DTC Descriptor

DTC B2745

Traction Control Switch Circuit

For symptom byte information refer to Symptom Byte List

Diagnostic Fault Information

Antilock Brake System

Circuit/System Description

The body control module monitors the electronic stability control switch. When the electronic stability control switch is pressed once, the body control module will request the electronic brake control module via serial data to disable the traction control. When the electronic stability control switch is pressed and held for five seconds, the body control module will request the electronic brake control module to disable the stability control. The Electronic Brake Control Module will request the Instrument Cluster to turn the Traction Control Off and Stability Control Off indicator ON to notify the driver of the deactivation.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The body control module detects a short to ground on the signal circuit.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The body control module ignores the traction control switch signal input.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

  • When the condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.
  • The history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive fault-free ignition cycles have occurred.

Circuit/System Verification

1. Ignition ON.

2. Verify the Instrument Cluster indicators listed below turn ON and OFF when commanding the All Indicators ON and OFF with a scan tool.

  • Traction Control Off indicator
  • Stability Control Off indicator
  • Traction/stability Control indicator
  • If any indicator does not turn ON and OFF

Replace the P16 Instrument Cluster.

  • Go to next step: If all indicators turn ON and OFF

3. Verify the scan tool Body Control Module, Traction Control Switch parameter changes between Active and Inactive while pressing and releasing the S75 Traction Control Switch.

  • If the parameter does not change

Refer to Circuit/System Testing.

  • Go to next step: If the parameter changes

4. All OK.

Circuit/System Testing

NOTE: Circuit/System Verification must be performed before Circuit/System Testing.

1. Ignition OFF and all vehicle systems OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S75 Traction Control Switch. It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down.

2. Test for less than 10 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 1 and ground.

  • If 10 Ω or greater
  1. Ignition OFF.
  2. Test for less than 2 Ω in the ground circuit end to end.
    • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    • If less than 2 Ω, repair the open/high resistance in the ground connection.
  • Go to next step: If less than 10 Ω

3. Ignition ON.

4. Verify the scan tool Body Control Module, Traction Control Switch parameter is Inactive.

  • If Active
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module.
  2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal circuit terminal 14 and ground.
    • If less than infinite resistance, repair the short to ground on the circuit.
    • If infinite resistance, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
  • Go to next step: If Inactive

5. Install a 3 A fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 3 and ground.

6. Verify the scan tool Traction Control Switch parameter is Active.

  • If Inactive
  1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the X2 harness connector at the K9 Body Control Module, ignition ON.
  2. Test for less than 1 V between the signal circuit and ground.
    • If 1 V or greater, repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
    • Go to next step: If less than 1 V.
  3. Test for less than 2 Ω in the signal circuit end to end.
    • If 2 Ω or greater, repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
    • If less than 2 Ω, replace the K9 Body Control Module.
  • Go to next step: If Active

7. Test or replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

Component Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the S75 Traction Control Switch.

2. Test for infinite resistance between the signal terminal 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the open position.

  • If less than infinite resistance

Replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

  • Go to next step: If infinite resistance

3. Test for less than 2 Ω between the signal circuit terminal 1 and the ground terminal 3 with the switch in the closed position.

  • If 2 Ω or greater

Replace the S75 Traction Control Switch.

  • Go to next step: If less than 2 Ω

4. All OK.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the repair.

  • Front Floor Console Trim Plate Replacement
  • Control Module References for Body Control Module or Instrument Cluster replacement, programming and setup.

     Tire Pressure Monitor Operation

    This vehicle may have a Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS). The TPMS is designed to warn the driver when a low tire pressure condition exists. TPMS sensors are mounted onto each tire and wheel assembly, excluding the spare tire and wheel assembly. The TPMS sensors monitor the air pressure in the t

     Fuel (2.0L Turbo Engine)

    Premium Recommended Fuel Use premium 93 octane unleaded gasoline in your vehicle. Unleaded gasoline with an octane rating as low as 87 may be used, but it will reduce performance and fuel economy. Fuel (3.6L Engine) Regular Fuel Use only unleaded gasoline rated 87 octane or higher in your vehicle.
