DTC 35



DTC 35 Open or Grounded Vehicle Speed Signal Circuit






Circuit Description

A DTC 35 relates to the BPMV not seeing the speed signal from the VSS buffer. A faulty VSS buffer or CKT 696 condition can cause this DTC to set. Do not replace the BPMV for this DTC. A faulty BPMV will not cause this DTC to set.

Test Description

- Check the voltage at BPMV 10 way connector pins E and J.
- Check CKT 696 for open or short conditions.
- Check for a faulty VSS buffer.

Diagnostic Aids

Do not replace the BPMV for this DTC. A faulty BPMV will not cause this DTC to set.

If the voltage readings are low or varying, the battery, charging system or intermittent connections could be the cause. Check these areas before replacing any components.

Do not pierce the electrical connectors, wires, seals or insulation during testing. Doing so will break the seal and lead to corrosion and failure of the wiring and terminals.
