DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition BCM B10F1:94 Key In Switch: Unexpected Operation An on-demand DTC that sets if the BCM detects ignition START, RUN/START or RUN/ACC inputs without the key-in-ignition input. Possible Sources
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Interior lighting concern
- Key-in-ignition warning switch (part of the ignition switch)
- BCM
- IPC
- AW1 CHECK THE SAFETY BELT WARNING CHIME OPERATION
- Ignition OFF.
- Unbuckle the driver safety belt.
- Ignition ON.
- Monitor the safety belt warning chime when the ignition switch is transitioned from OFF to RUN for 6 seconds.
Does the safety belt warning chime operate for approximately 6 seconds?
Yes GO to AW2 No GO to Pinpoint Test A - AW2 CHECK THE INTERIOR LAMPS OPERATION
- Open and close the driver door.
- Observe the interior lamps.
Do the interior lamps operate correctly from the driver door?
Yes GO to AW3 No REFER to: Interior Lighting . - AW3 RETRIEVE THE RECORDED DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTCS) FROM THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) SELF-TEST
- Using a diagnostic scan tool, perform the BCM self-test.
Are any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) present?
Yes For DTC B10F1:94, GO to AW4 For all other Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs), REFER to: Body Control Module (BCM) . No GO to AW6 - AW4 CHECK THE KEY-IN-IGNITION INPUT CIRCUIT AT THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE)
- Ignition OFF.
- Insert the key into the ignition cylinder.
- Disconnect BCM C2280D.
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes GO to AW6 No GO to AW5 - AW5 CHECK THE KEY-IN-IGNITION INPUT CIRCUIT BETWEEN THE BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) AND THE IGNITION SWITCH FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect Ignition Switch C250.
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms?
Yes INSTALL a new ignition switch. REFER to: Ignition Switch . No REPAIR the circuit. - AW6 CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE) OPERATION
- Disconnect and inspect all BCM connectors.
- Repair:
- corrosion (install new connector or terminals - clean module pins)
- damaged or bent pins - install new terminals/pins
- pushed-out pins - install new pins as necessary
- Reconnect the BCM connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
- Operate the system and verify the concern is still present
Is the concern still present?
Yes CHECK OASIS for any applicable Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs). If a TSB exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW TSB instructions. If no Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) address this concern, INSTALL a new BCM. REFER to: Body Control Module (BCM) . No The system is operating correctly at this time. The concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root cause of any connector or pin issues.
