Description

Fault Trigger Conditions

DTC

B1277:11

Reverse Lamp: Circuit Short To Ground

A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects a short to ground from the reversing lamps output circuit.

B1277:15 Reverse Lamp: Circuit

Short To Battery or Open

A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects an open or short to voltage from the reversing lamps output circuit.

U1000:00 Solid State Driver

Protection Active -Driver Disabled: No Sub Type Information

This DTC sets when the BCM has temporarily shut down the output driver. The module has temporarily disabled an output because an excessive current draw exists (such as a short to ground). The BCM cannot enable the output until the cause of the short is corrected, the Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) have been cleared and a successful self-test is run.

U3000:49 Control Module: Internal

Electronic Failure

This DTC sets when the BCM has permanently shut down the output driver. The module has permanently disabled an output because an excessive current draw fault (such as a short to ground) has exceeded the limits that the BCM can withstand. CORRECT the cause of the excessive current draw before installing a new BCM.
