2012 Chevrolet Cruze
Fault: missing dimensions, trunk, feet and cigarette lighter. No trunk relay control.
There are errors in the trunk and dimensions.

All of this is controlled by the electronic body control module - Body Control Module (B CM).
The ECU ID of this car is 13574841. Let's start the repair.
In most cases, repairing this computer is much more profitable than replacing it with a used one with registration and garters.

The body control unit in Cruz is located under the center console in the center at the front. In other words, on the floor under the radio.
Access for dismantling is from the passenger side.

This ECU contains the configuration of a specific car, as well as keys and wine numbers.
With someone else's ecu without registering your wine, pin, configuration and keys, the car will not start.
In some cases, when connecting someone else's computer to your car, you can get out of sync blocks and a big problem in restoring everything to its place.
It is strongly not recommended to connect an unprepared BCM ECU from someone else's car to your own.

We take out the ECU and, according to the electrical circuit diagram, call all the legs of the devices that refuse to work with us.
We find all the faulty channels and change the burnt out elements.
The system is checked for functionality, first on the table, and then on the car.

This defect is caused by an overcurrent in one or more channels controlled by the BCM ECU.
The most common is the installation of additional lamps on any of the channels or the installation of lamps not approved by manufacturers.
Less common a short circuit in the lamps. Even less often, a short circuit in the electrical wiring due to frayed wires.

Before installing another or repaired unit, you need to eliminate all the malfunctions that led to its failure. Otherwise, the defect will repeat itself in the near future.

I carry out all types of diagnostics of Chevrolet cars.
I repair BCM ECU, motor ECU, SRS ECU, etc.
Binding a used engine ECU or BCM.
I reset any ECU for tying new or used keys.
I perform mileage correction in all ECUs of this vehicle.

The cost of repairing an ECU is from 3000 rubles **.
The cost and possibility of repair can be accurately calculated only after diagnostics of all systems interconnected with this unit.
The cost of diagnostic work is not included in the cost of repairing an ecu and is paid separately.
On average, diagnosing the system, finding and eliminating the cause of the short circuit in the high-speed rail ECU costs between 1500-3000 rubles **.
The repair time depends on the availability of spare parts in each case. The procurement period for the necessary parts can range from 1 day to 3 weeks.
Most spare parts for these ecu are in stock. Whenever possible, I carry out repairs within 1 business day.

** All indicated costs of services are relevant for the year of writing the article and are not the final cost of work in each individual case.
Indicated for the concept of the order of value for a particular work.

This comrade began to screw the decorative (standard) lining of the inner left pillar at the driver's feet with a self-tapping screw.a large harness passes through. The self-tapping screw touched several wires, including the power one (red with a green stripe), twisted it with a screwdriver and managed to pull them to the body (mass). thereby knocked down the power fuse of 100A (they are located above the battery). The wires were repaired. at 80A (near). everyone tried everything, it worked errors on BCM-no. They turned on the rear fog lights, and two errors appeared. A wire was wound to the fuse number 65 (rear PTF) on the control winding of the relay for the front fog lights. with abnormal wiring (collective farm) but claims that it all worked before.

As a result, the dimensions do not shine and the trunk lock does not work.

Well, and accordingly, rear and (collective farm) PTFs do not work

Did I understand correctly, has the car been repaired?

I may not have written it correctly.
At first everything worked. But after turning on the PTF. The dimensions went out and the PTF did not turn on + the trunk then it works but it doesn’t
I don’t understand what’s the matter. It seemed to me that the fuse clicked around 65. On Monday we will disassemble the mounting block.

To ensure comfort in the cold season, the Chevrolet Cruze car owner has the ability to turn on heated seats, as well as heated windshield.

Some trim levels allow for a warm steering wheel surface and a heated rear row of seats.

ATTENTION! Found a completely simple way to reduce fuel consumption! Don't believe me? An auto mechanic with 15 years of experience also did not believe until he tried it. And now he saves 35,000 rubles a year on gasoline! Read more"

Seat heating elements can be either branded or from a third-party manufacturer. The branded seat back heating has an article number 96875817. Its price starts from 2700 rubles. The seat cushion heating has an article number 95225585. Its average market price is 3800 rubles.

