivate as the doors are unlocked and locked.
Circuit/System Testing
- Disconnect the courtesy lamp harness connector at the courtesy lamp.
- Connect a test lamp between the courtesy lamp control circuit and a known
ground at the courtesy harness connector.
⇒ | Activate and deactivate the momentary switch the test lamp should illuminate
and deactivate as the switch is operated. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate and deactivate, with all doors closed,
open and close the drivers door. The test lamp should illuminate and deactivate as
the door is opened and closed. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate and deactivate on either circuit, locate
and repair an open/high resistance or short to voltage in the control circuit. |
- If circuits test OK, replace the BCM.
