DTC Descriptor

DTC B1011 00

System Disabled Information Stored Malfunction

Circuit/System Description

The frontview camera module permanently monitors the serial data bus for error messages. When a malfunction is detected by the frontview camera module, the system will be disabled and an error message will be stored in the frontview camera module disable history buffer which is used to store information about the front camera features that are disabled.

Conditions for Running the DTC

• Ignition ON
• Frontview camera enabled

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The frontview camera module detects a malfunction.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The frontview camera module is disabled.
• The frontview camera module disable history buffer stores information why the system was disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.

Diagnostic Aids

The frontview camera module disable history buffers are used to store information about the frontview camera module features that are disabled. The buffers will only update if the disable condition changes.

Example: If the data received from the steering wheel angle sensor is Invalid across many ignition cycles then it will only appear in 1 history buffer and not all history buffers. If this condition is the current reason why the frontview camera module is disabled then it will be set in frontview camera module disable history buffer 1. If a new reason occurs, such as vehicle speed validity is invalid, then the invalid steering wheel angle sensor fault will shift into disable history buffer 2 and vehicle speed validity invalid will be in disable history buffer 1. Since there are only 4 disable history buffers, the invalid steering wheel angle sensor will age out if 4 other disable reasons occur since the last invalid steering wheel angle sensor event occurred. Frontview camera module disable history buffer 1 contains the current reason that one of the frontview camera module features is disabled.

The frontview camera module disable history buffers can display the following values:

• Lane Departure Warning Indicator Malfunction
• Lane Departure Warning Switch Malfunction
• Camera Obstructed
• Accelerator Pedal Position Out of Range
• Driven Wheel Speed Signal Invalid
• Non-Driven Wheel Speed Signal Invalid
• Brake Pedal Moderate Travel Signal Invalid
• Brake Pedal Initial Travel Position Achieved
• Lost Communication with Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module
• Invalid Data Received From Steering Wheel Angle Sensor Module

Front view camera module malfunction (forward collision alert - UEU)

Diagnostic Instructions

• Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
• Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
• Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The forward collision alert system is controlled by the front view camera module mounted on the windshield.

The forward collision alert system is always active and operates at speeds above 40 km/h (25 mph). When the system detects a vehicle in the path ahead, the green vehicle ahead alert indicator in the instrument cluster is illuminated. When approaching another vehicle too rapidly, the collision alert symbol will flash in the instrument cluster and the radio will simultaneously give an audible alert sound. The red collision alert display will stay continuously illuminated if the vehicle ahead remains much too close. These actions are requested by the front view camera module via serial data to the instrument cluster. The forward collision alert switch is part of the left steering wheel controls and is used to adjust the timing sensitivity of the front collision alert system

Diagnostic Aids

Certain factors will affect the operation of the forward collision alert system. Forward collision alert does not warn the driver of any objects that are not detected as a vehicle, like e.g. pedestrians, animals, signs, guard rails, bridges, construction barrels or other stationary or slow moving objects. In some cases the camera may detect a vehicle that is not in the path ahead, or the system may occasionally provide unrealistic alerts. This could respond to a turning vehicle ahead, guard rails, traffic signs, or other stationary objects. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service. When the system is operating properly, the green vehicle ahead alert indicator will illuminate on the vehicle direction display when the system detects a vehicle in the path ahead. This indicates that all of the required operating conditions are met. The green vehicle ahead alert indicator will not appear when the system is having difficulty seeing other vehicles on the road or if the view of the front view camera is blocked with mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, if the windshield is damaged, or when weather limits visibility, such as while driving in fog, rain, or snow conditions. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service.

Additionally, the Front View Camera Disable History can give useful hints about what affected the operation of the lane departure warning system. For the Front View Camera Disable History refer to DTC B1011.

Parking assist system malfunction

Diagnostic Instructions

• Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
• Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
• Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Circuit/System Description

The ultrasonic parking assist system is designed to identify and notify the driver of an object in the vehicle's path when reversing at speeds of less than 8 km/h (5 MPH). The distance and location of the object is determined by four object sensors located in the rear bumper. The parking assist system will notify the driver using an audible signal through the radio.

Diagnostic Aids

When the "Park Assist Off", "Park Asst Blocked See Owners Manual", or "Park Assist Blocked See Owners Manual" message is displayed in the DIC the disable reason is stored in the Park Assist Disable History.

The scan tool Park Assist Disable History parameters are a list of the seven previous reasons the parking assist system was disabled. These parameters may help in the diagnosis of an intermittent concern or a customer concern which is the result of normal system operation. The following is a brief description of potential causes which may aid in diagnosis:

• Manual Disable - The parking assist system has been disabled by the vehicle operator through the audio system personalization menu.
• Hitch/Object Attached - The front and rear parking assist control module is detecting an object that is attached to the vehicle. Common items such as a hitch receiver, trailer, or a bicycle rack may cause this concern. Additionally, damage to the rear of the vehicle or a misaligned sensor may cause this concern. If the vehicle is damaged in a manner that causes the sensor to detect the bumper itself, the front and rear parking assist control module will interpret this as an attached object and disable the system. Carefully inspect the bumper, bumper mounting surface, and sensor retainers before continuing with normal diagnosis. After the detected cause has been addressed the vehicle must be driven at speed greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH).
• Reverse Overspeed - The vehicle is travelling too fast in reverse at speeds of greater than 8 km/h (5 MPH).
• Inhibit - The front and rear parking assist control module has lost or received invalid GMLAN signal(s).
• Sensor Disturbance - An outside interference is causing sensor movement. Such interference may be caused by a heavy pounding, like that of a nearby jackhammer, or large changes in pressure, such as a large truck's air brakes.
• Sensor Ring Time - If the sensor fails its own diagnostic initialization the front and rear parking assist control module will set this error. After the detected cause has been addressed the vehicle must be driven at speed greater than 40 km/h (25 MPH). The following is a list of reasons this cause may have set:

• One or more of the sensors may be blocked by snow, mud, ice, or other debris. This might happen after going through a car wash in cold weather.
• Silicone insulator surrounding sensor may be missing, cut, or twisted.
• Improperly installed sensor, sensor may be crooked due to a tight wire harness.
• One or more of the sensors may be scratched or the paint may be chipped.
• Excessive paint thickness on a sensor may cause an excessive sensor ring time. When replacing or refinishing a sensor, do not apply an excessive amount of paint or clear coat.

