Doors, Hood and Trunk Diagnosis
DTC B1420
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The driver door module (DDM) and passenger door module (PDM) check for proper system voltage of 9.0-16.0 volts at least once every 20 milliseconds. When the DDM or PDM detects that system voltage is either below 9.0 volts or above 16.0 volts, a DTC is set and DTC updates are disabled.
