DTC Descriptor

DTC B2570 02

Rear Compartment Courtesy Lamp Control Circuit Short to Ground

Diagnostic Fault Information

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The body control module (BCM) applies battery voltage to the rear compartment courtesy lamp through the rear compartment lamp control circuit. When the BCM receives a rear compartment lid open input from the rear compartment lid latch, the BCM applies battery voltage to the rear compartment lamp control circuit illuminating the rear compartment courtesy lamp. In the event that the rear compartment lamp were to remain illuminated for more than 10 minutes with the ignition switch in the OFF position and no doors opened, the BCM will deactivate the rear compartment lamp control circuit to prevent total battery discharge.

Conditions for Running the DTC

  • Battery voltage must be between 9-16 V.
  • Rear compartment OPEN.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM detects a short to ground on the rear compartment courtesy lamp control circuit.

Actions Taken When the DTC Sets

The rear compartment lamp is inoperative.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

  • The condition responsible for setting the DTC no longer exists.
  • A history DTC will clear once 100 consecutive malfunction-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Testing

  1. Ignition OFF, exterior lamps OFF, rear hatch latch latched, disconnect the harness connector at the E8S Rear Compartment Courtesy Lamp.
  2. Test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.
  • If 5 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 5 ohms
  1. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and ground, ignition ON.
  2. Verify the test lamp turns ON and OFF when commanding the Cargo Lamp ON and OFF with a scan tool.
  • If the test lamp is always OFF
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X7 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
  1. 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 X7 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
  2. Test for less than 1 V between the control circuit terminal 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
  1. Test or replace the E8S Rear Compartment Courtesy Lamp.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the repair.
