DTC Descriptor
DTC B2965: Key In Ignition Circuit OpenDiagnostic Fault Information
Circuit | Short to Ground | Open/High Resistance | Short to Voltage | Signal Performance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Key In Ignition B+ | 1 | 1 | -- | -- |
Key In Ignition Signal | 1 | B2965 | B2965 | -- |
1. Chime Malfunction. | ||||
Circuit Description
The body control module (BCM) monitors the key in ignition switch signal circuit in order to activate an audible warning.The ignition switch closes when the key is in the ignition and the signal circuit is low. The ignition switch opens when the key is not in the ignition and the signal circuit is high.
Conditions for Running the DTC
The ignition is ON.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
| • | The ignition 1 voltage circuit is active high signal and the key in ignition signal circuit is high. |
| • | The conditions above must be present for more than 0.3 second. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM stores DTC B2965 in memory.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The DTC becomes history when the fault is no longer present. |
| • | A history DTC will clear after 100 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition for the malfunction is no longer present. |

Circuit/System Verification
Verify that the Key In Ignition Status parameter is Key In when the key is in the ignition and Key Out when the key is out of the ignition.
Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ignition switch.
- Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the B+ circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- Verify the scan tool Key In Ignition Status parameter is Key Out.
- Install a 3A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 5 and the B+ circuit terminal 3. Verify the scan tool Key in Ignition Status parameter is Key In.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the ignition switch.
| ⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the power mode circuit fuse is open, test the signal circuit terminal 3 for a short to ground. |
| ⇒ | If not the specified value, test the signal circuit terminal 5 for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
| ⇒ | If not the specified value, test the signal circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