Good alternatives from third-party manufacturers are mats from VAZ 2110 and from Priora. They fit perfectly on a Chevrolet Cruze car. The price for non-branded products starts from 1000 rubles for a set for a seat.

You can also supply heating from the Emelya company. According to some car owners, it has good characteristics and a long service life.

Emelya's cost varies from 900 to 2000 rubles. Emelya, when connected, has a total resistance that ranges from 2.7-2.8 Ohm, which prevents the heating from being turned off by the control unit.

When operating a Chevrolet Cruze car with a 1.6 and 1.8 liter engine, car owners may encounter a problem with the front seat heating not working. The car owner usually discovers the failure by himself by the cold seat or back. The reasons why the heating is turned off can be different.

If the heating does not work completely in the car, then this problem may indicate the need to replace the fuse. A characteristic feature is the simultaneous absence of a heated steering wheel. This malfunction can be corrected by replacing the failed fuse.

If the seat heating system is constantly on and does not turn off, then the car owner needs to diagnose and replace the relay.

In the event of a breakdown of this automation device, the heating system can be in one continuous mode "on" or "off".

Another reason why the mat does not heat up may be a malfunction of the temperature sensor. This problem can be eliminated quite simply by replacing the temperature sensor.

Another reason for the inability to turn on the heating is that the button has received mechanical damage. To eliminate the malfunction, its replacement is required.

If the control unit stopped working, then most likely there was an open circuit. To eliminate this problem, the car owner needs to find a rupture of the heating element spiral and solder at the break. This nuisance is accompanied by the fact that the control unit sees neither resistance nor load, therefore it turns off the circuit almost immediately after turning on the heating.

If the car owner recently had to change the mats, and when the engine starts, the heating control unit turns off after 1 minute, then most likely the problem is in the resistance that arose when choosing a connection scheme.

The driver is required to check the resistance of the heating element so that it does not exceed 5 ohms.

If the car owner has serious problems with the heating elements of the seats, which he cannot cope with on his own, in this case it is recommended to entrust the repair to specialists.

In order to successfully replace the heated seats in a Chevrolet Cruze car, the car owner will need a set of tools and materials, which are shown in the table below.

Chevrolet arrived to replace bcm, I thought I would just do with the transfer of the lady.

but digging already I understand that not everything is so simple.

on the native bcm there is no distant one, the wipers do not work, the rear windows do not work, the signal, the heated seats, the buttons on the radio

when I put the donor, the latch on the selector stopped working and the driver's window lifter started heating

the native block was already with a soldered eeprom, as always, there are no details.

the links to tis online are all dead, I haven't even found the pinout entirely yet, but I came across a bunch of topics and noticed that in such a volume of non-working it occurs only after replacing the block, and everything is solved by binding online, in fact, who thinks about this?

on the scanner, the activation signals of the entire BCM sees, but does not include

If everything is solved only by binding, who in St. Petersburg can help and the conditions?

I didn't think that everything was so sad with the cruise, on the site I saw that you can even buy sps for an hour for 2.2 euros, will it work through passthrue? maybe at least who knows this, do not send it to the client's officials

MDI is necessary and good quality is desirable.

thank you for TIS, about MDI, I just asked the question who is ready to help in St.

SPS via passthru works for cruise, tested for openport! And even on the gprs channel.

in general, it did not work, no one warned that it is necessary to be a legal entity and register an extended license, at the moment it gives an error, and the same error happens to those who have a high-quality copy of MDI

I made a request for an extended license, but it is not yet known how long these GM sheep will be calving, VCI also made a request for everyone, maybe through VCI it will be possible

Yes, it's real to register, I would just know all the subtleties earlier, for example, I would not take access for a day, now, in fact, time is passing and I can not do anything, there are still those Jews, I have not downloaded the programs yet, and time is already dripping, in general there is no impression of GM, a sharazhkina office that takes money but does not really provide anything, so what's the use of SPS without advanced functions? They may be stingy in English in footnotes and warned, but in general terms. generally disappointed.

