DTC |
Description |
Fault Trigger Condition |
BCM B1A85:11 |
Ambient Light Sensor: Circuit Short To Ground |
A continuous memory and on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects a short to ground from the light sensor input circuit.
|
BCM B1A85:13 |
Ambient Light Sensor: Circuit Open |
An on-demand DTC that sets when the BCM detects an open from the light sensor input circuit.
|
Possible Sources
- Light sensor
- Wiring, terminals or connectors
-
BCM
Visual Inspection and Pre-checks
- Inspect the headlamp switch for damage.
- Inspect the light sensor for damage.
|
A1 CHECK THE MANUAL HEADLAMP OPERATION |
-
Place the headlamp switch in the HEADLAMPS and then OFF positions.
Do the headlamps operate correctly?
No |
REFER to: Headlamps (417-01 Exterior Lighting, Diagnosis and Testing).
|
|
A2 CHECK FOR VOLTAGE TO THE LIGHT SENSOR |
-
Disconnect: Autolamp/Sunload Sensor C286.
-
Place the headlamp switch in the AUTOLAMPS position.
-
Measure:

-
Measure:
Click to display connectors
Positive Lead
|
Measurement / Action
|
Negative Lead
|
C286-2
|
|

|
Measurement / Action
|
Negative Lead
|
C286-2
|
|
Ground
|
Is any voltage present?
|
A8 CHECK FOR CORRECT BCM (BODY CONTROL MODULE)
OPERATION |
-
Disconnect and inspect all BCM and all related in-line connectors.
-
Repair:
-
corrosion (install new connector or terminals – clean module pins)
-
damaged or bent pins – install new terminals/pins
-
pushed-out pins – install new pins as necessary
-
Reconnect the BCM and all related in-line connectors. Make sure they seat and latch correctly.
-
Operate the system and determine if the concern is still present.
Is the concern still present?
Yes |
CHECK OASIS for any applicable service articles: TSB, GSB, SSM or FSA.
If a service article exists for this concern, DISCONTINUE this test and
FOLLOW the service article instructions. If no service articles address
this concern, INSTALL a new BCM. REFER to: Body Control Module (BCM) (419-10 Multifunction Electronic Modules, Removal and Installation).
|
No |
The system is operating correctly at this time. The
concern may have been caused by module connections. ADDRESS the root
cause of any connector or pin issues.
