Circuit Description

The Passlock™ system is designed in order to prevent vehicle operation if the correct ignition key is not used in order to start the vehicle. The ignition key allows the lock cylinder to turn. Once the lock cylinder turns, the Passlock™ sensor (located inside the ignition switch assembly), sends an analog voltage code to the body control module (BCM). If the BCM receives the correct analog voltage code from the Passlock™ sensor, the BCM sends a class 2 serial data password to the vehicle/powertrain control module (VCM/PCM) which allow the vehicle to start.

After performing the learn procedure, the BCM is in the learn mode on the next ignition cycle. The BCM remains in the learn mode until the BCM receives 1 of 10 valid analog voltage codes from the Passlock™ sensor.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The BCM is in the learn mode. The BCM has not received a valid analog voltage code from the Passlock™ sensor.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The vehicle will start. The BCM will be in the learn mode. The security indicator will be ON.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

•	All current DTCs will clear after an ignition cycle has occurred without the fault recurring.

•	A current DTC B3031 will clear immediately after a valid Passlock™ analog voltage code is detected.

•	A history DTC clears once 100 concurrent ignition cycles occur without the fault recurring.

•	All history DTCs can be cleared using a scan tool.

Diagnostic Aids

•	Put the vehicle in the learn mode in order for the BCM to store DTC B3031 as a current code.

•	Use a scan tool in order to clear DTC B3031 after using this table.

•	When the ignition switch is turned from the OFF position to the CRANK position and then to the RUN position, the security indicator turns ON STEADY for 10 minutes and then the indicator turns OFF.

•	Perform the following steps in order to set DTC B3031:

1.	Open the Passlock™ sensor.

2.	Perform one of the two learn procedures.

•	Perform a visual inspection of the wiring.

•	Perform a visual inspection of the connectors.

Test Description

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

Tests for the proper operation of the 12v reference (Security Sensor Power) circuit, sensor ground circuit, and Passlock™ sensor signal (data) circuit. Troubleshoot the appropriate DTC prior to diagnosing DTC B3031.

Step	Action	Value(s)	Yes	No
1	Did you perform the Theft Deterrent (VTD) Diagnostic System Check?	--	Go to Step 2	Go to Diagnostic System Check - Theft Deterrent
2	Install a scan tool. Important: Do not start the vehicle. Momentarily rotate the ignition switch to CRANK. Release the ignition switch to ON. Select the body control module display DTCs function on the scan tool. Does the scan tool display DTC B3031 as a current DTC?	--	Go to Step 3	Go to Step 4
3	Does the scan tool display DTC [B2947, B2948, B2957, B2958, or B3033]?	--	Go to Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) List/Type	--
4	Use the scan tool in order to clear the DTCs. Turn OFF the ignition Start the vehicle. Select the body control module display DTCs function on the scan tool. Does the DTC reset?	--	Go to Step 3	System OK
