Circuit Description

The battery positive voltage (B+) is supplied to the driver door module (DDM) at the DDM connector C1 terminal 11, CKT 1540 (ORN). The DDM monitors this voltage to determine if the voltage is within a valid operating range.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The battery positive voltage (B+) exceeds 15.5 volts for more than 1 second.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

    • DTC B1982 is stored in the driver door module (DDM) memory.
    • The DDM will not respond to any manual or memory inputs when the voltage is greater than 16 volts.
    • No driver warning message is displayed for this DTC.
    • The DDM switch failure and the position sensor failure DTCs will not set while DTC B1982 is current.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

    • The B+ voltage falls below 15 volts for approximately 1.2 seconds.
    • The history DTC clears after 50 ignition cycles.
    • Use a scan tool in order to clear a history DTC.

Diagnostic Aids

This DTC may set when the vehicle is placed on a battery charger set to FAST CHARGE for a long period of time.
