Pinpoint Test

  1. RECHECK THE BCM DTCs 
    1. Ignition ON.
    2. Using a scan tool, perform BCM self-test.
    3. Clear the DTCs  . Repeat the BCM self-test.

    Is DTC U3003:16 still present? 

    • Yes: GO to .
    • No: The system is operating normally at this time. The DTC may have been set due to a previous low battery voltage condition.
  2. CHECK FOR CHARGING SYSTEM DTCs  IN THE PCM
    1. Using a scan tool, perform PCM KOEO self-test.
    2. Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs  from the PCM.

    Is DTC P0562, P0620, P0622, P0625, P0626 or P065B set in the PCM? 

  3. CHECK THE BATTERY CONDITION AND STATE OF CHARGE
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Check the battery condition and verify the battery is fully charged. REFER to DIAGNOSTIC ROUTINE A : Battery Condition Test.

    Is the battery OK and fully charged? 

  4. CHECK THE BCM VOLTAGE PID
    1. Ignition ON.
    2. Measure and record the voltage at the battery.
    3. Using a scan tool, view BCM voltage PID (V_BATT).

    Is the voltage within 0.2 volt of the recorded battery voltage? 

    • Yes: GO to  7.
    • No: GO to .
  5. CHECK THE BCM VOLTAGE SUPPLY
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Disconnect: BCM C2280G.
    3. Ignition ON.
    4. Measure:
    BCM Ground
    G08037836
    G08037837
    C2280G Ground
    Pin Circuit Measurement / Action Pin Circuit
    1 SBF02 (YE/RD)
    G08037838
    - Ground

    Is the voltage within 0.2 volt of the recorded battery voltage? 

    • Yes: GO to .
    • No: REPAIR the circuit for high resistance. CLEAR the DTC.
  6. CHECK THE BCM GROUND CIRCUIT FOR HIGH RESISTANCE
    1. Ignition OFF.
    2. Disconnect: BCM C2280D.
    3. Measure:
    BCM Ground
    G08037839
    G08037840
    C2280D Ground
    Pin Circuit Measurement / Action Pin Circuit
    25 GD233 (BK)
    G08037841
    - Ground

    Is the resistance less than 3 ohms? 

    • Yes: GO to .
    • No: REPAIR the circuit for high resistance. CLEAR the DTC.
  7. CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM OPERATION
    1. Disconnect the BCM connectors.
    2. Repair:
      • corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
      • damaged pins - install new terminals/pins
      • pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
    3. Reconnect the BCM connectors and make sure they seat and latch correctly.
    4. Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.

    Is the concern still present?
