Circuit Description

The vehicle theft deterrent (VTD) module checks the memory to see if the learn coded key setting is on. If the learn coded key setting is on, the VTD sets this DTC.

Running the DTC

The VTD must see the ignition switch input. The VTD cannot have a B1327 set as a current DTC.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

If the learn coded key setting is on, the VTD sets this DTC.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The VTD will learn the key code. No driver warning message will be displayed for this DTC.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The VTD module clears the current status of the DTC when the module does not see the learn coded key setting as on. The DTC will still be retrieved as a current DTC until the ignition switch is cycled. The DTC will become a history DTC at that time.

  1. In order to set this code, a key with a working transponder was read by the VTD (Pass Key® III) module. For that key to operate the vehicle, a 10 Minute or 30 Minute Re-Learn Procedure must be performed.
