DTC Descriptor

DTC B1480 02

- Battery Rundown Protection Circuit Short to Ground

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The battery saver mode reduces the parasitic load of some modules during overseas shipment or during vehicle storage conditions. This improves

the drain time on the battery of up to 70 days without the battery going dead. When the vehicle is in transport/storage, some features may have

reduce functionality as a result being in the battery saver mode, such as disabling the Remote Function Actuator or content theft features.

The battery saver mode incorporates a latching relay that when enabled disconnects some modules from their ignition off power or memory power

sources. Battery saver mode is initiated by starting the vehicle and then turning the ignition key into the crank position for greater than 15 seconds.

The mode is disengaged by repeating the previous process causing the relay to latch in the other direction. This feature can be used as many times

as necessary if the vehicle is to be stored for an extended period of time.

Conditions for Running the DTC

* The system voltage is between 9-16 V.

* The DTC can only run when the output is activated.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM detects a short to ground in the battery saver relay set circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The module output driver will be shut down and not supply voltage to the battery saver relay set circuit.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The current DTC will clear when the module request for the output is removed or the malfunction is no longer present.

* A history DTC clears when the module ignition cycle counter reaches the reset threshold of 50, without a repeat of the malfunction.
