Circuit Description

The inadvertent power circuit acts as both of the following components:

    • An input
    • An output

When one of several switches provides a ground to CKT 1732, terminal D1 acts as an input. The ground causes the SBM to wake up.

Terminal D1 provides the following functions:

    • An output
    • Voltage to the courtesy lamps through CKT 1732

A DTC is set when the SBM detects a short to ground In CKT 1732.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

    • The SBM detects a short to ground in CKT 1732.
    • The SBM only tests for this condition when the SBM attempts to activate the courtesy lamps.
    • The condition is present for more than 0.1 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • DTC B0807 stores in the SBMs memory.
    • No driver warning message is displayed.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • Under all fault conditions, the ignition must cycle before the DTC will change from current to history.
    • The SBM no longer detects a short to ground.
    • A history DTC will clear after 50 consecutive ignition cycles if the condition is no longer present.