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

When the transmission is placed into REVERSE, a 12 V signal is sent to the rearview camera indicating that camera operation is requested. Ignition voltage and ground are supplied to the rearview camera. The rearview camera sends video information to the radio through a video signal + and a video signal - circuit. A grounded shielding also wraps the video signal circuits to reduce electronic interference which may degrade the video signal and cause a distorted or otherwise degraded image.

Diagnostic Aids

A poor video image can be caused by ice, snow, and mud buildup on the lens of the rearview camera. Also, extreme lighting conditions can affect performance, such as operating in the dark or with bright sunlight shining on the camera. Extreme high or low temperatures can also affect the image quality. An open in the shield of the video signal circuit can also cause a distorted screen.

Side object system malfunction

Diagnostic Instructions

• Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
• Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
• Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The side object sensor modules are located on each side of the vehicle behind the rear fascia and are not directly visible from outside the vehicle. The sensors use radar to determine the presence of objects nearby. The left side object sensor is the master that communicates on serial data. There is a private communication network between the left and right sensors. The scan tool can communicate only with the left sensor.

Side blind zone alert is active when the vehicle is out of park or the parking brake is off on manual transmission vehicles. If a vehicle is detected in the side blind zone, the warning symbols will turn illuminate on the appropriate side. The warning symbols will vary brightness based on the ambient light conditions.

When an object is detected in the left side blind zone, the side object sensor module sends a message to the right sensor through serial data. The right sensor then supplies voltage to illuminate the visual indicator on the left side outside rear view mirror. When an object is detected in the right side blind zone, the right side object sensor will supply a voltage to illuminate the visual indicator on the right side outside rear view mirror. Each sensor is supplied B+ and ground. Ground is provided through the outside rearview mirror harness.

Diagnostic Aids

• When the ignition is turned on, or the engine is started, both outside rearview mirror displays will briefly come on to indicate that the system is operating.
• The conditions for disabling the side blind zone alert system are captured by DTCs. The drivers information center will display Service Side Detection System if one of the sensors has failed.
• The side blind zone system will be disabled if the driver has selected the Off mode through vehicle personalization menus. The selected mode is retained over ignition cycles. A driver information center message stating that the side blind zone system is off shall be displayed and the outside mirror indicators will be OFF.
• The side blind zone may be temporarily unavailable if a blockage condition exists (i.e. mud/snow buildup in front of the sensor). A driver information message "Side Detection System Unavailable" will be displayed. The side blind zone system transitions back to the normal operating state when the blockage is removed. Bumper sticks, fascia damage, labels, and heavy rain storms may also cause this condition. The blockage determination is performed with the vehicle in a drive gear.
• Because the sensors are NOT identical, they must NOT be swapped from one side of the vehicle to the other in an attempt to isolate a concern. Sensors should also NOT be swapped from one vehicle to another.
• The side blind zone system is designed to ignore stationary objects; however, the system may occasionally detect guard rails, signs, trees, shrubs, or other stationary objects as an object in the blind zone. This is normal system operation and does not require service.
• The side blind zone system may indicate an object in the blind zone if a trailer is attached to the vehicle, or a bicycle or object is extending out to either side of the vehicle. This is normal operation and does not require service.

Lane departure warning system malfunction

Diagnostic Instructions

• Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
• Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
• Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

Diagnostic Fault Information

Circuit/System Description

The lane departure warning system is enabled and disabled through the lane departure switch. When enabled, the lane departure warning indicator will illuminate. The switch and indicator are connected to the frontview camera module. The frontview camera module supplies a reference voltage to the lane departure switch. When the switch is pressed, the signal circuit is grounded. When enabled, the frontview camera module will illuminate the indicator located in the switch when lane departure warning system is enabled.

When the system is operating and can detect the lane markings, the frontview camera module will request via serial data communications that the instrument cluster illuminates the green lane departure ready-to-assist indicator. If the frontview camera module detects that the vehicle unintentionally crosses a lane marking without the turn signal being used, the module will request the vehicle direction display to flash the amber lane departure warning indicator. An audible warning will also sound three times when the amber lane departure warning indicator in the vehicle direction display is flashing.

Diagnostic Aids

Certain factors will affect the operation of the lane departure warning system. When the system is operating properly, the green lane departure warning indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster. This indicates that all of the required operating conditions to permit lane departure warning have been met. The green lane departure warning indicator will not appear when the system is having difficulty seeing the lines on the road or if the view of the front view camera is blocked with mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, if the windshield is damaged, or when weather limits visibility, such as while driving in fog, rain, or snow conditions. This is normal operation, the vehicle does not need service. Additionally, lane departure warnings may occasionally occur in a properly operating vehicle due to tar marks, shadows, cracks in the road, or other road imperfections. This is normal system operation and the vehicle does not require service. The driver information center may also display Lane Departure System Unavailable due to the temporary conditions listed above.

Additionally, the Front View Camera Disable History can give useful hints about what affected the operation of the lane departure warning system. For the Front View Camera Disable History, refer to DTC B1011.
