This circuit/condition will cause B+ fuse to the ignition switch to open and will cause a no start condition. No voltage to the Ignition switch. This circuit is a pass through circuit in the BCM, will cause the B+ fuse to the ignition switch to open, and a no start condition. The PCM will not receive accessory voltage from the BCM. The run/crank relay will not energize resulting in multiple systems inoperative.

Circuit/System Description

The vehicle power mode master (PMM) is the body control module (BCM). The ignition switch is a low current switch with multiple discrete ignition switch signals to the PMM for determination of the power mode. The PMM receives the ignition switch signals, and additionally a reference voltage signal from the BCM, through the ignition switch, and back to the BCM. There are redundancies within the PMM system that can allow operation of certain subsystems when there are faults in the ignition switch circuits. Other information such as serial data input from other modules and DTCs is also used to determine what power mode signals and information is transmitted by the PMM. The BCM logic uses all this information to identify the operator's desired power mode and activate specific discrete signals, and serial data messages for the operation of different subsystems as necessary. Other modules which have switched voltage inputs may operate in a default mode if the PMM serial data message does not match what the individual module can detect from its own connections.

The PMM will activate relays and other direct outputs of the PMM as needed according to the calculated power mode. Some relays controlled by the BCM are switched ignition voltage outputs that are pass through circuits within the BCM directly from the ignition switch. If these circuits short to ground, the B+ circuit fuse to the ignition switch will open.

Conditions for Running the DTC

B+ is between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B1372

The BCM detects that the Run/Crank circuit is open or shorted to ground.

B1373

The BCM detects that the Run/Crank signal is shorted to voltage.

B1382

The BCM detects that the accessory circuit is open or shorted to ground.

B1383

The BCM detects that the accessory circuit is shorted to voltage.

Actions Taken When the DTC Sets

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

A current DTC clears when the malfunction is no longer present.

Diagnostic Aids

The power modes and controls are determined using BCM logic. Comparing the Body Control Module Power Mode data display parameters listed in Circuit/System Verification to the scan tool values of the vehicle will determine if there is a power mode fault.

Circuit/System Verification

With a scan tool, access BCM, Power Mode data display list and compare all parameters listed with the corresponding ignition key position. The PMM Power Mode Parameters table below illustrates the correct state of these input parameters in correspondence to the ignition switch position. The circuits which the individual parameters are related to are in parentheses.

OFF	Inactive	Inactive	Active
ACC	Active	Inactive	Inactive
ON	Active	Active	Active
START	Inactive	Active	Active

Circuit/System Testing

Note: You must perform the Circuit/System Verification before proceeding with Circuit/System Testing.

1. Connect a test lamp between each fuse test terminal of the ignition switch B+ circuit fuse and ground. The test lamp should illuminate.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition switch circuits listed below for a short to ground. If all circuits test OK, replace the BCM.

•	B+ terminal 2

•	Ignition terminal 1

•	Ignition terminal 3

•	Ignition terminal 4

2. Disconnect the harness connector at the ignition switch.
3. Connect a test lamp between the B+ circuit terminal 2 and ground. The test lamp should illuminate.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the B+ circuit for an open/high resistance.

Note: The ignition switch component test must be performed before proceeding with this test to verify the integrity of the switch.

4. Perform the ignition switch component test. Verify the switch passes the test.

⇒	If the ignition switch does not test normal, replace the ignition switch.

5. Disconnect the X2 harness connector at the BCM, test for less than 1.0 V between the circuit terminals of the BCM listed below and ground:

•	Ignition terminal B7, X2

•	Ignition terminal B8, X2

•	Ignition terminal A14, X2

⇒	If greater than specified, test the circuit for a short to voltage.

6. Test for less than 1.0 Ω between the BCM and the ignition switch on the circuits listed below:

•	Ignition terminal B7, X2 and 1

•	Ignition terminal B8, X2 and 3

•	Ignition terminal A14, X2 and 4

⇒	If greater than specified, test the circuit for open/high resistance.

7. If all circuits test normal, replace the BCM.

Component Testing

Ignition Switch

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the ignition switch.
2. Verify the resistance between the terminals listed below match for each ignition switch position.

⇒	If not the specified value, replace the ignition switch.
