About B3265

B3265 is a manufacturer-specific body diagnostic trouble code recorded for Holden vehicles. It belongs to the B-prefix family of codes, which covers body, interior, airbag, or comfort-electronics faults.

When B3265 is stored, the module has detected an electrical-circuit fault in the wiring, connector, or driver associated with the named component.

Scanning & clearing: Body (B) codes are often stored in the body control module, airbag module, or climate module. A basic OBD-II tool usually will not read body codes — an enhanced or OEM-level scan tool is typically required.

B3265 is a manufacturer-specific code. The same code string on a different make may have a different meaning. Always confirm the code's definition against the vehicle's service information for the specific make and model under test.

Code Information

DTC B3265 relates to the trunk (boot) lid latch circuit, which the Body Control Module (BCM) controls and monitors to lock, release, and confirm the position of the trunk latch. The latch assembly contains an electric actuator or release solenoid and a position or ajar switch that feeds status back to the BCM, so the module can tell whether the latch has actually moved when commanded. B3265 sets when the BCM detects an open circuit, a short to ground, or a short to voltage on the latch control or feedback wiring, or when the feedback does not agree with the commanded state. When the code is se...
