Circuit Description

Simple Bus Interface (SBI) provides communications path between all door modules. Driver Door Module (DDM) contains both class 2 and SBI circuits allowing it to relay messages between class 2 bus and SBI. Each module connected to SBI is assigned its own recognition code. This code is used to identify which modules are communicating by periodically sending State Of Health (SOH) messages. When ignition switch is in ON position, each module communicating on SBI sends SOH message every 2 seconds to ensure proper system operation.

DTC U1161, U1162 or U1163 are set when any SBI communications problem occurs between DDM and other door modules. DTCs U1300 (class 2 bus shorted to ground) or U1301 (class bus 2 shorted to voltage) must not be current or diagnostic will not run. DTC U1161. U1162 and U1163 are stored in Driver Door Module (DDM). No driver warning message will be displayed for these DTCs. Loss of SBI will cause DDM to use default values for initialization data.

Under all fault conditions, DTC U1161, U1162 and U1163 will clear automatically when SBI becomes operational again or with each ignition cycle. History DTC will clear after 50 consecutive ignition cycles if condition for malfunction is no longer present. Current and history DTCs can also be cleared using scan tool.
