Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The sunroof tilt position select switch is connected directly to the controller and provide detent positions for open, off and close. The control switch completes the circuit provided by the sunroof motor module, a reference ground Input and a pull-up voltage provided by the analog to digital switch input. The control switch places a different resistor ladder network in the circuit depending on the function selected. The controllers analog to digital switch input reads the resulting voltage range and determines the function.

Conditions for Running the DTC

The ignition is ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

B369C 02

The sunroof module has detected and reported via serial data that the sunroof tilt position select switch circuit is shorted to ground.

B369C 05

The sunroof module has detected and reported via serial data that the sunroof tilt position select switch circuit is open or shorted to voltage.

B369C 59

The sunroof module has detected and reported via serial data that the sunroof tilt position select switch has been the same active position for 20 s after the glass has stopped moving in the requested direction due to reaching the end of the allowable motion.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTC B369C is stored in the body control module (BCM) memory.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The BCM no longer detects a malfunction in the sunroof tilt position select switch circuit.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S88 Sunroof Tilt Switch. It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.

2. Test for less than 10 ohms between the low reference circuit terminal 1 and ground.

If 10 ohms or greater

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M69 Sunroof Motor.

2. Test for less than 2 ohms in the low reference circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms , test or replace the M69 Sunroof Motor.

If less than 10 ohms

3. Ignition ON.

4. Verify the scan tool Sunroof Tilt Switch parameter is Short to Battery.

If not Short to Battery

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M69 Sunroof Motor.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 4 and ground.

If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.

If infinite resistance, replace the M69 Sunroof Motor.

If Short to Battery

5. Install a 5 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 4 and the low reference circuit terminal 1.

6. Verify the scan tool Sunroof Tilt Switch parameter is Short to Ground.

If not Short to Ground

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M69 Sunroof Motor.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit terminal 4 and ground.

If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.

If less than 1 V

3. Test for less than 2 ohms in the signal circuit end to end.

If 2 ohms or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.

If less than 2 ohms, replace the M69 Sunroof Motor.

If Short to Ground

7. All OK.

Component Testing

Static Test

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S88 Sunroof Tilt Switch.

2. Test for 5.0-6.2k ohms between the control terminal 4 and the low reference terminal 1.

If not between 5.0-6.2k ohms
Replace the S88 Sunroof Tilt Switch.

If between 5.0-6.2k ohms

3. Test for 329-402 ohms between the control terminal 4 and the low reference terminal 1 while pressing the open switch.

If not between 329-402 ohms
Replace the S88 Sunroof Tilt Switch.

If between 329-402 ohms

4. Test for 872-1065 ohms between the control terminal 4 and the ground terminal 1 while pressing the close switch.

If not between 872-1065 ohms
Replace the S88 Sunroof Tilt Switch.

If between 872-1065 ohms

5. All OK
