Circuit/System Verification
1. Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the 12V battery terminals. The voltage should be between 12.6
and 15.0 volts.
瀚慖f not within the specified range, refer to Charging System Test (See: Starting and Charging/Testing and Inspection/Component Tests
and General Diagnostics/Charging System Test).
2. Observe the scan tool BCM Battery Voltage parameter and the Batt. Voltage High Res. parameter. Both readings should be between 12.60
and 15.00 volts.
Circuit/System Testing
1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connectors at the BCM.
2. Ignition OFF and scan tool disconnected, open and close the driver door, and wait 1 minute. Test for less than 5 ohms between the following
ground circuit terminals and ground:
* Terminal 1 X3
* Terminal 5 X3
* Terminal 9 X4
瀚慖f greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance.
3. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the following 12V B+ circuit terminals and ground:
* BCM B+ terminal 3 X3
* High resolution B+ terminal 10 X4
瀚慖f the test lamp does not illuminate, test the appropriate 12V B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.
4. If all circuits test normal, replace the BCM.
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification (See: Verification Tests) after completing the diagnostic procedure.

Engine Electrical
DTC B1527
Diagnostic Instructions
* Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic System
Check - Vehicle) prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
* Review Strategy Based Diagnosis (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Strategy Based Diagnosis) for an
overview of the diagnostic approach.
* Diagnostic Procedure Instructions (See: Testing and Inspection/Initial Inspection and Diagnostic Overview/Diagnostic Procedure
Instructions) provides an overview of each diagnostic category.
DTC Descriptor
DTC B1527 00
- High Parasitic Load
Circuit/System Description
The body control module (BCM) monitors the state of charge (SOC) of the electrical system. If the BCM senses that the battery current was less
than -2 amps and the SOC at key-on is 30 percent less than it was when the engine was last running, DTC B1527 00 will set.
