The vehicle power mode master (PMM) is the body control module (BCM). The ignition switch is a low current switch with multiple discrete circuits to the BCM. The BCM logic uses the ignition switch positions to identify the operator's desired power mode and activate specific discrete signals, and serial data messages for the operation of different subsystems as necessary. Other modules which have switched voltage inputs may operate in a default mode if the PMM serial data message does not match what the individual module can detect from its own connections.
The PMM will activate relays and other direct outputs of the PMM as needed according to the calculated power mode. Some relays controlled by the BCM are switched ignition voltage outputs that are pass through circuits within the BCM directly from the ignition switch. If these circuits short to ground, the B+ circuit fuse to the ignition switch will open.
Ignition switch is in the RUN or CRANK positions.
Ignition switch is in the RUN or ACCESSORY positions.
Ignition switch is in the RUN position.
Ignition switch is in the CRANK position.
Ignition circuit is shorted to voltage.
• | Ignition circuit is open. |
• | Ignition, accessory, or off/run/crank circuit shorted to ground. |
• | B+ circuit of the ignition switch is open or shorted to ground. |
• | Ignition relay control circuit open, including relay coil and ground. |
Accessory circuit is shorted to voltage.
• | Accessory circuit is open. |
• | Ignition, accessory, or off/run/crank circuit shorted to ground. |
• | B+ circuit of the ignition switch is open or shorted to ground. |
BCM detects an open or short to voltage on the off/run/crank signal circuit when both ignition ACCESSORY/RUN and ignition RUN/CRANK parameters are active.
BCM detects an open on the B+ circuit to the ignition switch while the engine is running.
Off/run/crank signal circuit is shorted to voltage.
Off/run/crank signal circuit is open.
• | The BCM operates in a fail-safe power mode dependent on the last valid power mode detected and the state of the engine run flag data on the serial data communications circuits. |
• | The other modules on the vehicle operate in a fail-safe power mode dependent on the last valid power mode transmitted by the BCM and the state of the engine run flag on the serial data communications circuits. |
• | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
• | A history DTC will clear once 50 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

⇒ | 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 B+ circuit fuse is open, test the ignition circuits listed below for a short to ground. |
Note: To help isolate a short to ground, it may be necessary to disconnect modules that are connected to the following circuits: |
• | terminal 1 |
• | terminal 3 |
• | terminal 4 |
• | terminal 6 |
• | BCM terminal 19, X4 |
• | BCM terminal 21, X4 |
• | terminal 2 |
• | terminal 14 |
• | terminal 21 |
⇒ | If the test lamp illuminates, test the ignition circuits for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ignition switch. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ignition switch. |
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ignition switch. |
⇒ | If not the specified value, replace the ignition switch. |
