Circuit Description

Circuit 43 is the accessory input to the body control module (BCM). The input can be either in the on or off position from the ignition switch. If the BCM senses that the accessory input is inactive, DTC B1382 is set.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The engine is running for at least 30 seconds.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM does not detect the accessory input after 30 seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTC B1382 is stored in the BCM memory.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC
    • DTC B1382 clears when the code setting condition is no longer present.
    • All BCM history codes will be cleared after 100 ignition cycles (from OFF to ON) with no current codes active during the 100 ignition cycles.

Diagnostic Aids

If the DTC is a history DTC, the problem may be intermittent. Perform the tests shown while wiggling the wiring and connectors. This can often cause the malfunction to appear.

Test Description

The numbers listed below refer to the numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. This step determines if CKT 43 is shorted to ground.

    2.

  2. This step determines if the BCM is internally shorted.

    3.

  3. This step determines if voltage is supplied from the battery to the BCM fuse.