Who will need SPS all the same, plan the registration procedure for at least a day, preferably before that everyone register their office on the site, the system will give you a DUNS Number, then you need to register for GM, everything is written in the next topic, I will not repeat it, it is important that the company data on the site coincided with those that you enter on the GM site, and when registering, if you register only for SPS, it makes no sense even to initially buy access for more than an hour, after the first login you need to go to the tab " Request extended access“There, select the desired product and enter your D-U-N-S Number, and then wait for GM to verify the data, they promise within 24 hours. Now I'm stupidly waiting, I don't even know whether they will approve or not.

initially did not understand a little, it still turns out within 24 hours there can only be a refusal, otherwise

If the D-U-N-S check is successful, GME Infotech will send a letter by post to
registered user address with a unique activation code. This activation code
must be entered on the GME Infotech website in order to expand access to
activate.

in general, quickly, this is only a request for the VCI code, as I understand it, but the GM-sheep are also silent about this for now as partisans

Alternatively, look for a specialist who has a proger with NEC support (V850). Faster BCM will clone

Where can I get something from which to clone? I have something to rewrite, only everything is never native there, a lot of people were poking around, so I could throw a percentage, only there is no what was originally, and for a long time, people have already bought a car like this

Haven't you had a taste of what is the problem now?

Everything is made easier, according to the machine's wines, two options for the BSM iron are determined and you check it with your own. If the hardware is “it”, then the block is unsubscribed and re-registered (if the motor is native and the system was synchronized, then the keys will be pulled from the motor corresponding tab).

Bsm on a high bus sits openport enough. On a remote basis, untie the selected BSM, untie it, encode and immo tighten it for an hour.

there is an immo, the car starts, what is wrong - the error is higher on the screen, googled about this that there are not enough rights

well, duck remotely with great rights to try))

Well, I don’t know such people, no one has responded to my topic either, everyone asks me to check the bus cannon to the access request, the bitch doesn’t have enough nerves to communicate with these Germans, I’m willing to shove this entire engineer into the space for the BCM so that the pancake can see what’s there , reads in his instructions but does not listen to me at all. it’s lucky that he doesn’t know Russian

Who can remotely configure the BCM via OP after replacement, the EEprom is soldered, the car starts up, the wipers, radio tape recorder, etc. do not work. In a personal.

in general, the continuation of the story, no longer bcm but with access that began with this BCM. Then in September I registered the organization and they sent a letter with a code to verify the address. The code probably came in early November, I don't remember exactly, but it took a long time. Entered, everything is ok, now I waited for the cruise to check. The actual screen for pouring the firmware into the engine ECU Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

In general, the matter ended with the fact that everything was sewn through MDI in years, apparently it does not determine the speed through CAN,

True, I had to dance with the MDI itself, so to speak, it was crookedly updated, the MDI manager saw it, but when I started SPS, the error M4404 fell out: Please restart the programming interface and click OK to try again! Press CANCEL to abort!

On cars Chevrolet cruze the comfort and light control unit often fails, while it is recommended to repair and replace faulty radio elements of the comfort control unit.

We make high-quality repair of the comfort unit, restore the performance of the external lighting of the Chevrolet Cruze car

Symptoms of a defective Chevrolet Cruze comfort unit:

  • The dimensions of the car on the left or right side are always included.

Chevrolet Cruze is a car designed with an eye on the Russian market. It is not surprising that quite a few of these cars are driving on our roads, and on the Internet, drivers are actively discussing the advantages and disadvantages of this model. The weak point of the Chevrolet Cruze is the heating system, the professional repair of which is quite expensive. Let us consider in detail the most common stove malfunctions on the Chevrolet Cruze and figure out which of them you can fix with your own hands.

