Pinpoint Test AZ: DTC B1317

Refer to Wiring Diagram Set 123, Memory Seats for schematic and connector information. Diagrams By Number

Normal Operation

The Driver Door Module (DDM) monitors the voltage from the battery to determine if it goes above or below specific thresholds and sets DTC B1317 in continuous memory if the DDM (Driver Door Module) detects high battery voltage above 15 volts on circuit SBP13.

- DTC B1317 (Battery Voltage High)- a continuous memory DTC that sets when the DDM (Driver Door Module) detects battery voltage above 15 volts on circuit SBP13.

This pinpoint test is intended to diagnose the following:

- Charging system concern

- DDM (Driver Door Module)

PINPOINT TEST AZ : DTC B1317

NOTE: DTC B1317 may be stored in the module memory due to previous battery charging or vehicle jump starting events.

AZ1 CHECK FOR DTC B1317, B1676 OR P0563 SET IN OTHER MODULES

- Ignition ON.

- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: (All Modules) Self-Test.

- Retrieve the continuous memory DTCs from all modules.

Is DTC B1317, B1676 or P0563 (PCM) set in more than one module?

Yes
REFER to Charging System to diagnose an overcharging condition.

No
GO to AZ2.

AZ2 CHECK THE BATTERY VOLTAGE

- Turn off all interior/exterior lights and accessories.

- Start and run the engine at approximately 2,000 rpm for 3 minutes while monitoring the battery voltage.

Does the battery voltage rise to 15 volts or higher?

Yes
REFER to Charging System to diagnose an overcharging condition.

No
GO to AZ3.

AZ3 RECHECK FOR DTC B1317

- Turn the engine off.

- Ignition ON.

- Enter the following diagnostic mode on the scan tool: DDM (Driver Door Module) Self-Test.

- Clear the continuous memory DTCs.

- Carry out the DDM (Driver Door Module) self-test.

Is DTC B1317 present?

Yes
INSTALL a new DDM (Driver Door Module). REFER to Driver Door Module (DDM) . TEST the system for normal operation.

No
The system is operating normally at this time. The DTC may have been set previously during battery charging or while jump starting the vehicle.
