Circuit/System Description
The theft deterrent module (TDM) monitors the 12V battery positive (B+) voltage available to it. If the voltage at the TDM is between 6-9 volts, and the voltage being reported by a serial data message is greater than 9 volts,
then DTC B1424 00 sets.
Conditions for Running the DTC
• | The ignition switch is in Accessory or Run. |
• | This diagnostic runs every 100 milliseconds. |
Conditions for Setting the DTC
• | Voltage at the TDM 12V B+ circuit is between 6-9 volts. |
• | Reported 12V battery voltage received via serial data is valid and is greater than 9 volts. |
• | The above conditions have been met for 2 seconds. |
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• | The security indicator turns ON. |
• | The driver information center (DIC) displays the SERVICE THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM message. |
Conditions for Clearing the DTC
• | A current DTC clears when the 12V B+ at the TDM is greater than 9 volts, or if the voltage reported by serial data is less than 9 volts. |
• | A history DTC clears after 100 consecutive ignition cycles, if no failures are reported by this diagnostic. |
Diagnostic Aids
• | A low voltage DTC in multiple modules indicates a concern in the 12V charging system. |
• | Verify that the ground terminal G201 is clean and tight. |

Circuit/System Testing
- Engine running, accessories OFF, measure and record the battery voltage at the 12V battery terminals. The voltage should be between 12.6 and 15.0 volts.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the TDM. Refer to
Theft Deterrent Module Replacement.
- Ignition OFF and scan tool disconnected, open and close the driver door, and wait 1 minute. Test for less than 5 ohms between the ground circuit terminal 3 and ground.
⇒ | If greater than the specified range, test the ground circuit for an open/high resistance. |
- Verify that a test lamp illuminates between the 12V B+ circuit terminal 1 and ground.
⇒ | If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the 12V B+ circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. |
- If all circuits test normal, replace the TDM.