A liquid-type heating system is installed on the Chevrolet Cruze. That is, cooling is carried out by transferring heat from the coolant (coolant). The cooling radiator is connected to the stove radiator by means of two hoses. They are routed through the engine compartment to the area under the central part of the dashboard, where the climate control unit is located, which includes the stove and air conditioning.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

The stove on the Chevrolet Cruze is located in the usual place - under the front panel

The air flow heated from the radiator moves through the system of pipes and air ducts. It is pumped by the stove fan, after which the air passes through the heater radiator and, with the help of dampers, is directed into the legroom of the driver and passengers, to the air ducts on the instrument panel, as well as to the glass heating air ducts. The Chevrolet Cruze has heating for the rear of the cabin and legroom for passengers sitting in the back.

The Chevrolet Cruze heating system is not reliable. Almost every owner of a car of this model sooner or later encounters a stove malfunction.

  • the stove does not warm up the air;
  • the device heats only from the driver's side;
  • the stove does not turn on;
  • the radiator is noisy;
  • hoses are leaking between the heater and cooling radiators.

Let's take a closer look at each malfunction and instructions for repairing the corresponding units.

If air enters from the deflectors, but does not warm up, it is worth taking a closer look at the stove radiator. And also signs of a heater radiator malfunction are:

  • reduction of the coolant level without visible damage to the cooling radiator and connecting hoses;
  • the smell of coolant in the cabin;
  • condensation on the windshield;
  • the smell of burning in the cabin.

Replacing the stove radiator with a Chevrolet Cruze is far from the easiest procedure, but if you are confident in your abilities, you can do it by following the instructions given:

  1. Drive the car onto an overpass or inspection pit.
  2. Cool the engine down.
  3. Open the cover of the expansion tank.
  4. Place a container for antifreeze with a volume of at least 6.5 liters under the radiator. For two-liter versions, a volume of at least 10 liters is required.
  5. Unscrew the cooling radiator drain valve. It is located at the bottom of the radiator.
  6. Drain all coolant.
  7. Remove the bonnet-to-glass windshield seal.
  8. Disconnect all clamps for attaching wires and pipes from the frill.
  9. Remove the trim itself. It is held in place by bolts and plastic latches.
  10. Disconnect the stove fan wires and remove the front of the fan housing.
  11. Remove the cabin filter housing.
  12. Remove the hoses for supplying antifreeze to the radiator of the stove and the steam hose.
  13. Remove the old radiator.
  14. Install the new radiator and the removed assemblies in the reverse order.
  15. Refill with new antifreeze.

At the end of the replacement procedure, it is necessary to check all the connections and pour new antifreeze into the cooling system, and then assess the quality of the work performed by turning on the stove.

Most often, in the Chevrolet Cruze heating system, the draft of the damper breaks down, directing the air flow through the radiator of the stove or bypassing it. If the switching of the heater operation mode occurs with an intense load on the stove fan, a strong air flow acts on the damper, creating critical loads.In this case, it is the traction eye that breaks down, since it is the least durable place of the entire system. This leads to the fact that hot air is supplied only from the passenger side. Cold air comes from the driver's side.

It's easy to avoid this nuisance. It is enough to reduce the blowing intensity or turn it off altogether before turning the heating on or off. In the event of a breakdown, the only way to restore the full functionality of the heating system is to repair.

Repairing a damper drive in a service can be expensive. However, the owners of "Chevrolet-Cruz" often resort to self-repair with the help of improvised means. To repair the rod, you will need to make or select a part that will replace the damper attachment eye.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

The owner of the Chevrolet Cruze made the lug of the damper independently

Carry out repairs using the produced lug and following the instructions:

10. Reinstall the rest of the previously removed assemblies.

Another common problem with the Chevrolet Cruze heating system is the breakage and leakage of the hoses connecting the radiators of the stove and cooling. This can happen for various reasons: wear of the hoses themselves, as well as the spacer rings, excess coolant, which expands when heated. But more often it is a combination of several or all of the reasons from this list.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

The appearance of smudges on the pipe indicates the need to replace the pipe or O-ring.

