DTC Descriptor
DTC B3135 00
- All Door Lock Circuit




Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) energizes the lock relay coil through a high side drive control circuit. When the BCM receives a lock message voltage is supplied to the door lock relay control circuit energizing the lock relay coil.


Conditions for Running the DTC

* Battery voltage is between 9-16 volts.
* The BCM has attempted to energize the lock relay.



Conditions for Setting the DTC

The door lock relay control circuit is shorted to ground.


Action Taken When the DTC Sets

Circuit/System Testing

1. Disconnect the I/P fuse block and connect a test lamp from battery voltage to the door lock relay control circuit terminal A2 in connector X3.
2. Verify that the test lamp does not illuminate.

If the test lamp illuminates test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal replace the BCM.

3. If the circuits test normal replace the I/P fuse block.
