Circuit/System Description
The rear passenger door locks are controlled by the body control module (BCM). When a door lock switch is operated to the lock position, the BCM applies voltage to the rear door lock actuator lock control circuit which energizes the lock relay. With the lock relay coil energized, the switch contacts close allowing battery voltage to flow from the REAR DOOR LCK fuse through the relay switch contacts to the left and right door lock/unlock motors. A ground path is provided by the unlock relay controlled output circuit through the unlock relay switch contacts to ground. The process to unlock the rear doors reverses the flow of current. The BCM applies ground to the rear door lock actuator unlock control circuit which energizes the unlock relay coil. With the unlock relay coil energized, the switch contacts close allowing battery voltage to flow from the REAR DOOR LCK fuse through the relay switch contacts to the left and right door lock/unlock motors. Ground is provided through the lock relay controlled output circuit through the lock relay switch contacts to ground. For more detailed information concerning power door lock operation refer to Power Door Locks Description and Operation .
Conditions for Running the DTC
Battery voltage must be between 9-16 volts.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
DTC B3135 00 will set when the BCM detects a short to ground in the rear door lock motor lock control circuit.
Actions Taken When the DTC Sets
The BCM will disable all lock requests.
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists. |
| • | You issue a scan tool CLEAR DTCs command. |
| • | A history DTC will clear once 50 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the lock relay.
- Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 3 and ground.
- Command the rear door locks to LOCK and UNLOCK with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.
- If the circuits test normal, test or replace the door lock relay.
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
| ⇒ | If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the BCM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
