DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
DTC Description Fault Trigger Condition BCM B1472:12 Ignition Key Removal Inhibit: Circuit Short To Battery Sets when the BCM detects a short to voltage from the key removal inhibit solenoid control circuit. BCM B1472:14 Ignition Key Removal Inhibit: Circuit Short To Ground Or Open Sets when the BCM detects an open from the key removal inhibit solenoid control circuit. Possible Sources
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
- Ignition switch
- Selector lever assembly
- BCM
- NOTE: Use the correct probe adapter(s) when making measurements. Failure to use the correct probe adapter(s) may damage the connector.
- NOTE: The following Pinpoint Test uses a test lamp to simulate normal circuit loads. Use only a Rotunda Test Lamp (SGT27000) or 250- 300mA incandescent bulb test lamp. To avoid connector terminal damage, use the Rotunda Flex Probe kit for the test lamp probe connection to the vehicle. Do not use the test lamp probe directly on any connector.
- F1 CHECK THE KEY RELEASE INTERLOCK ACTUATOR CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Ignition OFF.
- Disconnect Key Release Interlock Actuator C2434.
- Set the park brake.
- Select NEUTRAL.
Is the test lamp illuminated?
Yes INSTALL a new Key Release Interlock Actuator. REFER to: Ignition Lock Cylinder Housing No GO to F2 - F2 CHECK THE KEY RELEASE INTERLOCK ACTUATOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
- Disconnect BCM C2280D.
- Disconnect Key Release Interlock Actuator C2434.
- Measure:
Is the resistance less than 3 ohms on each circuit?
Yes GO to F3 No REPAIR the circuit. - F3 CHECK THE KEY RELEASE INTERLOCK ACTUATOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
- Disconnect C2280D.
- Disconnect C2434.
- Connect:
Positive Lead Measurement / Action Negative Lead C2434-2 Ground
Does the test lamp illuminate?
Yes REPAIR the circuit. No GO to F4 - F4 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 and all other previously disconnected connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
- Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
Yes CHECK OASIS for any applicable TSB, GSB, SSM, or FSA. If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles 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.
