DTC Descriptor

DTC B3930 02
- Child Security Lock Motors Circuit Short to Ground

Diagnostic Fault Information






Circuit/System Description

The child door lockout switch is on the driver door lock/window switch and controls the child locks on the rear doors as well as the rear window switches. When the BCM receives a command from the window lockout switch, it will apply voltage to the door lock security relay coil, this will energize the relay and the contact within the relay will then direct the voltage to lock the left rear and right rear child locks and then isolate them from the normal door lock system to prevent the rear doors from being opened by using the interior rear door handles.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Battery voltage must be between 9-16 V.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM detects a short to ground in the child security lock relay circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

* The interior rear door handles will always be disabled or will not lockout depending upon the latch states when the fault occurred

* The BCM will command the lockout indicator to flash ON and OFF for 30 seconds when the lockout switch is pressed to indicate a fault in the system.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* This DTC will be current for as long as the fault is present.

* When the fault is no longer present, the DTC will be a history DTC.

* A history DTC will clear after 50 ignition cycles.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify the operation of both interior rear door handles do not open the rear doors when commanding the Child Security Lock Motors ON with a scan tool.

If both interior door handles open the rear doors
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If both interior door handles do not open the rear doors

3. Verify the operation of both interior rear door handles will open the rear doors when commanding the Child Security Lock Motors OFF with a scan tool.

If both interior door handles do not open the rear doors
Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

If both interior door handles open the rear doors

4. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the KR113 child security lock disable relay It may take up to 2 minutes for all vehicle systems to power down.

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

If 10 ohms or greater

1. Ignition OFF.

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

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

If less than 2 ohms, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.

If less than 10 ohms

3. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 3 and the ground circuit terminal 1.

4. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Child Security Lock Motors ON and OFF with a scan tool.

If the test lamp is always OFF

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 body control module.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the control circuit and ground.

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

If infinite resistance

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

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

If less than 2 ohms, replace the K9 body control module.

If the test lamp is always ON

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the K9 body control module, ignition ON.

2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit and ground.

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

If less than 1 V, replace the K9 body control module.

If the test lamp turns ON and OFF

5. Test or replace the KR113 child security lock disable relay.

Component Testing

Relay Test

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the KR113 child security lock disable relay.

2. Test for 60-200 ohms between terminals 1 and 3.

If less than 60 ohms or greater than 200 ohms
Replace the KR113 child security lock disable relay.

If between 60-200 ohms

3. Test for infinite resistance between the terminals listed below:

* 4 and 3

* 4 and 5

* 4 and 1

* 5 and 1

If less than infinite resistance
Replace the KR113 child security lock disable relay.

If infinite resistance

4. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between relay terminal 3 and 12 V. Install a jumper wire between relay terminal 1 and ground.

5. Test for less than 2 ohms between terminals 4 and 5.

If 2 ohms or greater
Replace the KR113 child security lock disable relay.

If less than 2 ohms

6. All OK
