DESCRIPTION
If the DCM (telematics transceiver) detects an error in the communication between the DCM (telematics transceiver) and the map light assembly (manual (SOS) switch) as a result of the DCM (telematics transceiver) self check, this DTC will be stored.
DTC No. | Detection Item | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
---|---|---|---|
B15C511 | Emergency Call Switch Circuit Short to Ground | Manual (SOS) switch impedance (Ω) is lower than the malfunction threshold for 10 seconds or more when the engine switch is on (IG) |
|
B15C513 | Emergency Call Switch Circuit Open | Manual (SOS) switch impedance (Ω) is higher than the malfunction threshold for 10 seconds or more when the engine switch is on (IG) |

PROCEDURE
1. | CHECK DTC |
(a) Turn the engine switch off.
(b) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(c) Turn the engine switch on (IG) and wait for 10 seconds or more.
(d) Turn the Techstream on.
(e) Clear the DTCs.

2. | INSPECT MAP LIGHT ASSEMBLY (MANUAL (SOS) SWITCH) |
(a) Remove the map light assembly (manual (SOS) switch). Click here |
|
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
13 (SIG1) - 14 (GND3) | Manual (SOS) switch not operated | 410 to 414 Ω |
13 (SIG1) - 14 (GND3) | Manual (SOS) switch operated | 81 to 83 Ω |
NG | ![]() | REPLACE MAP LIGHT ASSEMBLY (MANUAL (SOS) SWITCH) |
|
3. | CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DCM (TELEMATICS TRANSCEIVER) - MAP LIGHT ASSEMBLY (MANUAL (SOS) SWITCH)) |
(a) Disconnect the J157 DCM (telematics transceiver) connector.
(b) Disconnect the U12 map light assembly (manual (SOS) switch) connector.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection | Condition | Specified Condition |
---|---|---|
J157-21 (SIG1) - U12-13 (SIG1) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
J157-3 (SIG-) - U12-9 (GND3) | Always | Below 1 Ω |
J157-21 (SIG1) or U12-13 (SIG1) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
J157-3 (SIG-) or U12-9 (GND3) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
