Circuit Description
This code (both current and history) indicates the body control module (BCM) has sensed a short to the battery condition on the instrument cluster serial peripheral interface (SPI) data out line to the BCM.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
All of the following conditions must be met:
| • | Ignition 0 is active. |
| • | The serial data line from the BCM to the instrument panel cluster (IPC) is shorted to voltage for 5 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | Stores DTC U2005 in the BCM memory |
| • | The instrument cluster illuminates the following indicators: |
| - | THEFT SYSTEM |
| - | ABS |
| - | SERVICE VEHICLE SOON |
| - | The PRNDL indicator is blank. |
| - | The temperature gauges read zero. |
| • | Disables the instrument cluster data output |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The BCM goes to sleep and reinitializes with the malfunction cleared. |
| • | All the BCM history codes will be cleared after 100 ignition cycles (from OFF to ON) with no current codes active during the 100 ignition cycles. |
| • | Use the scan tool. |
Diagnostic Aids
| • | Diagnose DTC U2006 and DTC U2007 before diagnosing DTC U2005. |
| • | With the ignition switch in the ON position, test for voltage transitions on the SPI data line. |
| • | When the diagnostics direct you to take electrical measurements at the wiring harness junction blocks, refer to Power and Grounding Component Views in Wiring Systems. |
| • | If the DTC is a history DTC, the problem may be intermittent. Perform the above tests while wiggling the wiring and connectors. This may often cause the malfunction to appear. |
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the numbers on the diagnostic table.
-
This step determines if there is a short to the battery in CKT 1321 between the instrument cluster and the body control module (BCM).
-
This step determines if either the instrument cluster or the BCM is malfunctioning.
Step | Action | Value(s) | Yes | No | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
