DTC Descriptor
DTC P0513: Theft Deterrent Key IncorrectCircuit/System Description
The remote control door lock receiver (RCDLR) sends the prerelease password to the engine control module (ECM) via the serial data circuit. The ECM then sends a challenge to the RCDLR. Both the ECM and RCDLR perform a calculation on this challenge. If the calculated response from the RCDLR equals the calculation performed by the ECM, the ECM will allow vehicle starting.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition is in the ACCESSORY or RUN position.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The calculated response from the RCDLR does not equal the calculation performed by the ECM.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
| • | The security indicator will illuminate. |
| • | Vehicle starting will be disabled. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
| • | A current DTC P0513 will be when a valid calculation is received. |
| • | A history DTC will be cleared after 40 malfunction-free ignition cycles or when a scan tool is used to clear DTCs. |
Diagnostic Aids
The "key" referenced in the DTC descriptor does not refer to the vehicle key. In this case, "key" is referring to the challenge response.

Circuit/System Verification
Important: Because of normal system communications between the RCDLR and ECM, any theft deterrent B-codes must be diagnosed prior to the diagnosis of P-codes.
Perform the 10-Minute Immobilizer Relearn procedure. Refer to Immobilizer System Component Programming . The ECM should successfully complete the password learn and the vehicle should start.
| ⇒ | If the ECM does not complete the learn or vehicle starting remains disabled, replace the ECM. |
Repair Instructions
Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.

DTC P0513: Theft Deterrent Key IncorrectCircuit/System Description
The theft deterrent module (TDM) sends the prerelease password to the engine control module (ECM) via the serial data circuit. The ECM then sends a challenge to the TDM. Both the ECM and TDM perform a calculation on this challenge. If the calculated response from the TDM equals the calculation performed by the ECM, the ECM will allow vehicle starting.
Conditions for Running the DTC
Ignition is in the ACCESSORY or RUN position.
Conditions for Setting the DTC
The calculated response from the TDM does not equal the calculation performed by the ECM.