It is practically pointless to patch up leaks and ruptures in hoses, despite the high cost of new pipes. To eliminate the gaps, you will have to replace the pipes. If a leak is found not on the tube itself, but at the junction, it may be sufficient to replace the lantern ring.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

When the O-ring is worn out, the joint starts to leak

When buying special rings, you may be faced with the fact that the spacer does not match in thickness or diameter. This is especially true for those who order spare parts online. It is much cheaper and easier to purchase a set of spacer rings of different diameters. Among them, there will almost certainly be suitable ones.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

Spacer ring sets of different diameters and thicknesses are available at auto parts stores.

After repairing or replacing the radiator hoses of the stove, fresh antifreeze must be poured into the cooling system. It is important not to exceed the volume provided by the manufacturer. For engines with a working volume of 1.6 and 1.8 liters, it is equal to 6.3 liters, two-liter versions require 10 liters of antifreeze. This amount of coolant will ensure the proper operation of the stove and the engine cooling system.

Squeaking or rustling of the stove in the first and second operating modes is another common problem on Chevrolet Cruze cars. The sound disappears briefly after turning on the maximum airflow, but then reappears. This problem is caused by a malfunction in the electric motor that drives the impeller. Repairing the motor can save the situation, but most often the effect is temporary, and the noise returns. To reliably eliminate the problem of unnecessary sounds, it is better to replace the stove motor. The easiest way to get to the heater fan drive is through the front passenger footwell. This can be done by following the instructions:

  1. Remove the glove compartment. To do this, you need to disconnect the latches of the lower position of its cover, and then disassemble the hinges. Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair Illuminated glove compartment allows you to see its mounts
  2. Remove the side trim on the dashboard on the side of the passenger door. Unscrew the bolt hidden under it and remove the lower part of the front panel from the passenger side. Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair The lower part of the front panel can only be removed with the passenger door open.
  3. You will find a motor under the torpedo. Access to its mount is blocked by the air duct for the front passenger's feet. Unscrew the air duct. It is held together by one screw. Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair The stove motor is attached to the body with three screws
  4. Unscrew the three screws securing the motor, disconnect the power terminal and remove the motor.
  5. Install the stove motor and all removed units in the reverse order of dismantling.

A malfunction of the electric motor of the stove can manifest itself in another way. If, when the device is turned on with open vents, air does not enter the passenger compartment, the problem lies either in the motor or in the heating system controller.

Image - Chevrolet Cruze do-it-yourself comfort block repair

The Chevrolet Cruze stove controller has a standard set of buttons and functions

To determine in which of the nodes the malfunction lies, you need to remove the motor and connect it directly to the battery through the diagnostic connector. If the motor does not work, it should be replaced. If the motor is working properly, it is worth repairing the stove controller. To replace the stove control unit, it is better to turn to professionals, since the procedure will require not only dismantling more of the center console, but also competently connecting the electronics.

Obviously, problems with the Chevrolet Cruze heating system are quite common. By following the instructions, you can fix most of the faults yourself and at a minimum cost. Take care of the stove before the cold weather sets in and you will be able to drive in comfort in winter.

Symptoms of a defective Chevrolet Cruze comfort unit:

In our cold climate, a serviceable car heater is the key to comfortable vehicle operation. This applies to all cars, and Chevrolet Cruze is no exception. The problem is that the heating system on this car is clearly not designed for the harsh domestic climate and often fails. Fortunately, you can repair the heater on a Chevrolet Cruze yourself. Let's try to figure out how this is done.

The heating system on the Chevrolet Cruze is designed in the same way as on many other passenger cars. The company's engineers did not bring anything fundamentally new to this system. The antifreeze that cools the engine heats up and flows into the main radiator. From there, through a system of pipes, the liquid goes into the furnace radiator, blown by a small fan. Hot air from the stove radiator goes through the air duct system to the passenger compartment and heats it up.

The heating system "Chevrolet Cruze" practically does not differ from the systems on other passenger cars

The stove damper on the Chevrolet Cruze is designed to regulate the flow of warm air entering the passenger compartment from the heating radiator.
