BCM 0052 and 0050 codes

Post by oragex »

Has anyone had these codes ? I did a search but nothing clear other than 'internal permanent fault'. The CEM also has a 1A5F code that won't clear. Interestingly, there is no warning light or message. The ABS works fine on all wheels - tested during winter on ice. I can also hear the ABS pump humming when braking. Car is FWD 2003 STC

Two things common to both BCM DTCs are electrical distortion scrambling the data and defective control module. Pull the BCM connector and clean it. Check wiring for shorts and opens.

CEM-1A5F is CEM to BCM communication. This could be dirty connectors or wiring also.

Most likely it is an issue on the CAN high speed network not the electronics.

I haven't replaced the BCM but don't know its history from previous owner. Car was bought with 100k miles
Will look closely to the wiring and connectors
